I used a 47K Potentiometer from Radio Shack and adjusted it to 33K, worked for me.

If you want to get the board back to default voltage, you need to use a minimum of about 60k Ohms. I'd suggest two 47k ohm pots in serial. My AK31 was not quite able to get to default voltage through just the potentiometer with a 47k ohm pot.

understandable when i modded my msi kt7 pro2a( i pitty myself for the purchase)
my default voltage ended up being 1.90


will high humidity have a negative effect on the pot.'s lifespan? i live in the southern us and its already getting muggy
