How do I increase the Vcore of my P!!!550E FC-PGA? Mobo doesn't have jumpers, no settings in the BIOS. Vcore is at an average of 1.65 (MBM5 - low of 1.62, high of 1.67) and I have a 300W power supply...Any help would be most appreciated :p

Also, how high can I go before I have to stomp out the flames?

You can wire wrap the VID pins for the more voltage.

Guide on how to do it is here (http://www.hardocp.com/articles/intel_stuff/bumpvoltage.html).

I've done this to a couple of my chips and works great. Helped get my old Celly 600 over 900MHz.

just went from 1.6Vc to 2.03Vc...at the same temp :eek:! Well...I went up 2 degrees, I think...but this little flip-chip rocks! Thanks all!
