Official GIGA P35-S3/DS3/DS3R/DS3P/DS4/DQ6 bios/info thread

hmmm that vmod looks a lot easier than what sham showed us in http://www.vr-zone.com/articles/Giga...w/4966-10.html
so which mod works the best, and which of them I should do?

I need that vdrop mod, this GA-P35-DS3R rev1 board has a huge vdrop in my opinion, even with this e2160, and in just a few days I get my Q6600 G0 soon I have a lot of fun (and hopefully some certain games won´t drop in fps...)

I´m not afraid of those vmods introduced by sham but if there´s a easier mod available I think I should go with that.

LOL. Yeah you can't get any easier than just bypassing a single resistor with some conductive paint or whatever. It seems to be working fine. I am stable at 3.2 GHz with stock volts now. I also found a mod for my 965P-DS3 3.3 that covers the same resistor.

I have to say that I'm rather confused as to why Gigabyte lowered the voltage like that in the first place, if it can be fixed by just bypassing that single resistor.
