im with you jtroutma....

.....\me = sad. i was hoping to have a juicb xp1700 baby for when i get a a7n8x and have my agoia xp1600 baby that i got when they had their last 'blow out' sale for some 2ghz+ amd fun...

Mine has been confirmed and shipped from newegg. Should have it Wendsday. I will post what I get here. I never had any probelms with newegg either. Only place I buy from. The local shops are selling Xp1800+'s for $175.00. Worst part is they are actually SELLING them. People just don't have a clue. Normally parts are 2-3 times more expensive locally than newegg. :rolleyes:

I noticed something about Newegg though. After I made my order for that processor, then next day Newegg dropped their price to the $46.99 "BLOW OUT". NOW it seems that the price has gone right back up to the $49.99 "ON SALE"

Could there be a coincidence there!?!?

JayDee: How much did you pay for your XP? The $46.99 or the $49.99? Also let us know what chip you get when it arives.

I don't know. I got in on the 46.99 deal. Even if it is a A version I don't mind so much. If I can hit 1600mhz or so I am good with that. My best board only has a 12.5X multi anyway. I got one of the better XP1600+ and am stable at 1740mhz. If I can match that with the new one i will have two good DC crunchers. :)

hmmm....i noticed that too jtroutma. i got mine on the 49.99 deal about 12 hours before they went from "SALE!" to "BLOW OUT!", best of luck to those that are in the process of getting their tbred-somethings...

ive been looking around online and noticed about 3 different low end tbred b steppings. JUICB, JUIGB, and JUIHB
can somebody rank these from best overclocker to worst if possible?


edit: oops wrong person :D

JIUHB is definetly the best overclocker.
But you definetly got some very cheap cpu's there. Here after looking at latest currency exchange rate (boy is USD is at all time low)
1700+ cost 83$ here, but can I still find some JIUHB's or at least JIUCB's

Well, I took a gamble and got another one of those Tbreds from Newegg with the "increased" price :)

Most likely I will just get burned again but there is a slight chance that I might not. If I do, well I will just have 2 good CPUs to sell to my customers.

I hope this gamble works :D

Hope you got B, because the order code show tbred A (DLT3C)

That doesn't always mean thats what you are going to get. They just have that up there untill they accidentally find out the stepping changed. :D Most of the CPU's I get from them have a different stepping than what they have on the site. :shrug:

Looks like mine will not arrive till Thursday now. Seems to be taking it's time getting out of Cali.

I ordered two of these today:

http://www.vibecomputers.com/index.c...f=y&vID=138385

One for me and one for a friend (KnightElite). He has a pelt+ water setup, and I have H2O so we will see. If I can get over 2400MHz I will be very pleased; 2800 is absolutely amazing morphling1

dah! beat me to it pH! i got off work just now and was gonna post that exact link i found during school. seems its a +50$ USD premium on top of what newegg sells you, but you're definitely GUARANTEED a tbred B JUIHB.

im gonna ditch the tbred A i just got to a friend and put what i get from that towards one of those tbred's at vibe.

Those prices are in CAD not US dollars

duh, i should have known that. *looks in top right corner of page*:rolleyes:

even better deal though
98.45 CAD = 64.4660 USD
(\me woots for currency converters)

Not a stellar price, but I KNOW I am getting the stepping I want and I don't have to wait on customs to clear the chip or pay PST once it gets here. I could have had newegg ship to my in-laws (in US) and then have them send it to me as a gift, but this is faster.

Let me know how that turns out.

I am really hoping that my gamble will pay off but if it doesnt............................................ .........

Just got my Chip. :) It is a A version. :(

AXDA1700DLT3C
AIUGA 0247MPM

It is unlocked and I wil drop it in tonight when I get home and see if I can get it to work with 12.5X multi (max the board supports with manual jumpers 8K7A+) and whatever FSB I can acheive.

Holy *$^%!!!

I just got my "gamble" CPU in today. Its a:

AXDA1700DUT3C 9367337261136
JIUHB 0302WPMW 1999AMD

I think I just won the CPU lottery?!?!?!?!!?


PLEASE someone comfirm this!!!!!!!!

