whoa that wire mod looks sick...
do you think w/o an overvolt that more consistent voltage will help HW% errors drop and thus a bit higher clock even at stock voltage? cuz that mod seems simple enough.
From what I have read from others on Burnins board thread they are seeing big changes in performance with just a 10mv difference.
a 16awg wire should be good for 10a without much voltage drop.
it will be a couple of days before I can finish up on the watercooling stuff before I can fire the boards up and take some measurements.
Doh! I'm anxious .. oh u already did volt mod huh, that's why gotta wait till WC setup is good...?
Where were the voltage readouts listed, tried finding them in this thread - didn't find them, was it in the avalon users thread?
Bunch of stuff here and the next few pages after.
They are running at 1.4v and higher it seems!!! These are old chips at 110nm i believe! they will run into signal integrity issues with high clock rates long before we burn one out due to over voltage. Going too high will just waste a bunch of energy.
Mine is modded to 1.34v which seems like a good place based on what I have read on Burnin's thread.
