ok, i've been trying to put together a database of winchesters for everyone (and so i can test a theory of mine)
however, digging through threads of winchesters that do not have all the data i need is getting frustrating, so i want everyone with a winchester to report the following:
if you don't have the week at the very least, DO NOT bother posting your oc. it will not go up, because the whole purpose of this is to see how various weeks and steppings overclock
anything else, general comments/excuses that your chip doesn't oc as high as you want..
UNEEDED!
i just found out something interesting about the code after the week. thank OCdetective from XS for this
and it explains why all the codes are xPxW
however, digging through threads of winchesters that do not have all the data i need is getting frustrating, so i want everyone with a winchester to report the following:
- model
- 2nd line of the OPN (if you don't know the whole thing, whatever you do is good enough, but the entire line would be most helpful)
- max STABLE overclock
- voltage at that overclock
- cooling type (stock, air, water or phase.. i don't need to know the actual cooling, just the kind)

so you guys with the rare MPM, that means that you have a chip that could be from a random time that is or is not from your week.First Digit is either R through to X for Monday to Sunday or A through to G for same. M means mixed assembly lot.
P merely means Penang
3rd digit is the sequential batch of cores used in assembly - so if they are using the first batch for that day its an A second batch is B and so forth. M means the cores used in the assembly came from different batches.
The existence of a W for the 4th letter means mixing of wafer lots in the core fabrication was prohibited. Its absence means the wafer lots could be mixed when making a batch of cores.
0450 etc is self explanatory and is the week of assembly.
