Dear All

many overclockers were complaining coldbug boot issue during MSI Elite OC Summit. So after summit, our R&D guys work day and night, try to find out a solution.

And guess what, we found it!

here is official coldbug fix for MSI P55-GD80, Trinergy and Fuzion. Anyone happens to have these boards, please try out and feedback to us!

Thanks MSI for working this out for us :clap:

Lets hears some feedback on this mod

WOW i will test them asap :)

Damnit CHarlie, you just proved me wrong, I dont like that ;)

Charles, what are those resistants for? Can you give further details??

Looking forward to hearing if this really works

Looks like MSI is working hard on fixing their boards, good job! :up: :clap:

Nice to see this kind of co-operation between manufacturer and community...+1 :up: Might have to snag me an MSI board!!:D

Sweet! I'll test it on my GD80 for sure

You don't need this mod for dice. The boards were having problems at about -90~-100. They should work fine on dice.

My 860 doesnt like dice at all.

test with dice please :D

thanks msi and fugher

I'll see if I can find the time :) DoD (Day of Dice) is usually a race against the clock and I have a list of scores I need to crank out :p:

You see?.......It wasn't "bios related" after all... :p: :D

I know you don't meant it as a joke, but I'm laughing so hard you can't imagine :up:

coldbug fix for P55-GD85, but we still recommand overclockers to use P55-GD80/Trinergy/Fuzion.

something with a PCI-E signal I read in hwbot forum. without the resistor it will be amplified.

I think just a kind of termination was removed...

:up: Good news
:yepp:

Thread necro-ish.... Are there any negative effects to shorting these points? Why did the companies choose to set the resistance the way they did?

Will it be revised for all future boards for better sub-zero behaviour?

:)

You increase voltage within CPU - potentially dangerous

Manufacturers didn't set the resistance, they just followed Intel guidelines.

I was under the impression it was signalling, not power? :)
