Guess what i was modding today :)

[Brwmogazos]

i received a package a few days ago from phil with some rather expensive toys in it

FX 53?

SK8V?

1gb OCZ ECC PC 3500?

sounds expensive?

since i had promised him ages ago i would do the mod for his board i started with his board after coming home from my exams today...

Used a 50K VR and treated his SK8V with a nice Vcore mod for higher voltages

I set it up to like .25V gain

Heres the finished board...

i really need a spare psu cos i killed my spare one last time i was modding phils p4c800e ....i have to take everything apart from my rig etc etc to test the board after the "operation"

heres the finished board

i cant wait to see phils results now

As promised i got a P4C800E which i need to mod tonight so i guess i will be busy

 

[aXeR]

[Brwmogazos]

[aXeR]

80w initially mate, I dont push gfx cards to the extreme, but like a bit more than water alone can give..

Its probably not enough in all honesty but then you are looking at 100 quid + for a PSU for a bigger one & Im not sure they fit maze 4-1 blocks..

Wot size PSU u got atm then?

For anything more than an 80w TEc you need a special PSU really or you are going to damage the PSU. It's the current it draws that is the problem.

Hmmmm my 80w TEC doesn't make a massive difference with my 9800pro it would not be enough for a new card I doubt.

 

[aXeR]

the new ATi range are less power consuming so im thinking they wud let off less heat meaning you wouldnt need such good cooling? but im probably wrong

What do u class as "special" PSUs? Im guessing that once again i need to replace my PSU
