    OK...........Here you go......

    Locate this IC......



    ......AND this spot.....one side of the capacitor......



    Solder on this side of the capacitor to GROUND an 100KOhms 25 turns trimmer and trimm it to it's MAX resistance (100KOhms)....

    Would penciling this IC increase the vCore too?

    vdimm and vmch / chipset mods for AW9:

    vdimm:


    vmch: (to the right of the upper PCI-E 16x port)


    Both mods will give approx. +0.1V when soldered in.

    I have tried them both myself

    I can verify that the vcore mod is working.

    Here is also a read out for the vmch, along with a vmch booster mod. (either ends of the thick wire)
    The booster mod is engineered by Hipro, all credit goes to him!

    I assume the smaller wire is going to something you have setup so you can read the vmch voltage w/o having to flip over the board. Am I correct?

    I'm new to the modding scene. I'm just wondering what kind of wire that is, I've decided to finally put my soldering iron to good work but I'm still in awe of all the info out there.

    That specific one is just a wire from an MOLEX -> SATA power cable, but any one will do... The thicker the better.

    Success! Booster mod and Vfsb mod. This was my first time modding a board. Booster was very simple. Its been a while since I soldered but I think they came out OK. There is a little too much bare wire showing but it should be ok. Vfsb mod was a little scary but after reading Thrilla's awesome guide I was a little more confident. Now I just need to find the sweet spot and finally let this e6700 run wild

    If anyone was wondering, not only can you use the read point for voltage, but GURU also has Vfsb labeled as "CPU VTT 1.2 Voltage"

    And a few pics





    Anyone know the safe range for voltage? GURU starts buzzing at 1.45v which is like 1.39-1.4 actual. Thanks for the guides great work!

    guys,
    I would have need to arrive to 3V max on the vdimm, it's possible with this mod or could be of the problems?....which is the max sure voltage that i can set with this mod?

    thanks and sorry for English

    Wohoo! Thanks for the great MODs! How much does the MCH Booster mod increase the voltage? Is the booster Mod just the thick wire and no other modification?

    Seems very simple to do for me!

    Offtopic: Does the mainboard undervolt the mch? Now I'm at 425 MHz FSB with 1,9V MCH. 430 MHz --> blackscreen --> increased voltage to 2V --> still blackscreen. Does the MCH mod helps here or should I wait for another BIOS?
