trick to get more stable vdimm on the dfi nf4!

[jinu117]

Few PSUs i wouldn't try this on granted it is same as vcap mod.
1) PC&P 510 Dlx.
2) Enermax (pre noisetaker models)
I've had friend who would consistantly kill A64 memory controller doing it on above 2 PSU. He moved on to OCZ Powerstream and had no more dead FX-55 (well at least on memory controller). Zippy is another one that worked fine for months... where is my zippy now... hmmmm -_-;

vcap mod?

with my TAGAN 480W this isnt possible, right ?

why not?

lastviking, really nice to see you again

well about lower temps, tom holck just told me that his bh5 doesnt like to work below 0°C... wich makes sence, if you cool the memory or cpus the resistance decreases and more current flows through the traces at the same vcore, and if the temp gets too low too much current flows through the chip and can kill it or stop it from working properly ie cold bug @90nm a64s...

What is the best way to measure 3.3V rail without a multimetre? In BIOS I'm guessin?

the bios is totally off on the dfi and some other current boards, i wouldnt use the bios readout to adjust any rail or voltage!

Well, Vcap mod was just me half a sleep typing... the 3.3v line cap mod to vdimm :P

ah ok
that mod doesnt work on those psus? hmmm didnt know that

yea Im back at stock 3.3V rail and 200FSB...still giving me his goofy screen. THink I can save her?

hmmm you might have corrupted your windows install because the mem wasnt stable at that speed... or you corrupted your windows install because your hdd was overvolted? hmmm i hope its the first... do a repair install of xp ...
good luck!

well if its the hdd then we at least know that some sata hdds dont like 3.9v...
