Hi,
is there also an VDroop outside for this Motherboard?
Or is the Modification the same like the P5WD2?
Thank you.

Can you post a picture of the CPU area of the board please.
Here are some pictures. Hope the quality is ok.
When better quality is needed, then i will post.

Can you tell me whats written on the chip I've circled. Could you also try to get a close up, high res photo of the chip please.
Can you post me the Picture of the chip you´ve circled?
Thanx!
Sorry, I forgot to attach the picture. I've attached it to this post now :)
Hi Persivore,
so now i have the exact description of the chip:
ADP3181
J#0515
654514.1
and here the high res pic ;)

The Vdroop can be modified by connecting a VR between pins 17 and 18 on the ADP3180/81. I do not know the value of the VR, you will need to check the resistance between these 2 pins to figure that out.
Also, you will want to solder the VR pins to other spots on the board versus trying to solder to the actual ADP3181 IC. This is the same thing we do on the P4C800 boards. Do a "short-circuit" test on the board to find places that are directly connected to the these pins and solder there. It looks like there are plenty of solder pads available above the chip...this is very good as that makes things much easier, and avoids the risk of cross soldering (bridging) other components together during the mod.
what happends does any one find droop mod for this MB--
becauce I have the same problem

Someone just needs to take a resistance reading to verify what value the resistance needs to be.
Okay, must i check the resistance between pins 17 and 18 on the ADP3180/81 when power is on or off?
When i check the resistance if the power is off, then i have an resistance @ 200K at the circuit analyzer of 129 - 133K.
When the power is on, the circuit analyzer show nothing!?
And now :D ?
Greetings @ all
Push :D
finaly I found this link
http://www.ocforums.com/showthread.php?t=440135
and think it will be the same mod
but what value to put the VR
That mod looks ok. Try using a 50k VR and adjust it until there is no droop between load/idle. Setting the variable resistor to 28k has been found to be the best value on most boards, but it could be different on this board.Quote:

@ milen_bg: do you have test the solution?
When doing any mod, there is always a risk, but using a 50k VR shouldn't damage the board.Quote:

Runs very great! The Mobo does only a very little droop! :banana:

Thanx a lot @ all in this thread!

Hey Treepeter.
Any chance of you posting a picture of the mod?
I have the same board, and I just bought myself some watercooling.
I would like to test it out on the board with a pressy, and the vdroop-mod would be very helpfull to get the CPU stable.
Thanks in advance :)
