any new news on this? is it out yet?No, not yet. Last thing I heard was that it should be out within a week or so. Hopefully that’s not too fare away from the truth :toast:

[spruce]

sweet, my Ic7-g needs one badly :D

[Revv23]

yes that is why i want one, i dont mind modding but this tool would be absolutly indespensable.

[iddqd]

I'm wondering if you could make it low-profile... I have put giant heatsinks on my memory, and the center slot is obviously useless. Since the maximizer only uses a few pins from the DDR PCB, maybe you could make it much lower too? or just solder the wires from the floppy-bay unit directly into the DIMM slot?

[situman]

picky picky arent we?

[althes]

Just cant wait to get one

[atreides]

There're no news from hipro5 :( .
Do u have any confirmation of the hipro5's start of production on DDR maximizer? I PM'ed him, but still no answer, maybe the inbox is full ;)

[Revv23]

like i said in the other maximizer thread, he hasnt been on since the 25th. I hope our friend is okay.

[situman]

we should start a thread "Hipro5 where are u?"

[Owen1978]

don't want tot break off the idea of this maximizer...but what usefull could this be? :)
A dfi delivers 4.0V....isn't that enough to feed youre ram?or is something different?

Hopefully rev2 will have upto 8 volts!!!! :p:

[Magnj]

lol. I htink the fact thats it much more accurate and stable?

[Entity_Razer]

yes and filters a LOT of noise out of the volt signal and provides a nice clean and stable voltage.

So it won't only help OC by giving MORE volt but also by giving CLEANER volts

What's the advantage of using the DDR Maximizer in the DFI NF4 boards - apart from 4.2V with the DDR Maximizer as opposed to the 4.0V on the DFI?

Look.......MOST of the times when someone wants to boot into Windows with OVER 3.7Vdimm into DFI bios which ACTUALLY IS 3.82Vdimm, is difficult.......Blue screens, even corrupted files......Now with the DDR Maximizer you can boot into windows at 3.8Vdimm and then play with it as much as you want "onthefly"...... ;)

SECOND reason is that the mobo works MUCH more stable and colder coz it doesn't need to feed the Rams with power so as to get really hot........ ;)

......and THIRD, almost everyone who has bought a Zippy 700W PSU and try the Mobo's jumper to 4Volts, it doesn't work....Now comes the Maxi to solve this.......ALSO in Mobos that takes the power for its Ram Mos-Fets from the 5Volts line, the Maxi work just fine with it

[Gray Mole]

I've seen some of the prelim ideas on it and just one question...

can it be made/have an extension made so that it doesn't interfere with the other slots? Maybe an optional extension ribbon as an add-on?

Gray

What exactly do you mean about that?.......To have cables that from the one side will be "free" of connector?.......

[Gray Mole]

I've seen someone who modded up a ribbon lead with a female connector that allows you to plug the ribbon lead into the ram slot used for the booster, and mount the booster away from the ram slot itself...

Makes it so you can use larger ramsinks and easier to adjust AND if there are issues with certain slots(like this mobo) the you can still get your booster in and use slots that you normally wouldn't...

I don't know how low profile this booster is going to be, and if it's wafer-thin, then it wouldn't be necessary, but even for the remote mounting and ease of use, I'd pay more for an extension lead...

Gray

[hipro5]

Sorry but I still don't understand your point....... :confused:

The DDR Maximizer is a 3.5" unit and you put it into a 3.5" bay.......Some cables with connectors are pluged in the back of the Maximizer and on their other end are also pluged via a connector to the DDR PCB that plugs into a DDR slot........This DDR PCB is TOO thin......

Hey Hirpo, is it a "rule" that anything that work or doesn't work on the OCZ booster won't work on the maximizer?

because apparently me A78N8X-X doesn't work with the OCZ product because of the overvoltage however OCZ says 2.8 is teh limit but I'm pushing my RAM 2.9 in the Uberbios at the moment.

so will it work or not or could I "fix" the vcore monitoring/ protection with a bios flahs/mod?

Mobos with Vdimm overvoltage protection is possible to work with the DDR Maximizer IF they ONLY "read" this Vdimm during post and "cut" the mobo from booting......IF afterwords just don't "pay attention" to the Vdimm, then they will work.....User can boot - lets say with the 2.8Vdimm - and then he can play within Windows......SECOND : DDR Maximizer is providing the Vdimm in a different way than the OCZ's booster so yes it's possible to work with mobos that are incopatible with the booster......Time and tests will show as.... ;)

Can someone please test the AN8? Good board, but Vdimm voltages are crappy and I think it has overvoltage protecti0n on it too :(

So does this mean if we use the 5V line, and maximizer, Mosfets wont get hot?

lol my kingston BH5 became famous ! (first pic) :p:

[esdee]

So does this mean if we use the 5V line, and maximizer, Mosfets wont get hot?

no reason to use the 5V on the DFI, leave it to the 3.3V jumper setting.(less things to worry while flashing BIOSes too). Maximizer works just fine with the 3.3V
That's how we used it to test hipro5s BH6 with 3.9++ Vdimm

well you wouldnt need to bypass the ovp as you could just boot at 3.5 and then use the maximizer to raise your voltage in windows...

