Awesome, thank you Hipro :banana:
oh, interesting! seems to be the differences between board to board are not so small as i guess. your board ist different to mine, mine to learn's...Quote:

hipro5: Can you confirm if there is no actual droop on IS7 series of boards? You only mentioned IC7. My IS7 shows a large drop under load, greater than .1v, but if this is just a fake report, then I won't worry.
Maybe someone who has done the mod can try to measure actual voltage and see if the mod is doing anything?
Did you measure it with a multimeter..?.......coz the hardware monitor shows shi(f)t........ :)Quote:

There are 4 big rounded coills near the CPU's socket.......You can measure on any one of those..........Beware coz they are covered with varnish.......You have to measure at the end of them - the spot that they are soldered on the motherboard to the CPU direction - ......... ;)
I think I'm not "using" my droop mod on my IS7 correctly. Right now BIOS asks for 1.55v, and then the trimmer drives it up to 1.58v. I still get the exact same amount of droop. Should I set BIOS higher and make the trimmer bring it back down, or will that even work with resistors in parallel?
u cant make the trimmer bring it down.
So what's a good trimmer resistance and bios cpu voltage setting combination?
I know this is old but can some one confirm for me that thit mod is OK for my ic7 max3?
Well, guess its a little late:
IC7/Max3 droop mod with an offset voltage by woutertal.
I've been running this for a while and it works like a charm. Takes a little setting up with rebooting and all, but you can dial in any droop (even positive droop) that you want.

TY, I got the V core mod done tonight, gona make a cap board for all the extra cap's ill be adding.Fired it up tonight with nothing but the cap mod to the NB on, worked great untill my woman desided she wanted to pick the cap up..broke the little brown guy it was attached to..then left it for me to fix..damn women,Put a new one and and re did the cap mod and fired it up, it postd fine so all is well,I guess ill do some more mod's later on this week if i feal up to it (retarded cold :( )
this mod also works on lanpaty pro 875b have just done itset to 1.4725 in bios overvolts to 1.48-1.5 running 2 instances of prime it stayed steady at 1.472 that was set at 20k will try going lower and see what it overvolts then
hello,
this mod works not good..
Sys:
ic7 max 3, Bios 1.8 / VTT/Vdimm fix / Droop mod
P4 3,2Ghz EO default 1,345v (i use 1,3875)
The problem:
with mod-
i have use a 50k Poti @ 19,98k
idel: 1,34
dual prime: 1,28
without mod:
idel: 1,38
dual prime: 1,34
witch make i wrong?
sry my english is bad. :stick:
mmm... seems to be the mod worked not ok on the max3. :(Quote:

like the others max3'ers posts here.. better mods are known. :D
i add an attention-info on first post. ;)
NO !
this mod works on IC7 Max 3!!!!
But only from 1,5v -----> 1,7v vcore (or more)
this mod dosnt work correct 1,3v -----> ~1,5v vcore
I have test it with 3Ghz D1 Nw (1,5v-1,7v)
Today i have 3Ghz E0 Prescot (1,3v-1,4v)
I need hlp.

Bin aus deutschland kannst du dich mal bitte bei mir melden ICQ oder email? Habe dir bereits PM geschickt.
Did the mod yesterday on is7 , works perfect :D :rehab:
I just have to get an is7-E for myself :D
My DMM showed a .05 droop under dual prime load On my ic7-g, I have successfully cut my load droop down to .002 or so using a variation of this mod.
Anyone who's going to do this mod should measure their cpu voltage with a multimeter like hipro suggested. I finally got around to doing it and found that there was no droop (on my IS7-E).
When set at 1.7v in the bios, the idle in windows is as high as 1.68v and the load can go as low as 1.58v, but with a multimeter is shows up around 1.72v under load! That's quite and overvolt.
So everyone should check their actual voltage before they potentially overvolt their cpus by a large margin.
Which program do you use in windows ?
I usually use MBM, but also check with the AbitEQ. They both report the same for me.
Maybe the droop mod has a bad influence on the diagnostic chip :D
Just to be clear, I have not done any droop mod, I'm saying that there is no droop, so my board does not need any mod. The mod may actually screw things up if the board is correct to begin with.
