I hope this thread doesn't get ditched by Soulfly as I've been looking for a way to measure the v of the card.

Sniper69's pic:



And another one found over the web:



Where do I measure voltage? The capacitor on the top left of the first image? Before I start penciling.

Thanks.

Try the solder point on the underside of the coil under the resistors R450 and R446.

correction mate...that's my picture ok, in fact that's my card doing 820/925, the picture you found all over the world also my card but was edit , damn i forgot to put watermark...

Sorry fixed. You seem to be a 7300gt taiko, hope you can answer my question.

nope, i'm not taiko la..., i got this all from myself and confirmed by Mr. Jian_yi and other expert too...

@sniper69

dude, how much thick the penciling should be? i never done this before.

Draw a small line, check voltage. If there's no increase, draw another line, until you get the voltage you want. Not much more to it.

well, i'm not using any DMM (real super-n00b in action), and from my dangerous step (don't follow) but i'll tell you...
anyway, i just shade just like we did in answer paper (SPM, PMR - objective, OMR) and install the card, run it, if bootable, straight go to nVIDIA control panel to see, if idle GPU temp is increase, if indeed increase, voila, you just did a vMOD, to try it, overclock it...see if any improvement

I forgot who posted this image... but I think it could be Jian_yi

yes, taken from www.xtpcmy.com, but seems have been deletedla that thread, i wonder why...

@sniper69
thinking of vmodding my GC too
but can it be done to my gc

its galaxy too but with the zalman fan hsf

To measure v, black pointer goes to ground (casing), red pointer goes to checking point?

how to mod the point using pencil?
1. just put 1 dot
2. press a bit hard
3.press a bit hard and slide up and down(become thicker)

which 1 ? if not on the list then pls stat out ,thx
i also wanna try

and i just wan to ask wat is the reason making the voltage higher?
it will be better,faster,crazy???

is this for galaxy only ? i bought palit ddr3 7300gt.. isit the same ?

Other brands oso can use.Just make sure the number is the same.
