Well, 700/800 works well on my CECH-2004B (65nm).
The 700/1000 variant however bricked it.
I'll see how to fix it, but I need to take a break first :')

Dont do massive frequency jumps.
100MHz at most!!!

I'm myself at 700/900 currently and contemplating if i should go to 950 considering my chip seems to be slightly worse than all other 40nm chips here.
 
Update. As I expected my chip is unstable at 950 mem. Going back to 700/900 now for extensive stability testing.

i need a medal for worst 40nm RSX

Unfortunately, no :\
The green light is on, if I try to access recovery menu the screen remain black.
I tried to swap HDDs but... nothing.
It seems to be completely bricked.

Sad to hear that, you'll need to find a repair shop with a HW flasher :/

Do you flashed the 700/1000 provided by @XDeltaOne ? @Thimblewad and @Mitsu™

Just to know if it's the PUP or the rsx that crashed.

black dots everywhere and two hard crashes in games.

Now We can't even say that the 1000MHz memory is safe

700 Core is still safe for everyone.

I'm sorry to hear that. Should I take it down? Not that it happens to more people. It works for me.

This firmware has nothing to do with it.
Just, do not install it on a 65nm RSX PS3.
Of course this is sad, but at least now we're aware of that.

Thimblewad said:
Yep, I flashed the file provided from XDeltaOne, I believe his RSX gave way this time. @Mitsu™ did you flash from 800 to 1000 directly?
I'm sorry to hear about your brick :C

Yes, I was careless :\

I would rather remove the firmware. It's too much of a risk for it to happen to more people.

I don't think it's necessary, i'll update the table and add some warnings.

I want to flash 700/1000 on my another system to see if it can handle

If you decide to take it down, wait a little, so i can download all the files.

I have all of them. I could upload some to the one drive.
My PS3 definitely does 700/900 no problem.

I would upload some footage if my internet didn't suck as much.
But the crashes happened (at 950 mem) in Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare and in Call of Duty: Black Ops in their respective Zombie modes.
Call of Duty games seem to scale extremely well with memory bandwidth. Got 12fps more in Call of Duty Classic just going from 800 to 900 mem
