so i wont need the wire mod right??..
wire mods also help you bootup - when it cant.

Isn't setting voltage this high dangerous??
i donno - DinoGucci is running @ 2.0v

What is the default voltage setting for highest Ghz available
Intel chip right now?? (2.53Ghz??)
1.5v

🙂

$20,000 and my mother for the 180fsb .... heheh ..... what is the setup you are currently on .... I read you got alot of new stuff but what did u use for the 175fsb? Im still amazed ..... 175fsb!

Thugsrook:

At what point did you determine you needed the wire mode ?

Could please explain ? 🙂

jose wire mods are needed when the system will not cold boot when overclocking.
in my case i couldnt cold boot consistantly @ 171fsb.
w/o the wire mod the CPU will only get 1.5v to bootup from the off state.
w/ the mod it now gets 1.7v.
of course my max vcore can be alot higher now too - upto 1.975v in bios 🙂

HTH 🙂
 
i started a new thread for P4 wire modding - please post those questions there 🙂

UPDATE
i passed all my stabilty tests using 1.84v.
its running a little hot (49*C max) so im now gonna lower the voltage to 1.82v and see if its still stable. (and hopfully cooler)
i wanna gather all the info i can before trying for 180fsb 🙂
 
Exactly my findings Thugs.

I've had some bluescreens with the jumper on that I didn't get with it off. I think there are a few problems with that jumper besides the fact that it also takes a higher setting in the BIOS to get a given true voltage than it does with the jumper on default to get that same voltage (core).

I think the best way to go to get more voltage is the wire mod and NOT use the overvolt jumper at all (set it to default).
 
Also, I changed my BIOS to Normal instead of Turbo1 at 150FSB--which apparently does not lock the PCI/AGP dividers--and my benches jumped up a little bit and it's still perfectly stable so far.
 
Nighthawk69 yep, do the wire mod - ignore the overvolt jumper.
from what im told, the mythical AGP/PCI lock is set for 37PCI / 74AGP. so for you its prolly not much different. you still need a better PSU tho 😉

Dino its a 27cfm 21dba Vantec and only spins 2200rpms - nice and quiet 😀

Camma its a crapshoot. it just makes sense that the bare board would have better chances. right now im @ 2800mhz 175fsb - how could i not recommend this board?

How the heck do you keep temperatures that low with a 27 cfm fan?

what's the stock intel fan rated at again?
