I've used a booster previously on my NF7-s v2.0 in slot 1, the one NEAREST to the CPU, and had to remove the bottom mosfet heatsink for it to fit.
I increased the vdimm using the booster and noticed the following program reported the increases accordingly...

...and also in the Hardware Doctor program that seems to get shipped with most Abit boards.
Does this mean that VTT tracking is ok on my mobo? :)
You need a good 500w PSU to get the most out of that. A 350w is too small. Time for an upgrade.Quote:

Thanks Andy,
Silly billy me linked to a 5k pot I did mean 10K, would the same pot as link but 10K be ok
cheers
Hi all. Has anyone else noticed under serious load like Prime or SuperPi your 3.3v line goes crazy. Example, I set my booster at 3.4v while stressing it fluctuates as low as 3.3v. I have a good PS look in sig but its a 2 year old model. It has pots and have the 3.3v line maxed.
Wondering if I ditch the booster and try a OCZ Powerstream 520 with a modded DFI LP UT 4v dimm bios my vdimm will be more stable. Any thoughts?
Well the cheaper option is to change the pot, which does give more stable voltage.
I would check your psu 5 volt rail when priming to see if its that thats flutuating.
Read about the mod on the booster droop mod thread.
Persivore did an exellent job on it.
I did it and it drops as max 0.01V under load.
But your warranty says bye bye.
DDR Booster works on: Asus P4P800-E Deluxe
2,7 - 4,2v
Load: 2,6 - 4,1v :woot:
Voltage in Bios: 2,55v
Great!
andyOCZ, izzit how far the booster can support on mobo also depend on PSU ? i heard some of them said that booster can up to 3.9v on Abit NF7.
dont care about it, i am using AI 7 where the website state only get 3.4vdimm. but now i able to get 4v vdimm, that's rocks.... go for it, u wont regret.Quote:

gsan, what is in your system? What PSU do you have?
AMD M-barton 2400+, NF7 v2.0, Acbel 450W PSU
Does anybody know, if the DDR Booster works on the Gigabyte GA-K8NXP-SLI? :stick:
abit IC7-G rev 1.1, issues with prime95... anything more than 2.9vdimm and prime will fail with relative memory error "rounding was 0.5, expected less than 0.4".
B
I dont know if this has been posted, but i can get my AS8 to 3.85 or 3.95 i cant remember. UGURU wil only show till 3.5, but i measured with a vdimm and it does go higher, also the booster stabilizes some of the fluctuation of the vdimm, not much but i thought i would add it.
ya... mine too. dont worry, it doesnt matterQuote:

hey guys, whats the max vdimm can the booster support on Abit IS7-E and on which slot should i put the booster??
Hello...
Does OCZ Booster works on Asus A8N-SLI Deluxe? I saw it has a little problem with that heatsink, but i'm interested if it works?
thanks...
should more than 3.4vdimm :)Quote:

DFI
DFI nForce2 Lan Party Rev. A
Abit NF8 WILL NOT FIT. Picked one up at CompUSA- first slot has a cap too close to the DIMM, second slot means that the Booster is blocking the first. Board went back same day.
Didn't trying bending anything, didn't want to risk the board or Booster.
Damn you Abit, why couldn't you be normal and put in three slots?!?! *Shakes fist angrily*
turn to first page??? what do u mean?Quote:

Yup, the DFI NF4 was fully tested by myself and added to the OCZ Compatabilty list with full notes for operation:Quote:

I'm reading about compatibility with DFI NF4. I have a PowerStream 520W (old ones, not like the last revision) and this PSU have a unique 24 pins connector, is there any way to connect it? any adapter :D?
will it go above 3.8v?Quote:

Andy, or anyone else for that matter. What about a MSI K7D-Master running 2 1800+ @ 2400MHZ each and 2 gigs of Kingston non registered ram. That leaves 2 slots open.
Any word about it for the Asus P4S800?
Bump?
Don't know if it was mentioned, but it works on the DFI Nf3 Ultra-D, self tested :)

