Ephymerous Posted July 11, 2005 Posted July 11, 2005 yep... i've never used one before...but if the RAM draws its power from the +5v rail (I THINK!) then you can destroy the board... what ram do you have??? is it BH-5??? or TCCD??? (or something different ) BH-5... so u dont think I can use the Booster? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pantonious Posted July 11, 2005 Posted July 11, 2005 The Vdimm power supply draws power from the +3.3V PSU rail... Here is a Vdimm mod someone asked me to do: http://www.rhcf.com/sisubb/ultimatebb.php/topic/31/125.html BH-5... so u dont think I can use the Booster? well, i THINK you can...but i don't know for sure... my old EPOX used the +5v rail for the RAM, and for that reason, it was incompatible with the booster, so i did a manual mod for it... check with the OCZ website, they have a compatability listing on there...and ask around at some different forums...this is/was a very highly anticipated motherboard, and im sure there are many people that have one and don't post here...

Guest Lucky Posted July 11, 2005 Posted July 11, 2005 BH-5... so u dont think I can use the Booster? Ive used the Booster from the very 1st startup on this mobo and has been running on 3.6v ever since, no issues at all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ephymerous Posted July 11, 2005 Posted July 11, 2005 Ive used the Booster from the very 1st startup on this mobo and has been running on 3.6v ever since, no issues at all. w00t, nice... Im gonna try in 20 minutes. First I want to see if my watercooling is leak free Ure reading the voltage on the display of the booster? Or are u measuring on some other points @ the motherboard?

DeNs Posted July 11, 2005 Posted July 11, 2005 Serves me right for being an early adapter... And after waiting over a year for it, this is what they say? Dunno about you guys but i'd much rather know what the hell the resistor is for before desoldering it. I dunno if it's even worth returning the board just to get an issue like 1T fixed for me personally. For others it might be. Yarr, this sucks. Hopefully this can all be put down to speculation and just be fixed with a BIOS update, like half-said in that email... ---dens Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
