I've a multimeter lying here, I'll look for the reading points.
[edit]
I have a bigger problem now. The ram cannot run at 200mhz anymore :S When I used the load optimised settings option my ram runs at 100mhz with 2.5-3-2-5 timings! Anyone got a solution?

My rev2 works without modding it. I can just put in into dimm #1Quote:

Now to find a solution...
so i guess the booster doesnt work on the DFI Ultra Infinity II? :(
Now this is a real shot in the dark, Does anyone know If the the DDR Booster will work with the MSI K8T Master2-FAR? It has voltage adjustment up to 2.65v only.
Considering that board has a 24 pin connector for the PSU main lead and the booster is only 20 pin compatible, I would say not.Quote:

Funny thing is I use a 20 pin EG465P-VE(WC) Enermax 460w power supply and the motherboard is 20pin compatible. So I dare say You don't know much about this motherboard. Just My :2cents:Quote:

It has both -5v and -12v lines.Quote:

What about an Aspire 520w psu? It has 35A on the +12v rail.Quote:

Asus A8N SLi Deluxe , does DDR Boostern work on that board? or any SLi board at all?
Booster does work on Abit NF7, NF7-S and Chaintech VNF3-250.Quote:

The Noisetaker serie has two 12V rail and no -5V and -12V rail, so in this ones the booster wouldn't work!
BTW, AFAIK it works, but the LCD doesn't, as it is the only thing that needs the -5V line!
Don't forget there is also the Whisper Cool series, If that makes any difference at all that is.Quote:

sorry for asking stupid question.
I'm using abit nf7 v2.0.I did the vdimm mod and manage to get 3.26vdimm. It's seem not enough to feed my bh5 especially stressing the ram, the vdimm drop to 3.22v!! So, i'm going to buy a ddr booster. I just wonder that if i install the ddr booster on my mobo, does the high vdimm (3.26v) will kill it?since i did the mod that cannot adjust the vdimm.
I think you will be ok. Hopefully there will be no problems with the mod and the booster. You will get what the booster can put out, usually about 3.8v max. I think I would remove the mod if it were my board.
thanks for your replied!! the main problem is i gotta unplug all the hardware if remove the mod and it's very trouble for me. :P
i wonder that if the ddr booster provided 3.8v max to the ram, does itself(ddr booster) also running 3.8vdimm?
one more question,
"Power supplies used in conjunction with the DDR Booster must support a -5V line in order for the LED readout to function."
i'm using Acbel 450W PSU and i got 3.5v for -5v!! Does it make the LED cannot function well and bring any effect to the ddr booster??

huh? do you mean that if i get ddr booster, maybe i cant even get the vdimm higher than the mod vdimm?
Anyone wondering if the booster works with a soltek k8tpro may be happy to hear that over on the Anandtech boards there is a thread concerning the mobo and a rep of Soltek over there has gotten in contact with OCZ about the issue. OCZ should be sending or testing the booster soon.
...at least I'm excited to know.
