Hello,

Well, I just tried it and fried the mobo @ 2.5v
I shut down and checked the burn spot. I tried to fire back up without booster and it is dead. I reinstalled the booster and the mobo fired back up again.
I am now running 3.0v to my DDR with booster installed. My motherboard will not fire up without booster.
I also did the core mod. Time for some sub zero
New bios seems better for OC
ADDED: Up to 3.3v now and will try more after next run

I know it´s a very old Thread, but is there any way to fix a DFI-855GME damaged by a ocz booster?
Maybe to change a part or solder burned traces?!
