Guys, the overclocks may not be anything mind blowing, but this thing about modding the EPU chip might be what we need?

Does anyone have any information on it?

kup, sorry for hassling you, but would it be possible for you to mod 701 bios as well? that would be pretty awesome.
I think the board is arriving tomorrow morning so I intend on giving it a good thrashing

many thanks for the modded 702 one btw.

I thought that mod was for vdroop..

Okay basically what I got from the guy is that the vdroop and general overclocking stability is due to the EPU.

Of course you'll have to forgive that I had no sleep in the last 24+ hours so I only remembered some main points and hoped that someone here would be able to make sense of it?!

Just wanted to share and hope something comes of it.

This board has no vdroop with any bios after 0504.

Ah, but maybe mod is better than loadline calibration?

for a note for anybody using a 8800GT

I always set my PCI-E freq @ 110 but when I received my 8800GT, it would black screen after a while. Once I set it back to 100, the problem went away..
I never had that problem with my 8800GTS. I guess pci-e 2.0 cards are just not comfortable at a freq more then 100..

try it and see i dont know why it would be but the only way were going to close this out is for one of us to try it out.

I dont care to try it so it will have to be someone else...
