Vid pin works like a champ

did the 4-3-2-1 wrap, took about a minute to get it wrapped and secured. booted up after applying some more di-electrical griese and low and behold default voltage is indeed 1.85 (1.8 actual)
when I set it to 2.2v in the bios i get 2.1-2.15.
no voltage protection like i got with the vregulator mod.
I'm now able to run 3dmark @ 2850+
