    So the available voltages above 1.6v in the BIOS are useless, on the Asus P4C800, correct?

    In order to use above 1.6v's it needs Vcore mod, is this correct?


    Plz give me confirmation, thankx..

    With prescott processors (atleast C0-stepping to my knowledge) it is not possible to give it more than 1.6V (selected from BIOS). The system won't boot up. With the mod you can fry your prescott if you want to . It doesn't matter how much you are giving it, as long as it's 1.6 V or less selected from BIOS. Plain "software issue".

    Your 2,8A is a DO stepping isn't it??

    Btw: I also got a 2.8A in but that was a CO stepping and it is a POS, It won't oc.
    So I'm trying to sell this one and hoping that the next one will be a better clocker.
