    hi guys, i got the EpoX 8rda+ Rev2.1 ..and read that the booster isn't working on that mobo.. but i've just recieved one 8rda+ rev2.1 but Limited Edition, i noticed that the voltage regulator chip differs from that on the regular 8rda+rev2.1 , i'll be so happy to know if the booster works on the Limited Edition of the board.. and one last question: Is it dangerous for the board if i try without knowing if it will work or not.. and is there a chance that the booster will burn my mobo if it doesn't works?

    I know that the title of this thread is motherboards that the OCZ diagnostic thing works in, but here is one that most definately doesnt.

    DFI Infinity athlon board. Have a booster and thought what the hell give it try (yeah I know the site sand list in the box says not to use it on the lanparty nforce board, but I stupidly thought, it might work on the infinity). Put it in and then decided to ramp up the voltage a bit - turned knob to 3.4V and machine crashed - electrical burning smell!

    Board will not boot at all, no matter what memory config I use the wee led beside memory no longer works. I hope to god that the OCZ ram is OK and the Radeon 9800pro and the XP-M 2500 are OK

    What an ass I am!

    I am also on Epox 8rda3+ rev 2.1,and i have a booster but it all depends on what psu you got,best is a 450w or above.

    I run it with a chieftech psu 360w rightnow and cannot come above 3.1v with the booster,with 520w psu it will be easy over 3.4v and higher.

    Asus P5K<*>OCZ 450w<*>E6600@4.0ghz@9x445@1.450v<*>TeamXtreem DDR2-800 cl3 2x1gb<*>Sapphire 3870 512mb DDR4
    Asus P5E X48 DeLuxe<*>OCZ 700w<*>E8600 E0@4.6ghz@1.350v wc<*>Corsair Titanium DDR2-800 4x2gb<*>Sapphire 2x3870 2x512mb DDR4 CF

    8rda+ rev2.1 Limited Edition .. not 8rda3+

    my psu is 450w..

    the only thing i know is that the voltage regulator chip differs from the regular 8rda+ rev2.1 and 8rda+ rev2.1 limited edition.. and the thing works on 8rda+ rev1.1 .. that's why i want to know if it works on the LE...
