By good updates, do u mean that we'll see some 300 2-2-2-5 runs?? That for me is a good update. J/k. Cant wait for these. I have a feeling this thing will be involved in some world records.

im hoping by good update he means available to buy soon.
What's anybody's best guess on the cost, if you happen to live in the United Police of Earthmerica? I've forgotten any talk about the price so far and am loathe to review the thread. Besides, that information is probably no good anyway :)
Gotta know how much to skim from my "save for a new car fund."
id expect it to benear or over $100...
dont expect to steal these, its a really high quality part that will be compatible for a long time now, also they are a niche product, maybe not the most practical, but they will be worth the money to alot of people here.
BTW im just speculating here.
Hipro5, is it still possible to use the maximizer when you got no dimm slot's left?
ONLY by soldering one cable(or two - VTT) on the mobo........ ;)Quote:

:woot: Thx for the fast answer, is it also possible to control the VTT by your maximizer on a motherboard that tracks the VTT itselfs(by shortcutting the VTT chip, or something like it)? The VTT-tracking on the DFI nF4 series is very bad... or does the maximizer fix's that already with out taking over the VTT-control?Quote:

Hopefully my question's are clear to you, I don't know how I can ask it more clearly.
You mean the classic 150nm stuff right? :slobber: :DQuote:

With two solderings and one screwing, you can feed UP to 4 x 1GB rams...... ;) :toast:
EDIT: Maximizer doesn't give a shi(f)t about how are the voltages on the mobo......It provides it's own, stable and solid.......EVEN if the mobo is incompatible with it, it takes the control of the Vdimm nomatter what BUT after that, the mobo will not work without the Maximizer pluged in(It burns mobo's Mos-Fets and take advance of the Vdimm by itself)......NOT RECOMENDED such a thing though.......I just mension that just for the record......coz you will need to RMA your mobo when you don't need it anymore after unpluging the Maximizer(mobo will not work anymore - no boot) and that's unethical..... ;) :D
so even if the mobo isnt compatable itll still work? cool, could be fun on old hardware going for that last WR lol.

I will patiently wait for the answer to that question because I was really considering getting that board, but will not get it until I know if the maximizer will work with it.
Thanks.
Hello hipro5, :wave:Quote:

Does it burn them ONLY when you use it on an incompatible motherboard,

or does it ALWAYS burn them, no matter what motherboard or method you use?
Freddy
its works in the same way as the OCZ DDR booster/.... in same cases your motherboard might be damaged; supplying like 3.5v+ to your memory when theres a mostfet connected and trying to output like 2.7v sometimes ends in dead components (mosfet = die);)
Whatever method you use(soldering/pluged module), it burns them - ONLY onto incompatible mobos......IF someone has an incompatible mobo with the DDR Maximizer and he STILL wants to work with it, a perfect method is to UNSOLDER the Vdimm Mos-Fets first(or lift a leg of it) and then plug/solder the maximizer......Afterwords(after the testings) he can resolder the Mos-Fet back and it will be as he was before.... ;)Quote:

Ok, so George, when will these finally be out? :D
Please have someone test the Asus A8V Deluxe Revision 2.0 board Hipro. Sorry to be annoying, I just need to know if it will work before I buy anything. Thanks
Thanks! That clears things up!!! :up:Quote:

that way then - and who knows, one might be able to reuse the fets for some-
thing else, or solder them back on, once he's done with that board, to maybe
sell it then (if it isn't broken)... ?
That's exactly what he says at the end of his post... :poke: :slapass: :toast:Quote:

to get back on topic... is the blue-displayed variant still a possible
option? if so, sign me up for one!
Golden front face + Blue Led Displays + Blue/Red dual leds it is the "L.ED" (Limited Edition)......... ;)
DDR Maximizer will come out in three colours(for now)......Black front face(most of them), Aluminum anodized front face(Lian-Lee colour) and Golden front face
ALSO later on, someone could buy an "upgrade kit" for his Maxi.....Upgrade kits will be: Front faces, Blue led displays+blue/red dual leds, and PCB's.... ;)
That's all I can say for now.....Thank you for your patients guys..... :) :toast:
wwwwwwwwtfff i just skimmed through the entire thread and the maximizer is still not out.....its been quite some time now
anyways excellent work!
