Jaws how tough is it to volt mod this board?

Lithan it's very simple with the SMD grabbers. It took me less then 10 minutes.

The 1800 isn't all that what it's cracked up to be..http://forum.oc-forums.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=145829

I'm returning mine. Going to wait for the "b"s..

Gonna be taken a hit on the return but oh well.

You should try boosting the voltage. 1.675 is nothing. I go up to 1.75 (boards max) and can't go above 1826 (testing 1827 for the second time as we speak).

Update. running stable for 6 or 7 hrs 1881 at 1.75 volts with Lots and LOTS of cooling. Socket temp is 37* now about 20* over room temp. Case temp is 28* according to my kxr-333r, but I think that's high so Im gonna stick a thermometer in there.

Good job.

What are you running for cooling?

 

[Lithan]

Comair rotron 120x30mm 100ish cfm fan up front 1 side panel (over ram) 80x25mm 32cfm 1 rear exhaust (over ps2 ports and such) 80x20mm 32cfm. Heatsink, sk-7 with enermax 80mm adjustable @3450rpm (Specs say it goes up to 3000 and has 39cfm there, but It went up to 3800 on my asus board and 3500 on this board, no idea on cfm beyond guesses based on rpm)

This is Lots of cooling for me. I normally run all these fans at 7 volt (except the enermax, which gets turned down to 2600rpm) My hard drive is normally the loudest thing in my case (my sparkle power supply has temp control and is inaudible except a slight buzzing when nothing else is on and your ears right up against it)

EdiT: Crashed at 1881 after 10 hrs or so primeing. At 1870 now.
