Ok, the most stable vcore I can remember was my old 8rda back in the day... Well I picked another one up a couple weeks ago for $10 including shipping, because 3 of the caps were bulging and/or leaking. $5 more on a variety pack of Electrolytic caps at Radio Shack (Containing 4 2200uf 16v Nichicons) and about ten minutes with a soldering iron and this board has the most stable vcore I've ever seen. 1.60-1.62vcore with average 1.60vcore (so it's consistant 1.60v with a rare spike to 1.62v) read from MBM5 in 1sec increments. For compairison my old NF2 DFI ultra infinity fluctuated TEN TIMES as severely. That is as much as 0.2v.

Phoooie to people who say you cant do cap mods with caps at radioshack.

I have a near new Albatron PX915G4-Pro (a socket 478 with the 915 chipset oh what a POS) and the Vcore is all over the place

I am VERY seriously thinking about ripping ALL the cheap and nasty caps off and replace with bigger and better :slobber:

whadayoureckon :)

Oh and the best all time stable Vcore I have ever seen is with my IC7 = rock solid stable

using an nF7 right now, it runs +/- 0.01v between load and idle verified by DMM. MBM bounces a bit more.. +/- 0.03v.