[jiff]

Yes I could do that, but hell that's messy if you forget, you have to wait half hour with cmos battery out before it will reboot.
In my case it would be 3.3volts cos the OVP seems to change

[Ubermann]

The ovp is at 3.85 volt on my NF3.
And there is no need to clear cmos or whatever if you trigger it.
Just lower volt and reboot.

I know this is going to make me look like a right retard, but ...

.. If you're mobo is providing a lower voltage than the Maxi .. Won't it damage the mobo's RAM Vregs as you are trying to push a higher voltage back through the mobo's regulators ?

Sorry I feel like a retard now, but yea if somebody could please explain how this doesn't damage the mobo. Cheers.

Sorry I feel like a retard now, but yea if somebody could please explain how this doesn't damage the mobo. Cheers.

It has nothing to do with the mobo's Ram Vregs......It has it's own Vreg and feeds the rams by itshelf directly......On some mobos there are some designs that have an output mos-fet to ground......Those are the "incompatible" mobos........Maxi has a Very powerfull output mos-fet(130Watts) and pushes hard the mobos mos-fet(the one to ground - 40Watts) and it can burn it down......In this case, mobo STILL WORKS but ONLY through the Maximizer feeding the rams.......If you remove the maximizer from the mobo, it wont start(no vdimm).......If you plug the Maxi back in, mobo works like a charm again......These are the "incompatible" ones.......;)

If the mobo is "compatible" you pick the lowest vdimm through bios(or whatever you wish) and the Maxi feeds the rams without hurting the mobos vregs coz mos-fet and transistors are like diodes......Alows no backwords voltage ;)

[yngndrw]

But what about the compatable mobos ? Does it not cause damage as long as you don't provide a voltage which is over the max reverse bias breakdown voltage of the mosfets ?

I don't think I'm wording this right ..

If your mobo is set to 1.8V and the Maxi is set to 3.0V, you have 1.2V going across the mobo's vdimm regulation circuit backwards. Now if there was just MOSFETS acting like a buffer between whatever sets the mobo's vdimm (The BIOS) and the Maxi's vdimm then the -1.2V would not be larger than the MOSFET's reverse bias breakdown voltage, however there are other components components buffering the two, so I'm asking why does the Maxi not damage the BIOS's circuitery.

Sorry if that doesn't make sense.

Don't be confused......:D
The only components involved backwords are the output vdimm mos-fet and the feedback resistor for the vdimm IC....nothing else.....
Some mobos have built in overvoltage vdimm protection, so from a vdimm and up, the mobo shuts down.....:)

Reversed bias breakdown voltage is when a mos-fet don't have VGate........In a "working" mos-fet, we have a VGate over 3.5-4Volts......if you can understand what I mean.....:)

Raise AGP frequency looks like to solve problems with my northbridge.... but 1,7V on NB doesn´t help. Or i am wrong?

Anybody here with P4C800 Board and BH5 with 250+ FSB?
can this guy make some pictures from all BIOS settings, depend on RAM and CPU settings...

Should I open a new Thread? This problem is far away from maximizer topic.

yeah id say open a new thread.
well in every stepping of bh5 there are some bad chips... its not like every chip from a certain week clock well, so maybe your unlucky... try one stick and then the other stick and check if one is a lot better than the other

231mhz with 3.2 is more than a bad chip.... if it hade been a bad chip it would hade been more like 245-250mhz 3.2v. 231mhz 3.2v and more vdimm dont help then its the board or something else if its old bh5 like this time.

Trust me on this one ;)

Test ONE memory module at a time.....Maybe one of them is bad....IF not, find the "better one" of those two and mark it as "1" and always place it first in the slots..... :)

@ DonBanana: DDR3 PCBs will be out at early January....

I AM GOING CRAZY !!!

New test.... 235 MHz... one 512 MB stick in slot 1:
3,3V errors in Memtest vers3.3 on beginning of test 6.
3,25V no error for the whole loop.

no changes beetween this two tests except the VDimm.

My BH5 don´t like high voltage :rofl: :rofl:

I will test some other sticks.... maybe i can buy some for a good price.

hmmm if you say so ill trust ya :D
but i think i remember that i had some bh5 that didnt do more than 235 222 with 3.2 volts... on an dfi nf2 board... man that was so long ago ^^

Had anybody test the maximizer on a Asus P5KC??
Should I lift up one leg of the coil?

[s0lid]

ddr3 edition plz :D?

[Oj101]

I'd love one that could give me 5v on DDR400. My old BH-5s scale really well with voltage, even 3.95v to 4v gave me an increase.

Hello,

i have a huge problem with my maximizer.

Board is a Asus Commando with two D9GMH 1024 sticks.

In cases, where the maximizer voltage is lower then the board vdimm voltage.... all is fine.... display shows the right voltage of the board.

but when i start raise the vdimm with the small switches (over the vdimm of the board) my maximizer will become very very hot.... i think the hot spot is in the left corner in the back.

I can not check, if the voltages of the maximizer are shown correct in the BIOS hardware monitor, because the maximizer is untouchable hot... so i better shut down the system. Will not destroy the device.

So where is the mistake?
Is the device broken or are there just mistakes in handling?
I think i should not lift up one leg of the VDimm coil.

I hope you understand my problem.... and can help me....

Are there other options to get a technical support for this device?
