.....hey, i should actually see what i can do with my Barton 2500+

WyreTheWolf · Sep 7, 2003, 10:53 AM

The Barton 2500+ is quite simply a 3200+ that has had its wings clipped.

I run mine all day long @ 2.3GHz ... and I never hear it complain.

Is it the same as this one here? ---> AMD XP2500+ Barton 'AQXEA'

True that the 2500 is very overclockable. But arent they all. Isent the 2500 just the most overclocked cpu due to being the most popular seller due to price range? Would the 2800 not be just as over clockable? I am not speaking for mine because I'm sure there are much more experienced people here that could take it further then myself. Or does the 2500 accually overclock better than the rest of the series?

Never the less it's all about the 64 bit which I'm deffinatley getting the second it gets to Vancouver. Benches I have seen are throwing down scores a P4 could not hit.

Actually I have no idea what core stepping mine is... that wasnt the way that I chose mine... I took a tray of processors and tested all of them to see which one hit the highest speed with stock voltage... that was the one that I bought.

But to answer the question: All cores, on all bartons are physically the same ... just some yields clock better than others.

You have access to a whole tray!?!?! You have time to test that many!?!?! (Don't they put like 25-50 procs on one tray?)

uhh, how the hell did you do that? Must be nice- man, do you own a PC shop or somthing? Do you have the ability to do that again? If so, can I buy your used CPU's when you are done with them!?!?

seeing as i'm running a Abit AT7-Max2 mobo, i doublt i'll be able to hit 200FBS... although possible.... KT400 chipset, and only able to recognize FSB2x166mhz cpus... not 2x200

WyreTheWolf · Sep 8, 2003, 04:05 AM

A tray of processors is 6x8 meaning that there are 24 of them... using a motherboard mounted on a desktop, I just simply see which processor post the highest... doesnt take long....

out of the the 24 all of them hit 2.2GHz on default voltages... but only a few would hit 2.3GHz at default voltages.

This one will post @ 2.4GHz with the voltage set to 1.8volts

I'm just wondering, is the romour that the ones in the center of the tray are better true? I hear lots of people talk about it.
