****1xx Series Opteron Socket 939 CPUs*****

***Opteron 1xx Socket939 series work with normal motherboards
***They have 1MB cache per core
***Supposed to be reasonably priced
***These will outperform Venice and Manchester CPUs due to cache size (Venice and Manchester will need up to 200MHz to compete with these on performance)
***Dual Core start from 1.8GHz with bigger cache
***Initial OC looks good....check XS website

SINGLE CORE CPUs:
Opteron 144 (1.8GHz 1MB Cache) LINK
Opteron 146 (2.0GHz 1MB Cache)
Opteron 148 (2.2GHz 1MB Cache)
Opteron 150 (2.4GHz 1MB Cache)
Opteron 152 (2.6GHz 1MB Cache)

DUAL CORE CPUs:
Opteron 165(2x1.8GHz 2x1MB cache) LINK
Opteron 170(2x2.0GHz 2x1MB cache)
Opteron 175(2x2.2GHz 2x1MB cache)

HERE ARE THE MODELS NUMBERS OFF AMD's SITE


Here is a bit on them over at XS: http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...ad.php?t=73384


POSSIBLE SUPPLY PROBLEM IF WE DO NOT ACT ON IT: These will be seen as SERVER CPUs buy distros and may not be brought in big numbers due to the size of the market not being very big in single CPU servers.......THESE WORK IN NORMAL MOTHERBOARDs, THEY WILL BE PRETTY CHEAP and THEY WILL OUTPERFORM A64 due to cache size unless same (i.e. San Diego), THEY ARE LOWER END CPUS!!!!!!......So everyone should harass their local PC shops to get stock of these.....the word will filter through the sale channel to distros eventually


The first one OCd at XS did OK at 2.8GHz....that would compete with a Venice clocked at 2.9-3Ghz

oo00oo00oo nice indeed.. thanx for the info.

I'll be asking a few ppl for these right now

Edit: Keeps us posted if you find a someone dinos.. Maybe mittoni can get there hands on em

dinos22

no worries

i found a nice chart with pricing per 1000 which should give you a rough idea what the differences should be retail....hence you know what 3800+ X2 is retail...the Opteron 165 one will be probably $50-80 more.......4400+ and Opteron 175 should be the same in price roughly

ArcTan

bug altech to get some

dinos22

already did ...sent it to 2xreps there so far..... I'm excited

eva2000

nice shame multiplier on cpu is too low heh... me gotten use to at least 12x or 13x

break

There is a simple solution to this problem....

...TCCD on BP

eva2000

yeah but 12x 280-290mhz TCCD is better than 11x 280-290mhz
