P4P800-VM hoorible vdroop or vcore throttling ?

[Lestat]

Ok so went and got the p4p800-vm for my Q-Xpack case and i hate it.
the lack of any overclocking options in the bios really blows but here is one of the worst things.
someone who may know tell me if this is vdroop or vcore throttling.

i can boot and run with my Celeron D 310 2.1ghz @ 3.15ghz(using clockgen) @ 1,4v(that's what the bios sets it to and you can't adjust it, gee thanks ASUS, and let me add thanks for not having any FSB options in the bios also. nor a working vcore oh and vdimm to 2.65v... wow thanks.)

but whenever under load, the cpu kicks the voltages down to 1.3 and 1.33v

what the heck is that about. seconds after starting prime or whatever else, you can watch the vcore drop to 1.3v then 1.33 then later it will hit 1.3 again then go back to 1.33 but it will never go back to 1.4 until i stop whatever program i am running.

what is this, why does it do it and how can i stop it ?

thanks in advance fellas

A friend of mine has the same board. I set it up a few years ago. Its OC ability is less than desired. Im not sure about the droop. Lestat, does this board allow the use of Pentium D's?

[Lestat]

yes as i say up above im using the Celie D 310 2.1ghz

i mean shoot im getting a 1ghz overclock right now on stock voltages infact i am prime stable at 3.15ghz @ 1.33v and thats the droop i boot up at 1.4v then run prime and it kicks the voltages down to 1.33v and im prime stable for over 12hours i got tired of waiting for it to fail so i stopped it lol.
I just cant go any higher cuz the chip just need more volts than 1.33v since its sucking the voltages down

overall a vdimm mod and vcore/vdroop mod are needed. all of the P4P800 and P4C800 baords are modable i just cant find any info on modding this one nor can i find someone to do it for me.

as far as i can tell everything on this board is the same as the P4P800 ATX version, but i cant be for sure as i dont have a 100% spec verification method aside from looking at the mods of the P4P800 ATX vs my board. which isnt really all that reliable but so far so good.

i also don't feel confortable doing the mod not on that small of a solder point.

anyone wanna volunteer ?

Try downloading Throttlewatch, and look at the results.

Most m-ATX board are not designed for OC.
If you want to OC/"do mods" m-ATX board probably should not even be considered.
Have the same board (P4P800-VM) as "base" in one of my Dothan-systems and I think it's perfectly OK for "normal" use/OC.
As most Celeron M do not respond to increased VCore they are ecpecially "good" for this board (I'm using a 360M at 170x14.. 70% OC on stock VCore cannot be considered as bad). :)

[Lestat]

well its not about the mobiles as i dont have one it's the Celeron D 2.1ghz

its about why does the vcore drop nearly a full .10 v and how to stop it.

is it throttling ? is it drooping ?


and who the hell can do the vcore and vdimm mod for me lol

[Lestat]

well this p.o.s. board is now dead

yeah happy :banana::banana::banana::banana:in new years to me