Any new's on the dfi-875p-t and high voltages?
I do not personally recall anyone testing this board. I did find this: http://www.ocforums.com/showthread.php?t=320663Quote:

Sorry
Ok, thanks for letting me know.
Okay, Well the Asus P4S800 works for up to 3.9v on no-name RAM Via 12 minutes ago. :woot:

Is it 8rda+ rev 2.0 or is it 8rda3+ rev 2.0,becaus if it is 8rda3+ then the booster works on it,only 3.4v thoug.Quote:

was nicht passt wird passend gemacht, ist doch nicht so schwer ^^
What about a Gigabyte motherboard with nforce4? The K8NXP-SLI. Is it compatible? This mobo sucks for Vdimm so it would be nice to use the Booster with it.
I have a question for Andy or someone at OCZ. Why is Leadtek`s K7NCR18D board on your page marked as N and on my Chart which came with the booster marked as compatible? So the booster works with Leadtek K7NCR18D Pro and Pro 2 boards or not?
anyone confirm the ocz booster rev1 or 2 works in the asus a8v rev2 deluxe?
i've read all 15 pages and there's not one saying "yes the booster and a8v work"
How about the Booster and Asus P4GD1?
Nice suport here. :stick: .has any one else tried the booster on a 875p-t???? i get no post at 3.2v on the booster..ill try again at higer voltages.
MSI K8N Neo2 Platinum 3.4V <-- according to OCZ
i can tell you right now the NEO2 will handle 3.6v (tested with DMM on the mobo) as thats as far as i tested with a certain kit of ram...
bb_mod's knows what kit ;)
and BB looks like the 875LE only goes to 3.1v so its possible the PT only goes to 3.1 also.. which just sucks but you also can not use the 24pins with the booster unless you were to extend the length of the other four from the atx plug.
jetway939gt4 anyone know if the ocz booster is compatible with this mb
Where is the VTT option of AV8? :confused: :stick:Quote:

DFI Ultra Infinity NF4 isn't mentioned here
http://www.ocztechnology.com/display...ocompatibility
so i wonder, if i can plug in BOOSTER? And if i can , in witch slot?
I would be grateful if someone could answer my question.
Anybody?:confused:
That motherboard is a 24pin model...we do not test the booster with any 24pin boards because the booster harness is only 20pins.Quote:

AndyT (AndyOCZ) tested on his personal board and found it to work, yes.Quote:

The DFI boards have extra power connectors on the board and handle power differently than most boards. Some boards don't even use the extra 4 pins on the 24 pin at all. Some boards will blow up iof the booster is used. If you try it you could have a bad experience unless you know it is a working combo.Quote:

That is correct :)Quote:

Well my PSU is like that kind of config, 20 pin + 4 pin. So part of the test is done...
As i had said, i had tested on A8n32-sli... Results: voltage corrected detected, waiting for new memory to test (OCZ VX). For the ones that want to help me, use slots a2 and b2, if ddr don't interfear with ocz resistor... Possible dual channel problem because of the layout (slot a1 - capacitator interfear with ocz heatspreader)...
Did OCZ DDR Booster running fine on DFI CFX3200 ATI RD580 mainboard??
Or just use the onboard 4V jumper. Which 1 is more stable?
What is this booster?
This is the booster: http://www.ocztechnology.com/product...gnostic_deviceQuote:

Hooked it up to slot1 with 2&3 holding the memory.
On power up, it displays 25..26...27...28...29...got to 31 and i switched off. I set voltage to 2.6v in BIOS and was worried when i saw it steadily climb. No VGA signal was produced (i.e. no boot). Take it this is the voltage readout?
Got an OCZ Powerstream 520w for it.
As my 3700EB doesnt seem to clock well at all anyway over 220mhz fsb i doubt itll make much difference, but thought id give it a try.
