i have a pretty good idea how to up the limit but lack the tools to do it. we need to alter the values of 4 surface mount resistors and pencil jsut sint going to cut it as we need the final resistances to be as near as possible exactly the same.
That would be the case if someone else can run 1.45v load 2.6GHz on a 95W CPU and make it shut down. Unfortunately, some people are running 95W 9500s at those settings, even folding daily without any shutdown, which is roughly 150W draw, so what exactly is the OCP limited to and how to find out?

The current supply on the 9850BE at stock is 92A (mine). 9500 is 76A, 9600BE is the same. CPU maximum Idd value is set at boot.
