Need some help figuring out what my AMD chip is....

[cristoff]

Okay first of all I bought the chip online on ebay.... He says its a Thoroughbred 1800+ which I am not doubting at all about...

Some other things about it... it has a light brownish greenish pcb

On the OPN
AXDA1800DUT3C
SIXIB 0345MPM (meaning built in 2003 week 45, or in october)

So definantly a B revision Thoroughbred but whats up with the SIXI?

AMD top right corner logo small, not big like most AMD chips

27648 bottom left

Assembled in Malaysia (when on the PCB it denotes at least what I could find Barton chips)

Pink covering Chip

5 tiny rsistors on top and bottom and one on right side none on left except for 3 small
dots in triangle formation

For some reason I think it might be a barton downgraded or something or it could just be a thoroughbred from a different revision... i dunno anyone have any insite?

anyways what do you guys think i can handle with overclocking for this?
total airflow in case will be about 150 cfms... just about on the hsf and on the memory

well there isnt an exact formula that we can deduce what speeds you can get from the specs that u listed. the only way u can find out how far it will go is to just do it. its all experimentation. up it a little at a time until u find what it can handle.

well i was figuring someone else might have the chip I do... but I guess everyone isnt as cheap as me

you can check the www.overclockers.com database containing core codes.. Just look through them and it will give you a 'rought' idea of waht your batch/stepping code is capable of
