To do the mod just solder a 33k resistor or a 50k VR (set from 28k to 33k) and solder to these points on the board
 (thanks to malves for this photo)
I used the 33k resistor and the alternate solder points shown in the photo as blue dots. It took me no more than 5 min to do the actual soldering.
Also I suggest dropping down your divider to 5:4 to get the most out of your CPU and FSB. Right now your MEM is most likely holding you back.
P.S. The photo above is for the P4C ONLY not the P4P, as the P version has other solder points. |
thanks for the picture...
I think i will try this mod... after i RMA my MB.
Had a leak... in one of my connections from hose to copper elbows...
so i have some time now to solder barbs on all my elbows...
when i do get it up and running i won't need to drop my divider down to 5:4 because i bought some pretty quick ram... OCZ PC4200 sould go upto 275FSB
