Asus X38 P5e/p5e3 Dlx/maximus Formula Vdroop Mod

[chance]

Here is how you do it:

1. Remove all the cooling system from MB (northbridge/southbridge) its a "all in one".
2. Pencil it or connect a 1000K VR across

NOTE: Pencil 1B its not enought to resolve de 0.5v vdroop issue (only does 0.2/3v), you need to use a graphite pencil (3B) to stay at 0.0v

That would be like, a dream.
What if manufactures started doing VDroop mods before shipping?
That would be something worth purchasing, but they would probably make it $20 bucks more, when it isn't worth that.

OMG i have looked now, and the resistor are RIGHT under the heatpipe system...i must detach the whole coolingsystem just to do this mod..

the Load line calibration do work, there are no whatsoever droop in load anymore, though its a DROP from what u set in bios, 1.70 are 1.668 real..
THAT must be fixed...

I could only find 2b pencils where I'm at, how many passes are necessary you think?
