it's really more of a question of which resistor to shade more than anything else. That said, there can still be variations in 1.03g and 1.04g, but from what I've found with 1.04g, maximum shading with #2 only yields 1.99vdimm actual. of course this can't be said of all boards, and not without a larger sample can we make ventures about the population.

at the very least, why don't you take a picture of the area in question.
Hello Ziddey,
I'd like to do quick try with Vdroop before I put a 30K pot in... shade in resistor beside the one where you do the pot in parallel?? Wouldn't shading the resistor directly take the resistance down too much?

Also, Intel doc, and Asus support forum say something about normal behavior for Core 2 Duo to lower voltage as current increases... Isn't this just lack of inductors on mobo to compensate for the surges in current?

Specifically what exactly does this Vdroop mod do?? (and why would Asus not have done it that way to begin with?)
