SPD chip has namestring, default timings, voltage(?), etc.
I'm unsure if spd chips from generic pc3x00 ram would work on any stick... but it cant hurt?
So your saying that if you adjust at the deasktop from 3.11 to 3.13 you lock up right there? If you lower it fromn there do you also lock up?Quote:

I just ran a simple test:
I removed r422 with solder wick, no prob.
I tinned the pads lightly.
I set a 10K ohm VR to 2.15Kohm
I soldered the VR to the pads, no additional fixed resistor....
Increase resistance to increase Vddr
If i get bored maybe I'll try it the fancy way with a second resistor.
EDIT: Seems that if I adjust the Vddr at 3.13V+, my desktop just LOCKS UP!

actually I'm at 3.15, running spi. 3.16 or so is where it locks
I can run sPi at 250, 1:1..................
:D

3.15 is better than 2.86v. I can't imagine that keeping r422 in the circuit would make much of a difference. r422 and the vr looked to be in series in the original mod. Should be able to make up for removing it by increasing the vr
Is 3.15V safe for an FX53 long term?
I would think it would be fine. Charlie, what do you have your 3.3v rail set at?

about 3.40v
I was just thinking if you increased your rail, would be able to get a higher vdimm
No, I think it has something to do with the Vddr "circuit" that Asus employed....

The person i need to ask about reprogramming is out the office.
If you get the chip back on ok why not mail Kingston..OPP has a contact im sure would help you.

I hope I can get the chip back on ;)
It looks like i'm going to have to solder-wick the pads and then re-solder all 8 legs :(
Hopefully I can find SOMEONE to program it...

Oh man! I can't believe you did that. When I read the post of the guy who said to remove it I thought he was joking. Rats!
Nice try there Charlie....Following your situation cause my bh-5 are also khx pc3000 :rolleyes:
Reel pioneer there Charlie....love your "courage" (sry for the spelling)
Actually it was REAL easy to put back on :DQuote:

just place the chip back exactly on the pads, and take a heat gun (not to be confused with hair dryer) and heat the area, the chip like "sucked" back down on the pads, no prob.

And it works?Quote:

Of course :D
Had to apply a Jedi mind trick, but it works fine :D
A little bit crooked, but 99% "Taiwan spec", maybe should ask Bigtoe for a job ;)

Bigtoe, are you planning on testing the memory voltage gizmo thingy on an Asus A8V anyime soon?Quote:

Yeah, I want one of those now! How much?Quote:

Charlie, good deal man! Glad it worked.:toast:
I think the last ram slot on the a8v has plenty of clearance for the thingy to fit.
honestly i dont see how the current version will work on any amd dual channel board while keeping dual channel. Ive filled all 4 dimms and there is zero clearence
Another reason to go S754!:DQuote:

Bigtoe...how do I buy one?:confused:
I'd be happy to participate in the testing. I have several A64 systems.:toast:
mongoose - The pics are of beta units.
Well obviosuly it would only work if you fill 2 slots. Ryan seems to think the current model will work on A64 and other dual ch boards as long as there is fit room.Quote:

you have to use the blue slots 1&3 to get DC according to the manual. I With all the bits and bobs on that side of the stick, even with only 2 sticks it will be very very cramped for room if its at all wider than my sticks with heatspreaders
