Has anyone else tried this and had the same success?

antminer s3+ undervolt

here is the better result

update new firmware
310gh
freq. 150
adv. config voltage 065
HW .003 20 ment. idle

how to drop voltage

parallel 2.2k resistor on VFB to Vout resistor

.68 for 2.2k
.75 for 6.8k

I've undervoltaged my S1s and am considering for S3s. But I thought with the right firmware you could undervoltage the S3s directly in firmware without having to do hardware mods or use the HB-lead method like many of us did on the S1s. Let me know where I'm going wrong and whether the mods make a significant increase in efficiency or reduction of J/Gh. If there's a link to a proven/best method that outlines firmware needed, steps required, etc., please let me know. Thanks.
