Just soldering a Cu wire or using a conductive pen will raise the OCP threshold to a level where you probably will never have to worry about it anymore.

Removing the resistor completely removes OCP.

Both end up giving you the same result, but do it in different ways.

This is what I've gathered from all my readings on here and other forums as well some PMs w/ some very knowledgeable people. I also have a B.S. in Computer Engineering.

I don't know this to be fact, but it seems to make sense. In any case take it w/ a grain of salt.

No stop confusing people. If you remove the resistor, the circuit is broken, and the primarion contoller never gets a signal from that circuit to trigger OCP so OCP is removed. If you short out the resistors, you would increase the signal the primarion controller gets, by lowering the resistance, and most likely lowering the OCP point. The card may not even boot. Do not bridge the resistors.