:eek: :eek: :drool: :drool: :drool:

Yup, looks like the good one! :)

You folks sure do make it hard to resist hardware I don't need... ;)

Got my A version hooked up. First setting was 12.5X for 1664mhz at 1.55Vcore and it booted into windows. Wasn't stable though. Bumbed up the Vcore to 1.75 and it is stable. Still at 133FSB so I have a ways of FSB to go but I am stuck at 12.5X for the multi. Board doesn't support bois multi adjust. Temps are good with my REV 2.0 block. Steady at 32C DF load with 18C room temp. :) This block is doing pretty good for what it is. :)

Glad to hear that you are fairing well with your chip and block Jaydee.

AS for myself, I am extatic that I was right when I suspected that the price drop that Newegg made was them getting rid of a different type of chip than the JIUHBs and when the price went right back up, they had the good ones back. (OR it chould have been pure luck on my part :D )

Wellllll.... I have yet to even put the JIUHB into my 8DRA+ yet. Mainly because I just found a great deal on a 5.1 Home Theater sound system and have been playing with that all night. Decided that I wanted a working machine tonight and I will deal with the frustrations (AND JOYS!!) of overclocking a new chip in a few days. I HAVE it now; its NOT going anywhere!!!! :evilaugh:

Now at 1807mhz 12.5Xmulti 145FSB 1.75Vcore and stable with DF load. :) I am not disapointed at all now. Well worth the 46.99. My little REV 2.0 block is doing great with it. Stays under 35C load. :)

just got my chip from newegg a couple of days ago...

It does 2.1Ghz on the worst aircooling imaginable (thermalright CB6-L)

http://www.voidyourwarranty.net/imag...sandra2112.jpg

not as fast as everyone elses, but sure makes me happy!

@warpath
congrats on the worst aircooling/best overclock. very nice

@jtroutma
congrats on winning the 'chip lottery'. thats the newest chip date ive seen so far. (before that i had seen a 0301 somewhere)

@jaydee
glad you are having fun with your A. 1.8ghz is not something to be disappointed at. i was able to unload my A onto my cousin. he was in dire need to upgrade his little bro's 400 celeron for something more modern. i plan on ordering a B version from vibe ASAP.

Just got my 1700+ JIUHB in from vibecomputers.

http://www.procooling.com/~phaestus/cpuid.png

My 8k3a and ram's max. I will modify the motherboard tonight for larger multipliers :)

I punched a JIUCB 1700+ to over 2250 on mediocre aircooling today at 1.8V ... it definitely can be done, even with the worse steppings. I ended up leaving it at 2.0Ghz for my customer, though, for longevity purposes ... still, not a bad chip at all.

nice ph!

Is that crucial or kingston?

Is that the SLK800?

what voltage is that at?

Did you get newer week core or older week? mine is 0251, sorta old for newegg... was wondering if you got newer part from the northern US wastelands (locals call it ca-na-da)

That is with 2 256mb sticks of Kingmax PC2700. It is right at its limit at at fsb. I got it into Windows at 185fsb, but I am getting lots of errors in programs like IE and Outlook express. This is the computer my wife uses, so I had to back it down to a fully stable speed (175fsb). If I get the energy I'll modify the 8K3A for higher multiplier adjust and see what happens. It runs CPUBurn no problem up to 185fsb, so I am pretty sure the limitation is the RAM or the PCI and not the chip itself. I wish I had some beefy ram and an NForce2 that locked PCI....

http://www.procooling.com/~phaestus/2400.jpg

2500 seems a no go :( Temps are in mid 50C though so could just be heat...

Update:

I finally got a chance to install that JIUHB and currently have it running 2250@180FSB, 1.85V. Temps were at 37C running Folding. I am pegged on the multiplier until I unlock the higher multiplyers and my board refuses to post over 180FSB. I figure that a NB Vmod is in order and some newer RAM before I can get any higher.

Must say though, I am very happy with the performance. Gained 30FPS@1600x1200x32 in UT2K3.

Unfortunately, after my latest purchase of a Yamaha 450W 5.1 Home Theater Sound System for my system, I am broke. :( Now I have to wait until I get a new job and play off some more credit cards before I can get the new RAM and shoot for 200+FSB.
