Do i have to mod the booster or the mobo to be able to use 2x512 sticks and the booster? I've heard something like that... it's true? How do i have to do it? What do i have to do?

Thank you!

yes, but i need a modded psu or a pwu with adjustable rails, and i don't have them... :(

Anyways, a PStream PSU will be my next new product :P (with some quality memory :))

Let's see:

I've got a generic 400wPSU that i'm going to trash it :P I need a good psu, and i decided to buy the PStream. But i'll buy it next month... Now, i tried to use the Booster on dimm1 and 2 bh-5 modules in dimm2 and dimm3, and the pc do not post.

If i use 1 module in dimm1 and booster on dimm3 it runs great, if i use 1 module in dimm2 or dimm 3 and booster is on dimm1, it runs great. But if i use 2 modules, it doesn't boot...

Anyways, i decided to go thru PStream way because is a great PSU and i would not need a Booster :D

Thank you all!

i can't because heatsinks on booster mosfets don't let me use the dimm2. I need to mod it, but dunno how... Sluggard, how did you do it?

Thank you!

Joer, no sabia que no iria con dos módulos y el booster, a ver si dicen algo.

Aunque dudo que haya algun mod.

oh right i thought u meant mod the board
yes u can remove the pot and solder it on the back and either do same for mosfets or remove the heatsinks and use a large psu heatsink which has a thin part, use that to interface and then the cooling area will be above ram, if ya get me
