This is a little late, but my 3000+ Venice hit 2.6 GHz with only 1.45v. It was also cooled by ThermalRight XP-90 w/ Panaflo @ max (same cooler I'm using for my optie). It hit "only" 46 C after 12+ hours of Prime95 (42 according to Core Temp).

I got a venice LBBLE 0517DPMW...
and I managed to squeese out 2.8 GHz with 1.5V, hasn't tested with lower volts on that speed, but tested higher, dont know if's the cpu that can't handle more, if it's the mobo (ASUS A8N32-SLI DELUXE) that can't handle more HTT (311), or if it's my rotten PSU (Apevia Chameleon/Aspire 550W) that makes it stop. I'm getting a cooltek 600W in just a few days, so that answer will be coming.
I understand that week 0517 is a good week, this was just a cpu I bought really cheap on some norwegian sales forum (for about 30$ or so) and I expected a Winchester so I didn't even test it first, it actually has been lying on a shelf here for somewhere around 90 days now, until today I started checking up the stepping, and found out that it actually was a venice - not a winchester - and e pretty good venice aswell. Clocks about the same as my opteron 170 with this PSU, gets 2.8 Ghz there aswell.

I'm thinking about buying soem old singlecores, just to OC them (and maybe get some hwbot points if I'm lucky). The problem is that I have NO idea which steppings I should look for for the venice e6's. Anyone?
Wanna see a crazy cooling-project? check-out my FRIDGE-CHILLER or OCTS + Monstertube or OCTS + 230L LN2 + GPU SuperTubes or SUPER-SLOW-MOTION OC VIDEOS
Hmm, thanks I got some nice info there
But I'm also looking for 3500+ and slower CPU's, and they're not included in that database
Turn the vcore up to 1.45~1.5 and try turning up the HTT to 270 and higher
I have mine at 1.5V @ 2.8 GHz
EDIT: Have to edit this one some. On my 3000+ there's only 9x multi, so 2.8 GHz was on this multi, had to go HTT 311 and divider 166/333, but anyway RAM there is on 251~252 MHz or something like that, so it isn't bad either for CPU or RAM. E3 stepping ROCKS!

ive got a couple venice 3200's if you're interested.
asking 20 usd each

Look at this side but not much different cpu are posted there:
http://www.forumdeluxx.de/forum/show...light=stepping
Hey guys I have a 3200+ @ stock and I wanted to experiment with it a little bit. I've never OCed anything before in my life, is there a simple guide around here that shows what you have to watch out for, step by step.
Check this guide (from page4 and on)
http://www.madshrimps.be/?action=get...144&howtoID=58
Also spend a bit more time searching this forum for guides. There are plenty!
PD: Which is your motherboard?
I have a T-Force 6100 939.
http://www.pcstats.com/articleview.c...id=1966&page=5
This is the 5th page of a review of your board. It is useful in order to know which possibilities you have. One of the most important things for overclocking is the stability and the flexibility of your motherboard of tweaking (voltages mainly).
It seems that although your mobo is a MicroATX (not usually recommendable for overclocking) has quite decent options to play a bit
PD: Maybe we should move this to the hardware section. Create a thread with the name of your motherboard and ask a moderator to move our posts there.
That's the AM2 version, is there going to be a big difference if mine is a socket 939?
Not for overclocking (I checked both versions and, what differs in yours is that you have printer port and the version of the on-board LAN and sound chip are different)
Even if not were your motherboard, the rules to play are the same for everyone. Follow the steps you can find in every guide of overclocking:
- Basics
Hardware: to have a solid mainboard an a ROCKsolid PSU)
Software: for testing stability http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...d.php?t=117636 ->please read the whole thread to have wich version is easier/better for you and how to use it
- Find the max stable FSB [HyperTransport in your case] value
- Find the max stable mem value
- Find the max stable CPU value
- Finally adjust the parameters to most optimal for stability or whatever you want to use your OC'ed rig for.
good luck
