More details: Apply a layer of double sided tape, then connect a wire into (+) leg of the capacitor. Wired it through the mounting hole, and then connect to the 3.3V leg of PSU jack. Apply another layer of double sided tape onto the wire for protection. Finished the mod.
PS: Damn my bad English, hope ppl understand what I said.

Interestingly enough new board measures 3.7V there. Guess I won't need to raise it :bounces:

If you are wanting Vdimm=Vio(3.3v rail), you need to connect the 3.3v rail to the +Ve side of the capacitor that is in the Vdimm loop.
And don't take the +12V Pin like i've done @ my first board! :D

Heh, I think I am starting to have power issues with this board now...
Anyone know how to do Mosfet mods, etc. It seems like there are lots of solder pad open for additional voltage regulation but I have no idea which one to touch. As for CPU cap mod, which cap is the one for CPU?
:D
256MB BH6 and the 3200+ Winchester dies, but the Board still rocks! ;)
@No Mercy:
Re your post with pic http://xtremesystems.org/forums/show...&postcount=128
is that wire completely bare? Whis is that? Thanks.
are you saying you killed a 3200+ with this mod?Quote:

The mod is safe.

i've increased to 1.75v but I keep seeing 1.680 from the chipset.
As I dont have time to read the entire thread again, can someone tell me what regulator is under the CoreCell sink?
Its named MS-6 49376R8FQuote:

That's just a intersil chip like the HIP ones that's for the Vcore easy mod alot of boards are using it these day's got the pdf datasheet somewhere for that.
Pin 10 to Ground if I remember right...
VDD is correct power trace from chip leads back to the leg of the Mosfet outlined for VDD its not VDD lack of power holding things back :(

Also, what are those blue/red wires running to...just volt monitoring?

lol saw the isl chip did not twig to the chip at the side.
I'll have a gander...
the one circled in yellow seems to be a hip6601 chip.
How many of them are present on the board around the socket?
As far as I can tell 1 * 6601
And.. 1 * 6602 can't see any others
That said there were some mosfets on the underside of the board, can't remember if any other IC's existed.
Boards all mounted in so can't do much much hunting around until tommorrow.
Interesting... the "VDD" mod doesn't do sqaut on this particular board i have (which i replaced thinking this is the better one... the one I sold in fact was much better... blast me).
However, I did notice some gain when I previously modded for this. (About 10-20mhz more FSB overclocking). What is this actually feeding? Curious and curiouser.
