Don't confuse undervolting with voltage droop. Abit has always undervolted a little. Yes, the Prescotts do pull vcore down a little with Abit, but they don't overvolt at idle. Asus is the one that overvolts big time at idle and then droops like an old lady's boobs under load.

The AS8 droops pretty bad as well. A simple mod took care of that, and now it droops no less than 0.02 under load.

Got some links to your mods, fishy? I'm interested, if ever the upgrade takes me.

There is a guide over at XS by hipro5 for all but the vDimm mod.

vDimm mod is just like the AI7, R196 10ohm to Ground, gives ~0.04v less than 3.3v
