About LinkBacksSo I've used OCInside's lovely PID tool to check the CPU I have it what I ordered... and it is. Athlon 64 3200+ 2.0ghz Winchester.
But, are there any sites that can give me any more info, based on what is printed on the chip?
Cheers guys.

No. Nobody's ever proven a definite link between stepping and OCing success. The only way to find out how good it is is to slap it in a machine and OC the hell out of it I'm afraid.

So show me an Athlon XP1700 or 1800 T'Bred JIUHB stepping chip that wont do over 2 gig
Being serious though with the A64s it really is crap shoot as to whether you get a good clocker or not. Stepping & production date appear to have little to do with how well it'll clock.
With AMD64s a lot is down to the memory controller(s) in the individual chip.
But it will *certainly* do 10*240 to 10*250 on air, though. With a working AGP/PCI lock and some good memory, that is. Haven't seen one WinChester or Newcastle that didn't do that. Clawhammers, however, have worse memory controllers...
- DFI LanParty UT 250Gb, Oscar Wu's 10/15 bios
- AMD64 "NewCastle" 3000+ @ 2550Mhz (10x255) @ 1.595 vcore
- Sapphire 9800Pro->*Flash*->9800XT @ 459/380
- 2x512MB Crucial Ballistix PC4000, 1:1 @ 2.7v, 2.5-3-3-10
- 2x Seagate 7200.7 SATA 80GB, RAID 0, Ports 3/4
- Coolermaster ATC-210-VX
- Antec TrueBlue 480W
- Koolance Exos-Al, Zalman ZM-WB2 CPU block, Koolance GPU-180-L06 for GPU and chipset
- Toshiba DVD-Rom, Lite-On SOHW-1653S DVD-writer

Show me any Tbred-B that won't do 2 gig. I know of one example in my long forum browsing career. I'm sure there are more, but they're not common.So show me an Athlon XP1700 or 1800 T'Bred JIUHB stepping chip that wont do over 2 gig
Mines already up and running
got the FSB @ 220 already so my 3500+ is running @ 2.4 Ghz nice and stable - The most important thing to release is that rave is right - steppings and revisions mean naff all as their are other "influencing" factors such as memory type, PSU type and stability and more.
Kez - I'll email you later the guide on how to get the firewall working with windows XP SP2 as the software will not load without a few updated dll files.
Another thing to note as well is that NCQ can be a bit flakey at the moment but reports are coming in that the latest beta bios (007) fixes this so I will test tonight after the football match
