can the P4C-800 Vdimm mod be done with fixed resistors?

[Kunaak]

just wondering if i can just use a fixed resistor to change the lowest voltage available from 2.5 to 2.7, that way my limit on voltage is 3.0 volts.

I just orderd a P4C tonight and want a simple mod.
sooo I was just wondering...

Kunaak I'm sure it can, its an easy mod. My P4C800 died yesturday so if you give me a a few minutes I'll go pull the resistor off the board and see what value I had it set to.

Ok with my vr set to 9.29k I had a +.3v offset over bios the bios settings so that 2.85v = 3.15v. IMO a 10K fixed resistor would yeild somewhere in the 3v-3.1v range when the bios is set to 2.85v, this should be a safe value.

[Kunaak]

were you using a fixed or variable resistor?

I just want a fixed one, I am not too concerned about having low voltages, just the high ones.

I was using a variable resistor, I adjusted it while on the mb to get a .3v offset over whatever value was set in bios. I just measured it and it was set to 9.29k. So if you want to use a fixed value resistor a 10k would be a safe bet to get 3v when the bios is set to 2.85.

ah thanks.
I am just looking for a small .2 offset for 3 volts, nothing drastic, just nice clean simple voltages, and clean mindless mods.
I don't really run things to be conservative, so 2.7 day in and day out sounds fine to me.
so this can be done?

I can't wait to see what these canterwoods can do.

with a .3v offeset you voltage options are as follows:

2.55=2.85
2.65=2.95
2.75=3.05
2.85=3.15

I would think with a 10k fixed you whould just be at 3.0v tops. I'm going to look around to see if I can find a post where someone used a fixed resistor and try to find out what there results where

here is a pic of the mod if you haven't seen it, its very easy !
