In USA you can buy conductive glue in a home depot, In Canada there is also Canadian Tire.

I live in Belgium, anywhere I can find it here ? and do you have any idea what my VID is? cause I really can't figure out if it's 1.15 or 1.225 or anything else...

 

[glussier]

The vid must be 1.15. The vid is a security feature in the cpu. This is the absolute minimum voltage your cpu will be supplied after vdrop and vdroop. So, your cpu vid has to be 1.15v.

As for the conductive glue, I have no clue as to where you can find it in your area. You might want to do an online search with Google or bing.

Alright, thanks alot, I'll try it with 1.15v and I'll try to get some glue, thanks again when it's done I'll post how it turned out

 

[glussier]

You are welcome. Good luck!

Ok so actually a friend of mine had some conductive glue so I borrowed it and did the mod several times butit never worked... I think I'm just very unlucky and when I check the tin foil and electrical tape are on the exact same placeas where I put them and I double checked if I put them in the right places, I started with a VID of 1.15v as you told me and I did the mod for 1.35 v so I guess I have to put electrical tape on 5 AM and the tin foil on 4 AM- 4AL? Here's the data sheet, look at p17, p42 and p45: http://www.intel.com/content/dam/ww...sheets/core2-qx9000-q9000-q8000-datasheet.pdf
Here are the things that I did with MY explanation: 1:http://i1282.photobucket.com/albums/a536/kobekerex/Table_zps04ba5939.jpg

So what did I do wrong?

 

[glussier]

I recheck the specs for your motherboard. The fact that your motherboard doesn't support 1600mhz fsb (400mhz base freq.) processors, such as the qx9770 and the qx9775, makes the vid and bsel mod useless.

 

[kobekerex]

So it doesn't work?... Bump :/

 

[glussier]

No it won't work. Your best bet would be to buy a good used board based on the p45 chipset instead of the g33 like yours.

 

[kobekerex]

And is there any other way I can get the voltage higher than 1.225 v on this motherboard?

EDIT: however... I found a forum of someone that has done a succesful BSEL mod on this motherboard... so then it should work no?

 

[glussier]

I didn't say that you couldn't do a bsel mod on that motherboard, I just said that you can't do 1 to give a 400mhz base freq. You could take a cpu that has a 200mhz base freq. and do a bsel to 266 or 333, but 400 no.

 

[kobekerex]

And what about the vid mod? cause I'm actually trying to pump up my voltage

 

[redduc900]

Curious as to why you seem to be so concerned w/ a VID mod, when you haven't shown yet that the BSEL mod was successful. Perform a successful BSEL mod, then worry about the VID mod.

 

[kobekerex]

But that's what he just said that couldn't be done isn't it? my fsb is 333 so the only bsel mod I could do is the one for 400 but since that doesn't work my only other option (if it works on this motherboard) is a vid mod

 

[redduc900]

So what good is a VID mod going to do you without a BSEL mod?

 

[kobekerex]

If i have more voltage I can get my fsb higher than before with software, no?

 

[glussier]

Seems like I have not been clear enough. At this point in time, the only thing increasing your vcore will give you are extra heat generated, and a higher power consomption.

These cpus have lots of headroom. So, start by seeing if you can increase the cpu base freq. with software, and, then we'll worry about increasing your vcore.

 

[kobekerex]

And why doesn't it increase how much further i can push fsb?
