Is there someone or a site where I can purchase the MADCAT1968 Abit IC7-Max3 VTT Tracking Fix for my IC7-MAX3 motherboard?
I have the instructions here for over a month now and cannot find the time to go purchase or put everything together because of my extremely busy schedule. Does look pretty simple and ingenious to construct. I need this mod to use with the OCZ DDR Booster. So if someone can let me know where I can purchase one or even someone can make one to purchase, they can contact me about it, I’ll be very interested.
Thanks allot guys :) .

this one?
If you can find the parts (mouser and digi-key should have em, google the sites), then its not hard at all. Get a breadboard, connect all of the parts to the board, cut to size, and then solder the wires to the mobo. Seems easy.

perfboard, not breadboard. breadboard has the plastic with the sockets that the components push into. perfboard is soldered and permanent.
either way, it shouldmnt be too terrible. but that would take the availalable time. I dont know of any retail place to get them, and you dont have access to the classifieds to ask there yet.

Like i said, mouser and digi-key should have em.
And I thought you could solder components onto breadboard (looked the same as perfboard last time I checked)
stupid mislabeled products :bang head

It both gets the sweme thing accompliushed pretty much, but breadboards are used in the designing and tweeking steps to be sure everything is right, then the circuit is moved to a perfboard and optimised in layout, untill it closely resembles the layout of the PCB it will be used on, if the circuit makes it that far. then the pcb layout is done, one made and assembled for testing, then mass manufactured if everything is good.
so in this case, being a permanent small job, the perfboard would be used.

You might find perfboard listed as matrix board. Or is that a British thing?
