Official Socket 939 Club
 

I have noticed that there isnt a S939 club for current and former S939 users. So I figured I would make one.

To be a member of this club, you should have at least:

No spamming and feel free to share your knowledge/experience amongst the community!

Oh, and if there are a considerable amount of people who join this "club" someone please feel free to make a userbar sig pic.

i have a athlon 64 x2 3800+ 2.0Ghz oc/ed to 2.7Ghz on air. and i use that 24/7

My system is a bitch to OC and I've been pretty slow with OCing AMD CPUs.
My system is stable at 2.5Ghz, 2.64Ghz is fine for bench testing.
Gaming it can crash to windows.

X2 3800 @2.6G on MSI board. X2 3800 @2.1G on a Dumb Ass Gigabyte board.

Rawr...

<---- points to specs :)

(soon to change tho, bye bye 939, you have served me well for longer than I had expected, since the days when dual cores were unheard of and the x800 was hot toast that everone wanted a piece of)

please close this thread is as pointless as this club

if they want a club, why deny them it? dont be mean (sure, maybe jumping on the "club" bandwaggon, but so what? )

^^^Agreed.

AMD Athlon 64 3800+ Venice 2.4GHz stock on Asus A8V-VM SE.

AMD Athlon 4200+ X2 Stock 2.2 running at 2.5. Overall s939 has kicked its fair share of ass in games and beanchmarks alike. Viva la s939:rockout:

you know what athlon? i think you're going around trashing other clubs just cause amd overclockers club isnt as popular as it was before. please stop trashing clubs...

yeah, athlon, if you don't like a club, DON'T GO INTO IT, and don't TROLL in the club [which you seem to do]

:shadedshu

Just upgraded to 939 after my brothers AXP system needed a new board and had to give him mine as good AXP boards go for lots of money on ebay! So was actually cheaper to go 939! So far O/C my chip to 2.7 on stock volts from 2.4. So plenty more to go I think! :D

Then dont post here.

Feel free to post here if you need help with your overclocking. We'd be glad to help you out.

Thanks! :D I've been trying to find stuff out about my board and overclocking. Turns out it's pretty poor. Apparently it doesn't have PCI lock (but does have AGP lock) but been unable to confirm this. So I'm pretty much at my limit if this is true (37.5MHz). Haven't managed to find anything yet that reliably reports my PCI clock speed. Tried clockgen, everest ultimate, systool, amd overdrive, and a couple of versions of sisoft sandra to no avail. :banghead:

@ RodneyChef
Is your Ram set at 1T or 2T?

mine is athlon 3200+ winchester from 2 ghz to 2.4 stable vcore 1.45 from 1.40 i was able to make it until 2.6 but it was crashing

2T. Will only boot at 1T with only 2 of the sticks inserted for some reason.

I have a top of the line system!!:rockout: For s939:ohwell:

go go 939. still runs most games great..bioshock and overlord and wow perfectly. with such quality games why should I ever upgrade? ahahaha

As that is the way it is supposed to be. If you run 2 stix the controller on the CPU has no issues with 1T timings. When 4 stix are loaded on the controller it is very stressful and the way it compensates is to run them at 2T.

So in simple terms the mobo and CPU are doing exactly as they should, no worries!


And i do honestly believe that Athlons "pooping" in here is based on the fact that there is huge amount of 939 info in the AMD overclockers club, as that is what it was based on. Then of course as more people added AM2's to the lineup, of course they were added as well. In the future I wouldnt be surprized to see a rebirth of that club as the Phenoms start being worked over!

That's not top of the line...
:(

I have seen a top of the line system, and it's an Intel setup. Don't remember specs though....

4 systems.

#1 X2 4200 Oc'd to 2.8Ghz - 2Gb DDR500 Crucial Ballistix
#2 X2 4200 not Oc'd - 2Gb of DDR400 Crucial Value RAM
#3 64 3200 not Oc'd - 1Gb of DDR (unknown specs)
#4 64 3000 Oc'd to 2.6Ghz - 2Gb of DDR400 Aeneon @ DDR440

And I do have a 64 3500 lying around somewhere :)

Hello?! Socket 939 club?!

hey erocker...have you tries CAS3 and running a 180 divider to see if you can gain on benchies? Should get you into the 270-275MHz range on your RAM
