venice on ice 2850mhz 1.38v -40°C

[S0nic]

is that prime stable?

many 3500+ clawhammers are able to do 2.8 on water with a bit more voltage prime stable, some can even do it on air..

[Cpt Twitchy]

I hope your back starts to feel better soon pc ice. Take it easy as your health is more important than some oc'ing although some may beg to differ.

stock volts + water @ 2.8Ghz = Once you get better keep up the great work.

i dont think pc ice wasted the few days he could play with this cpu running prime to see how stable an oc was

and this is the first time i hear that many clawhammers do 2.8ghz stable on water... i have seen SOME few, but its def not normal afaik.

and again, it did 2.8ghz stable for all benches with STOCK vcore, so im pretty sure speeds above 2.8ghz can be obtained prime stable with more vcore.

this is great news for me, now all i need is a preorder button

no screenshots???

[BadlyDrawnBoy]

Very nice

[SLaY3r07]

still on stock voltage

[bachus_anonym]

keep going, dave....

[bachus_anonym]

Dave... Did you have a chance to see what was the max 3D or SuperPI benchable for 3500+ with max voltage neccesary? Did upping voltage give any gains? Were the 4x512MB sticks all same brand-speed rating TCCD?

[chunkylover77]

the tccd's were very close to being the same..i do beleve if i have 2 more 512's of the same stuff then it would have worked..or mabey just a little bio's fixing..

it seemed as far as voltage went the chip didnt want any more voltage...but i was playing it very safe as it was not my chip. i tried 1.6v and there was no difference..

the PI was 33s @ that speed no patch.

i would realy like to have a chip like that in my gamer..

Now that is what I wanted to hear.

that's exactly what I was affraid to hear

2.8GHz is not too bad but unfortunately, not great either there are many 3000+ Winnies that are benchable on good air/water around 2.8GHz...
also, SSE3 extensions are not really that usefull at this very moment, besides the fact that SuperPi could be run with a patch now

it might seem that if one has 2.8GHz 3000+ Winnie, then be very carefull and do not sell it before you actually get Venice and test it...

~$300 for 3500+ Venice vs ~$150-220 for 3000+/3200+ Winnie..... hmmm

EDIT: I know, I know... latest Winnies are crap... but I had those that already have great clocking Winnies...

thanks for testing, dave

Will there be more "new's on this" , in this thread ? Any Ideal what a 3200 will go for ?? Thanks

[situman]

odd so it didnt respond to higher volts under water cooling. Bummer, so its either stock volts or nothing.

[gundamit]

every chip is different..im not taking any of these result's as a influence on the next venice chip..i bet the next one will love the super cold and more voltage.. and 2.8ghz on 1.4v is no bummer at all.

I like you're attitude. Stay positive. Under the same circumstances I'm sure some members would be wondering why God hates them so much and talking to their local suicide prevention hotline workers about how they think they'll never reach 3ghz.

Great stuff BTW. Keep it coming. I'm going to wait at least a month to let the dust settle from the general retail channel release, and then decide if I'm buying in. 2gig (4x512mb) 1T for EQ2 would be too tempting to pass on.

[cadaveca]

woah..let me get this straight...no gains at all from voltage?

[chefnr1]

well i have orderd a 3500+ Venice and i'll get mine at 050426 so it's just waiting time

Where did you order one from ? Do they have preorder for san diegos? anyone know where i could order one?

[chefnr1]

on this webshop in sweden, 4000+ is san diego but here is two links one for 3500+venice and one for 4000+
http://www.sbs.o.se/default.asp?artnr=ADA3500BPBOX
http://www.sbs.o.se/default.asp?artnr=ADA4000BNBOX
they have from 3000+ ->4000+

sweden? I think Ill wai ttill they get here I hoope it isnt too much longer for them to get here than there.

[chefnr1]

i think it's the same date in US as in swe

[Jasonhk]

thing is they dont seems liek they scale well with more voltage (:

[shuRe]

i hate to say it but i knew that everyone would be disapointed, they arnt that better than what we got atm.

Got any air results?

[Squid_Spit]

I sure hope they respond to voltage while 2.8ghz on water is good but not great, i wanna see 3ghz on water.

[AMDnewbie]

A little disappointed now but hope its just afew that behave this way

[JDizzle]

Oh, and I forgot to say....for those that are wondering if these cpu's scale with voltage: They do scale, and very well if I may add.

So the 3500+ doesn't scale and the 3800+ does according to what pc_ice and s7 have said.
