Which to take Opteron 144 <-> 146?

21st December 2005, 11:05

I know a shop where they have a Opteron 144 in stock but i wanted a 146. Those will be available mid January they say.

Now is my question wait until mid january or buy now a 144?

Are the 146 better OC'ers or do they just have a higher multi?

Thx

I doubt it will go to 2900Mhz like your venice

2.9Ghz

30.125 sec

3Ghz -> blue screen after 20 seconds (Ram is getting fairly high 273Mhz) but i tested it with 266Mhz divider and it was the same.

2.9Ghz is stable with widow open

2.8Ghz is perfect stable with normal room temperatures.

Maybe when he's burn in, i'll get some better results.

very interesting

I ordered the same CPU, from the same shop

He had still 2 CPU's left in stock. And a backorder for 15 more 144's. He hoped they would arrive by the end of this week.

I do not really know if he would sell the last two untill the others has arrived, because he said he would kept them for his own to make servers

I ordered mine at noon, got confirmation through Live Support on the site that he'd put one aside for me
