Dropmod is done to stabilize the VCore on certain ASUS boards.
As most will know, the VCore on their P4 boards fluctuates a lot under idle and load. The mod just helps gettings more stable voltages.

i have a winny system on a a8v delux... it has been nothing but a mind sore...

yes it is alot faster at gaming than the P4 "i run a 2.6 and a 2.8c both with the ihs removed @ 2.5 and 3.9ghz" but for every day usage i like my p4 rigs better... they multy task so so so much beter than the winny...


if you game go for it get a winchester

if you dont do alot of gaiming enjoy your P4 thier fast ass hell too...

i feel the all out thruput on the amd mobo/cpu setup is definatly faster/boot times are faster and harddive intensive tasks are faster... but try to do more than 1 thing at a time and your waiting for one task to finish before the next begins...
ive also spent about 2 weeks trying different bios settings after finding out that the stock setting will simply not run with my memory/mobo then after finding stability i began to overclock...

i run the asus a8v it seems that the MSI Neo delux is the best board to get... ill be buying one soon n see if theres a diff...
