VID MOD 2.66c1 "ate" the only option i dont get it!


IMPORTANT NOTE: this paragraph was added later once the new C1 stepping was released. The new C1 stepping Northwoods have a default vcore of 1.525v. With the original B0 1.5v default Northies, VID0 was connected internally and VID1 was open (not connected), but with the C1 1.525v default Northies, VID0 is open and VID1 is internally connected. VID4 is internally connected on both B0 and C1 steppings. So basically, there ate only two easy VID pinning options for the C1 stepping CPUs, which are as follows:

Connecting VID3 and VID4 to give you 1.725v
Connecting VID2, VID3 and VID4 to give you 1.825v


Does this mean i cant vid my 2.66c1 by joining 3 and 4 for a deafaut voltage of 1.725?

"there ate only two easy VID pinning options for the C1 stepping CPUs" What the heck is he talking about?

forget it

BAtboys post on page 3 was more clear

Ok kids, the new C1 Northwood stepping has now been released and the new default voltage is 1.525v. There are some changes in regard to which VID pins you need to connect when compared to the older B0 stepping. I added a paragraph to the original article that covered the new changes. It's in bold italics, so it should be easy to spot. To summarize, here is the two most obvious choices if you have the C1 stepping with 1.525v default vcore:

Connecting VID3 and VID4 will give you 1.725v
Connecting VID2, VID3 and VID4 will give you 1.825v

LOL... the "ate" is a typo... it should be "are". Boy do I feel foolish. With the Northwood C1 stepping, just use the following:

Connecting VID3 and VID4 will give you 1.725v
Connecting VID2, VID3 and VID4 will give you 1.825v


Since we now know that 1.825 is too much voltage for long term usage, I would only use the 1.725v mod option.
