Heh.. so that's why it didn't work ;) I will try this tomorrow.. anyone care to comment whether this is the FINAL version of the mod? So that I won't have to solder again.. :)

Ok, so I've re-done the whole mod - and now it seems to work properly.. My temps rose from 42C to 45C :) Anyway,I didn't have time to measure the voltage with a DMM but I will try that today, it seems that BIOS/CoreCentre/MBM all give false info about the current voltage.
I second that.
According to vcore in bios the max i could reach with the trimmer was 1.70V.
At 1.71V the ovp kicked in and switched off.
Can't tell if these values are accurate b/c the mobo is already on its way to a friend i did the mods for and 1.7V is plenty for him to play with. ;)
Set vcore volt to the max in bios and go from there?...
I did! ;)
Don't ask me what bios ver. it was, but i maxed out both settings for vcore and didn't get more than 1.7V outta it.
Your Right OneProdigy, thanks M8 :toast:Quote:

DDR-booster don't seem to work with 24-pin PSU according to OCZs' site? Is there 24pin model coming?
Where is the vdimm sense???
Just user a multimeter on pin7 of a unused ddr slot to monitor vdimm. (pin1 ist vtt btw)
Teukka76: With the rail mod max vDimm will be ~0.05V below the 3.3V rail.
So if you mod your psu's 3.3V rail you can actually adjust vDimm with your psu.
You can find a nice guide for tweaking your psu here: ;)

With this mod i was able to go up to 3.8V on the memory.
Ok, thanks
Hey Guys, this is going to be my first attempt at voltmodding
What does that yellow line Represent? in the picture of the vcore mod?
Also i assume this is same for Platinum and Diamond Boards?
Keeping this thread alive.
My DFI nF4 Ultra-D didn't perform anywhere near the MSI Plat/SLI
DFI lost 100 MHz in OC regardless of voltages over the MSI,even with 1.55vcore on the MSI.
Gonna do the vcore mod on the MSI and send back the crappy DFI * that took 2 days to get to boot :cussing: * suffering from 2 dead fan headers.
so just have to connect those to components, with between them a multimeter so that you can adjust the voltage right???
but what if i solder really bad? can i fry everything?
Are any of those parts heat sensitive. Basically do i have to worry about using a low wattage iron? i just dont want to fry anything out, and same for the vdimm mod. http://www.rhcf.com/sis-bin/ultimate...1;t=000164;p=0
im planning on doing all this when my waterblock comes in in wed, might as well while i have the board out, i also plan on soldering an inline jumper as an on off switch for the vcore and as a off-3.0-3.3 toggle on the vdimm. Am i thinking along the right lines here?
heres the VDIMM mod for Neo4 SLi, will be installing tomorrow
can someone tell me where to read Vcore from K8n sli platinum? i have some Vcore fluctuating (according to cpu-z) and want to know if its real or its bad software reading like all sw voltage readings :)
same problem here,my vcore fluctuats about 0.03 volts.Quote:

also i like to do the mod with a resistor to give me about 15 to 20% raise over cpu-vid
currently my max vcore is 1.42 (1.3+9.9%)MAX :(
i have an x2-3800 E6 core
please help me past my 2680 barier :toast:
edit/maybe it would help to increase the 3.3 volt line to stabelise the vcore,anyone ?
