dosn't matter what it's set to, it will be overridden by the mod. I'd set it to the lowest possible because that voltage afaik, is still being fed to some things, so it'll take a little bit of stress of things possibly.Quote:

The switch is rated for 6A at 125VAC, and 3A at 250VAV. I do not know the values for DC.
I think this switch should work just fine since the voltage is so low, right? I mean, when the voltage is halved (at high voltage) for AC, the max current is doubled (ohm's law).
I just do not want to blow or short my board :).
Also, is there an easy way to mount this onto a motherboard? I saw a picture where someone did this, and I am not exactly sure how it was done.
Thanks.
any idea if the 3.3v rail vdimm mod will work on the neo4-F/FI/platinum boards?
It will should be close to the same layout, but just poke around on the back of the mobo with a multimeter on cap legs near the dimm slots and find one that matches ur vdimm.
Been searching,and cant find overclocking threads for the k8n neo2-f.Is this the same board as the platinum.The bios on msi sight shows bios for both boards as same versions ie same numbers same size kb.The reason i ask this is. In my haste i ordered the neo2-f.It will be here tomorrow.Weather n the east permitting.The differences being lan and sound and whatever.Ive seen a couple using 146-148 opty's.Long story short; after burning my asrock sata2
to get 1t timing.
What bios do i use for opteron
Will modded bios work
Can i use same bios as platinum
Has any1 tried the universal 3.3 vdimm on this board .Im not a bad welder ,but these sodder mods i can't handle.
BTW THX n advance
Sorry if this has been said before, but I can't find any reliable information and am sorta confused.
I did the 3.3V rail VDimm mod (connected 3.3V rail to the + side of cap near memory).
Where do I put my multimeter leads to verify that my memory is indeed running at 3.3V?
My motherboard is the MSI K8N Neo2 PE (non-54G).
EDIT: Nevermind. Found it.
guys, i have been running the ddr booster and the durn things pisses me off as i could never get it to read exactly what the mem voltage was set to in the bios (always .2v or so off)
whats the easiest Vdimm mod for this MSI board now that people have different ones out?
http://www.lejabeach.com/MSIK8N/VdimmMod/k8nneo2-4.jpg is this the easiest way to get 3.2v or 3.3v to the memory?
need a v-core mod details for MSI K8N nforce3... i remember there being pictures but I don't see them anymore being shown in the links/pages
It would be nice if anyone culd give us some new pics on the vcore-mod. I need it!
thx m8´s
yea same here
done the Vdimm mod
Keen on doing the Vcore mod but around here, or lejabeach or anywhere every picture relating to Vcore ive found is dead.
Read everything ive found relating to it, but they all point out things on the dead pictures :(
Me too my winchesters want more and beter volts :p:
how the hell do you measure the v core? i saw pictures up here and followed them but got no voltage. I know how to use a multimeter... i'm measuring across the right side of the two inductors but get nothing
Nobody on xtreme systems can help me with pics or something to mod mij msi with vcore mod and more?
ZL1Killa, ground into the case, live wire you have to touch to the bottom of the inductor coils
Where they actually connect to the mobo..

AND START BY SETTING MAX VCORE IN BIOS MAKE SURE U SET HIGHEST RESISTANCE WHEN IN WINDOWS RUN CORE CENTER THEN SLOWLY TURN THE VR TO U GET THE VOLTS U WANT
IF YOU REACH THE OVP AND IT SHUTS DOWN TURN BACK THE VR OR MAKE A WAY TO DISCONNECT THE MOD BEFORE STARTING BACK UP
was wondering why the 2 pictures where off different motherboards
hence i did an edit since i figure'd out its cause they use the same chip to regulate heh
