View Full Version : SoftFSB overclocks board but voltage????

Greetings peeps!

I recently purchased a system that was impossible to overclock in bios and on the board (unless it was an unlocked Atholon and I could change a multiplier setting but the FSB was automatic)

I found out about (and downloaded eagerly) a lovely piece of kit called SoftFSB and after prying open my machine with a crowbar and tracing down the PLL chip I found that I could indeed increase my P500E coppermine to 620 (whopppeeeee!!!)

however, I would like to go a little bit further after this heavy petting but again I am stumped about controling the voltage as I think a small voltage increase could help me nicely and I may be able to get a stable (as it is unstable otherwise) 668.2MHz.

Does anyone know of such a way to increase voltage without me having to hard wire it into my motherboard.

yours ever so happily but not satisfied,

Check in your motherboard manual for a set of jumpers that controls your Vcore. This will increase the amount of voltage going to the processor. If you don't have a set of jumpers for that, you're SOL.

Just to let you all know that I downloaded a pdf on the pentium500E from intel and hardwired (using copperwire (1 thin strand) anda couple of sewing needles and 3 hours of my short life) a couple of the pins together on the chip, the maximum increase in voltage I could get was .05 of a volt...its made no difference boo hoo :(

Is there any other way??

cheers

if vidpinning did not work i'm afraid things dont look so good.

there are mods to increase CV but it involves soldering on your MB and all MB's are different so it would be hard for me to tell you how. To be honest i dont think i would try this mod if i had good directions.
