yeah your right, with out golden flamers mod i couldn't get past 2.95v so you need to feed the fet with the 3.3v rail. i don't see why you couldn't supply the fet with the 5v rail so long as you use an appropriate resistor in series to drop the voltage to say 3.5v but i don't see why you would need more than 3.3v, anything higher than that and i think you'll shorten the life of the board and the ram by too much.
I end up just using the 3.3v line. I thought about the 5v line, so he wouldn't have to mod his PSU. I also did some search around here, and I think to do that I may have to replace capacitors and so on. Thanx, bro. ;)
no worries, like i said i think 3.3v it's plenty anyway.
I was taking a second look at the specifications for FAN5063, and I see that pin 6 is the 3v feedback. Maybe if we solder a resistor there, we may be able to increase the voltage for the FET - limited at 3v.
I don't know if that would work for sure but i guess yeah that would work. I still think it would be easiest to just use the 3.3v line because that's been proven to work and most new ram these days is fine running 3.3v. let me know what you decide to do in the end and what results you have
3v on that FET is a joke. I think if it works, it'd be way better than doing all that work just to get 3.3v running in that FET.:rolleyes:
Malves there is a diode near the MOSFET that can't hold the current generated by High voltage on DIMM (This diode can't hold 2.9V Current stable, because without any mod, the voltage fluctuating between 2.92 and 2.88V) I Recommend the link to 3,3V Rail, that's give more voltage stability. You must exclude the Diode or you risk to have too much voltage fluctuating.
can you show me where on a pic?
No i can't post picture.
