Title: Avalon Voltmod? Post by: candoo on July 05, 2013, 05:49:57 PM Hey folks,
is there any way to give the chips more Volt? (I know there is much more needed then air cooling). I get lots of HW errors with a frequency higher then 365 and I think they need a little bit more volts!. The temperature of the chips is only at 45-50°C! (max is 70 in the chip spreadshet) so I could give him a bit more overclocking. Title: Re: Avalon Voltmod?

Title: Re: Avalon Voltmod? Post by: fasmax on July 06, 2013, 12:45:34 AM I think the real problem is the regulator chip is only rated at 20 amps.
So I don't think increasing the voltage will help much or not at all. But to answer your question. The resistor at R10 is a 10.5K ohm resistor if you were to replace it with a 10.0k ohm resistor you would increase the voltage a few hundredths. I suspect Avalon has already found that the 10.5K ohm resistor is the best value to use it sets the voltage at about 1.15 volts. |
