Read the Vcore with multimeter?

Rev · Nov 16, 2006

Can you read your cpu vcore while under load using a multimeter? Where would you have to put the multimeter leads? Seeing as I'm a physics major I have access to incredibly sensitive multimeters and I was wondering how accurate the P5B really is.

Good question.. I'd like to know too.
And some kind of mod to get rid of the vdroop on the p5b-dlx.

You actually can. One way is to look up the pinout for the processor and read it from the vcc pins. You can also read directly from the mosfets that regulate voltage on your mobo.

TTT. If anyone knows anything more please let me know.

I'll try and find my own answers and hopefully this weekend I can make some report on how accurate the vcore actually is.

look up the Vcore modification (IE Vcore mod) for your partiular motherboard, the Vcore read point (usually a mofeset) is marked in the Vmod guide.

I don't like saying look something up, but its different for every motherboard, and that could cause confusion.
