[WhiteFireDragon]

wow looks extremely easy. so all you have to do is don't let those two pins make contact with the mobo pins?

[stasio]

According to source,yes.

shouldn't that theoretically work will all 775 based cpus?

[hersounds]

which would be the real benefits? ... one is the core that would use 400 FSB with default voltage ... but any E8400/500/600 can do 400 FSB without touch voltages even going more beyond the 400 FSB .... the gain would then be in motherboards that not to allow "play" with overclocking FSB or not?

Yep. I know a guy with 20 Dell Vostros folding on Q6600's and he pin modded them all to run at 3.0Ghz so a little boost for a non OCing board :up:

[Kylzer]

Very useful anyone tried it out yet ?

i would but i don't have any 775 platforms left :(

[ViViD]

Can I Do It For My Quad? 400*8.5=3400 MHZ?
It's Safely For CPU?

[hallryu]

Interesting find.:clap:

[dejanbinladen]

ok nice find but i dont see the point but very nice ... just two questions, what tape do you use for pins, and wouldnt pins on the board cut threw the tape when you put your cooler and thighten them, i wonder could you bend the pins ???

I was wondering the same. Electrical tape would probably be the best, thin but with sufficient give!

[Riska]

It can help with mem dividers om some mobos they are usually different whit 266-333-400mhz fsb boot

[topdog5050]

yeah looks great to me buddy.

[panos_under]

very interesting mod. is there any case to do it on an atom 330 ?

[davidkozat]

Does it Work With Any 775 Intel Chip & On Any Platform Too??

[Dr.Paneas]

How the hell did they come up with the idea of cancelling two pins ? ? ? ? ? ?
This is insane and rocks! Great mod!

[chenxuwen]

Problem, can this mod improve the stability after 400MHz FSB? Otherwise, why are we needing it?

Have you ever overheard a conversation between two electronic engineering students? It's like listening to Swahili with a thick Welsh accent.

[Riska]

The mod is for getting better chipset multipliers and better mem diveders to boost mem performence

[Asylum1]

This mod would be for people that bought a premade computer from HP or other companies that dont allow you into the bios.

[Origin_Unknown]

hmmm my board is broken so i cannot overclock using the bios so i wonder if this will work?

so electrical tape on those pins will work?

[Luka_Aveiro]

It didn't work with my asus commando + e8400 C0 :\

Is the mod supposed to insulate both pins contact from the board only or insulate+wire them?

i used this black regular insulator tape

have i done something wrong here?

[HeUeR]

hi guys,

im wondering if this mod will work with my E6400 or it's only work with E8xxx cpu?:confused:

[LagunaX]

I have an asus p5kpl-vm matx board - will my board do 1600 fsb or will the mod work? Thanks guys.

[slim142]

Hmmmmmmmm

So all you need is electrical tape and scissors right? are there any risks of a nuclear explosion?

BIOSTAR G31-M7G DVI LGA 775 Intel G31 Micro ATX Intel Motherboard
FSB 1600/1333MHz

Got one for $45 shipped on ebay.

Gonna try with an e8600 I have that I know will do 4.0ghz with less than stock volts.

For a build for a LAN build for a noob friend (advantage: will not revert to default stock settings in event of a windows crash/shutdown that a bios setting profile might).

[overclocking101]

worked on my MSI P35 neo 2FR and E7200 pretty nice, brought it from 9.5X266 stock to 9.5X333 stock voltages not to shabby if you ask me

[d50man]

intel white papers give you hints also you can do the bsel voltmod soon

[milladog420]

wow I will give this a try very soon looks cool.

[phelan1777]

Any ideas if this would work on a X3370? Just curious :P

[jar032]

is this safe?

[phelan1777]

is this safe?

lol yeah your new to XS hehe.:rofl::D

[arroyo]

@jar032
People here are totally crazy. They push their stuff to the point where you can smell burning silicon ... and then they start overclocking.

Respect for XS Community!

[luf1c3r]

Someone tested it on a Q9550?

[arroyo]

Yep I've tested it on Q9550. It works on all 775 cpu. Id depends only if your motherboard supports it. For example Foxconn P35A-S doesn't like BSEL mods. Abit IP35 likes BSEL.

[luf1c3r]

Thanks for the info ;) Too bad my motherboard is a EP45T-UD3P :( theoretically this is not.

[HDCHOPPER]

Another great pin mod thanks !


and right arroyo the Foxconn P35A doesn't like anything ;)

[stevedawg]

should have a q9400 at my front door in a few hours. cant wait to try this

[HeXploiT]

In doing this is there any advantage/difference over merely overclocking the fsb in bios?

[BababooeyHTJ]

Has anyone tried any stress testing while doing this? Would this pass linpack?

Also, don't most boards adjust the vcc when overclocking the fsb? In which case they wouldn't really be "stock" or "default" voltages.

[HeXploiT]

I just tried this on an e6750 and it changed the fsb from 1333(2.66ghz) to 1066(2.13ghz).

[RoadconeTuning]

I just tried this on an e6750 and it changed the fsb from 1333(2.66ghz) to 1066(2.13ghz).

owned, i might try this on my Q6600 or my sis's E5300
