btw.... congrats on being the first XS_WCG'er to hit 10million points. that's amazing work!
I'll try to get it online this weekend.
Meanwhile, would appreciate pointers on bios version, bios settings, mobo mods, etc as I am getting older and lazier.:)
DDTUNG:cool:
I wonder if Charles did the debug mod to unlock the bios oc features. I bet he did...
Also Victor Wang wrote a good bios guide here...
LOL. Join the party! Actually, I think I'm 1 or 2 years behind you.Quote:

Now you have to answer one question that's been on everyones mind?
Did the smile come off of your face yet?:D
The motherboard has the debug mod, the memory mod is very easy and can be done with a pencil but most likely not needed. The motherboard will deliver up to 2.4v to the memory.
That motherboard will do up to 480FSB benchable but 366~400 is realistic for 24/7 use.
Well lets see some of those soldering skills of yours Victor:) IMHO I think the badaxe was one of my better mobos... My 6600 did its highest clocks on my old badaxe. It was my Kentsfield that killed it:)
Yay! Glad you got it victor.. now lets see what you can do with it bud!!
Show us how to tame the beast!Lot's of us have it.
Glad to see it made it OK!
I want a lesson from the master on how to get 4100 from that combo on air!;)
glad to see you got it man!!!!!! enjoy!!!! and congrats on making the 10 million mark!!!!!:up:
:party3: :hrhr: :party2: You deservie it! Thanks for all you do! :worship: :rocker: :bounces: :eleph: :bows: :bday2: :party:
I have a rev 304 mobo, so I assume I don't have to add the 5 smd resistors to run Conroe. Charles did the debug mod with what looks like conductive ink, and I plan to redo it properly with either a switch, or jumper headers. A removable Vddr mod will be added while I am at it. Let me know if there are other mods I should do before firing up.Quote:

Hey Victor
Really glad it arrived well and you like it! Enjoy it, as well as the appreciation and friendship we all feel for you.

Here you go: fcg's badaxe thread
FCG is crunching with us, so I'm sure if you have any questions...
Correct on not needing the 5 resistors, thats only needed on rev 3.03.Quote:

I'd put decent sinks on the VDIMM and VTT regulators. I seem to remember a post somewhere about them getting hot and burning out when too much voltage/amps are pushed through them.
Victor just grab the latest bios from here....
Now as for any other mods I would say just the vdimm would be fine... That mem you have will run some great speeds at 2.1-2.2v at 3-3-3-8... I know mine do:)
This ss is pretty much all you need to see.. Although with the newer bios's you now can go up to 50% for the Host Burn-in Mode Percentage..
