i already did the resistor vdimm mod. i'm to ignorant to all this v-modding because everyone has a different opinion on which vmod is better. i read a post by persivore that the resistor vdimm mod is propably more stable.
i did the vdd and vdimm as written at the motherboarfaq site.
i'm bookmarking this because if i get another nf7 board, i'll definitely your mod.
did you ever have the resistor method? if so which gave you a better overclock?
thanks for sharing all your info., i will put it to good use.

This is the only method I did because I was wanting higher voltage and I don't think you can get full vIO voltage with the resistor mod (I could be wrong). With this mod you can get all the voltage of your 3.3v vIO line, which I took mine up to 3.4v.

the resistor vdimm mod is volt limited by the psu. if i want 3.6volts i have to adjust my psu to put out 3.8.
i'm going to run my pc 24/7 oc'd with 3.4 volts after a ram cooling mod i'm going to do to my case.
i have a second nf7-s v2(colored dimm slots) i'm getting as a hand me down, with that board i'll do your method.
a little offtopic here, i'd like to than stevil for all his help. i pm'd him some time ago about modding my board and he's one of the main reasons i performed the v-mods to my board :) thanks stevil :).
cartmanea your mod will be executed on that board i'm getting. i'm no longer fearful of soldering and your mod looks awhole lot easier.
do the vdroop mod with resistors and post some pics, i want to do it too but theres no pics for a reference guide.

Sorry, I can't post any more pics since I no longer have my NF7-S. I currently am running a DFI Infinity and it is unmodded :(

shoot!!!
i've read the vdroop thread here where persivore posted the info on how to do it with resistors, problem is, i'm an extreme noob, i can't paint a picture on how its supposed to be done.
i'm thankful for all your info in your thread, it looks like i'm getting the hand me down board soon.
i hope that dfi takes care of you.
