View Full Version : Need a vmod for a Q-Tec 550w PSU! 12v, 5v and 3v!
Hey,
I have this PSU and I love it but I want to bump up the rails on it, does anyone have a link to the mods to do this?
Or the 400w version if it's similar?

I'm going to move this over to the Vmods area. You'll stand a much better chance of getting the answers you're seeking from the guys that hang in there. You'll still have the redirect link here for the extra exposure:cool:

There not very good PSU's so it might blow up if you mod it.
Have you checked your voltages with a multimeter?
I don't recommend it but here you go......

Cheers Tweaked!
And cheers PMM!
I have checked with a MM and the 12v is 11.7v full load but 5v and 3.3v are above spec!

It's more likely your board causing the low 12V rail, rather than the PSU. You don't have the Abit NF7 board, do you?
If you really have the NF7 then it's definately a board prob and not a PSU prob. I also have the Q-Tec 550W PSU and I'm very happy with it. It has very stable voltage rails. It always had a very stable 12V rail (nearly always around 12,30V), but now with my Abit NF7 Rev.2.0 it's also at about 11,70V. But as the CPU doens't really use the 12V rail, I don't mind it being a bit under spec and so should you, I think.
