    Retro ocer needs help, vmods for 8rda+ and abit nf7!

    I'm planning to do some water and dice runs with good old socket a athlons/duron/semprons and i've 2 great mobos for that epox 8RDA+ and Abit NF7.

    But now i've a problem, as it's been almoust 7 years since socket a era so there aren't really any mod instructions left with pictures. If some of you has pictures etc in depth of your hdds could you kindly share em?

    Checked xs forums already and googled for ~50mins about this :|

    there used to be a site called 8rda.com, it later became a pr0n site tho, quite funny... and the 8rda.com wold first allow you root access to all content, and a few days later redirect to the pr0n site... oh those were the days

    anyways, ditch the 8rda+... the 8rGa+ was better cause it had more chipset voltage adjustments and vdimm iirc.
    on 8rda+ the only way to get higher vdimm was to cut a trace on the board or use an ocz booster or hipro maximizer, huge pita to do the mod...

    Modding a old board doesn't scare me and i've already 100% recapped that 8RDA+.
    And about vddr mod: "You will get approximately 3.2V VDDR out of this mod." which should be just enough for me ^^
