CCBWE 0547TPMW .. dunno good or not

Initial testing Opty146
CAB2E 0546FPMW

where did u bought the opty n how much..jaz the proc only or with the mobo as well?

i bought CAB2E also last week in LYP... under help of Irenic   .... onli proc, but hv to pay more..

At LYP oso got Opty but shops wont sell them proc only....need bundled...i went to 3 shops offering as much as 100 per proc...but no...no sell... ....hmmmm...seems that all the thousands of RM i spent in the certain shop doesnt worth anything....hmmmmmm

what do u mean by 100 a proc ? 

hey guys, wanted to ask ....
thinking of picking up a delta PSU to power up my rig...
do u think my current[enermax FMA 535W] is limiting my overclock?
or could it be posssibly be causing my Vcore to require 1.62V to run @ 2.6GHz?

hmm now dunno they got stock or not.. if yes maybe i can help u.. i already managed to buy 3 opty ( 2x 146 n 1x 165) and all of them are proc alone 

what do u mean by 100 a proc ? 

maybe he meant he offered rm100 more than normal price for the proc

oh chehh

i tot why suddenly they soooooo generous to sell the proc at 100

wanna ask...any1 use opty 165 on nForce 3 Ultra platform ar?? hehe...wanna know if there is any issues with it...
