JIUHB stepping any good for OC?

RIV@NVX · Feb 28, 2003, 04:09 PM

I have a chance to get:
AMD Athlon XP 1700+
JIUHB "0302"
9

Does anyone knows anything about OCing possibilities of this stepping?
I can get it for around $80 (yes, I know that it is high price, but this is Croatia

)
I have MSI KT3 Ultra-ARU (KT333), so I would like to know what about unlocking it's multiplier (it's unlocked by default on KT400 only, right

?).

There was a thread a while ago about various Thoroughbreds . . .
It said those that start with "J" are "low-end" Thor-B, and those that start with "A" are the high-end Thor-B.

I'm not sure what that designation means exactly, or if it would impact OC'ing, but it's some info

EDIT: here's the thread, sticky at Tech Discussion: TBreds or Low Breds? Which Codes Mean What

Good site to check O/C and steping is here.

Yes it is good for overclocking. You should be able to hit 2000mhz EASILY

You should never expect to be able to get anything out of any particular chip, since there will always be the extremely exceptional chips and the extremely unexceptional chips out there, even from the same stepping/week/etc... its very dependant on cooling, voltage, etc. too...

A's hit 2500 mhz with voltage + cooling, J's hit 2100 mhz with voltage + cooling, that's the thrend on the forums I read. (Futuremark, amdforums.com, etc)

Eh, I can't stand the fututemark forums...... No offense, those KIDS try to hard.

DaSnIpE · Mar 1, 2003, 02:02 AM

Futuremark forums are great, some guys, like QuadDamage and Jason57570 are OC'ing gods, then there's ppl like Cathar who custom make waterblocks, dam they are great, hehe.

No no no no..... The ones who just don't know SHIT. And just jibber jabber. And there are too many kids in there....kids=under 18 years old. Well, whatever. Just no my thing, no big deal..... hey SNIPE, get your PM from me. You never seem to check your PMs.

That looks good.

I have no possibility to get AIUHB.

It is identical to what I have. Same week, same stepping, same speed.
Manage to get mine running 200MHz x 10.5 @ 1.75v using SLK800.

Sry guys but some of you are WAY wrong, it's not rare to see a JUIHB hits 2300 mhz and I've seen alots people running 2500 mhz. The JUICB is able hit 2000 and often more. I'm running a JUICB at 2130. JUIGB is a bit better then JUICB and a bit "slower" then JUIHB. Oh yeah btw. i saw at VRzone a JIUHB "0302" hit 3200 mhz :o Offcourse it will require a goo mobo, if you wanna FSB overclock og get your tbred unlocked and clock using multi or better yet

get a epox nforce 2, best oc board and is able to unlock tbred cpu's from the BIOS
