Thank you
I am still waiting mod this board with version HIPRO 5 !!
Everyone PM hipro :D :toast:
hehehe i did that a while ago.Quote:

Hicookie, what resistor value should be used?
NO SHI(f)T...........NOT AGAIN for God's shake!.......DON'T UPLOAD something that you HAVEN'T EVEN tested......You have burned some people's AOpen mobos like this in the past PLUS mine that I've spent $450 and now it is sitting here burned......SO PLEASE NOT AGAIN......:( :slapass: :slapass:Quote:

OK...........Here you go......
Locate this IC......

......AND this spot.....one side of the capacitor......
http://www.thelab.gr/images/Hipro5/A..._mod_2_jpg.jpg
Solder on this side of the capacitor to GROUND an 100KOhms 25 turns trimmer and trimm it to it's MAX resistance (100KOhms)....:)

woot woot!
any more mods that you've published hipro?
Thanks hipro, I will try this shortly :toast:
lol, sorry , masterQuote:

btw,i think everyone expect ur ultimated mods,things like u did last time on ic7max3, and ct479.lol
Thanks Master !! How about Vmch and Vdim mod ?? :toast: :toast: :toast:
Give him time, he needs to get some WR's first!! :p:
vdimm and vmch / chipset mods for AW9:
vdimm:

vmch: (to the right of the upper PCI-E 16x port)
http://www.nordiccrew.com/crotale/vmod/aw9_vmch.jpg
Both mods will give approx. +0.1V when soldered in.
I have tried them both myself
Nice pics, thanks for the mods crotale :)
I love XS !! thanks Crotale :toast: :toast: :toast: :toast: :toast: :toast:
I can verify that the vcore mod is working.
Here is also a read out for the vmch, along with a vmch booster mod. (either ends of the thick wire)
The booster mod is engineered by Hipro, all credit goes to him!

Wohoo! Thanks for the great MODs! How much does the MCH Booster mod increase the voltage? Is the booster Mod just the thick wire and no other modification?
Seems very simple to do for me!
Offtopic: Does the mainboard undervolt the mch? Now I'm at 425 MHz FSB with 1,9V MCH. 430 MHz --> blackscreen --> increased voltage to 2V --> still blackscreen. Does the MCH mod helps here or should I wait for another BIOS?
I assume the smaller wire is going to something you have setup so you can read the vmch voltage w/o having to flip over the board. Am I correct?Quote:

The booster mod removes that voltage drop. With the stock heatsink + AS5 + screws to get more pressure + good fan, it responded up to 1.90v real = ~470FSBQuote:

True, I can verify that oneQuote:

i'm unfamiliar with the vfsb voltage.Quote:

also, does adding the 50k VR increase the voltage like it does for the other mods you posted?
Ok, thank you for the tips. I have just the stock cooling on the mobo with one 120mm fan. But If you mean that my cooling isn't good enough I can put a watercooler on it today. Do I need watercooler on the SB and mosfets too or is a watercooler just on the NB enough?Quote:

Hope I can reach 445 MHz FSB on the mainboard without mods.
What does the Vfsb mod do? Which voltage would increased?
