Default XFX 8600GT *UDF3 Voltmod
Here's another! It's the same layout as the UGE3 7600GT from XFX

Okay, tools needed

*multimeter
*Pencil
*Isopropyl alcohol 85% or better


First things first. Clean the back of the card off so our pencil leaves a good mark.

Then take a multimeter and measure these two points and there corresponding resistance




THIS WILL RAISE YOUR TEMPS UP 15-30C WITH A GOOD AFTERMARKET COOLER. IF YOU ATTEMPT THIS WITH A STOCK COOLER IT WILL RAISE YOUR TEMP UP ABOVE THE SAFE LEVEL

overclock.net and PaRaDoX are NOT responsible for what you do to your card

What are the starting resistences? About how many No.2 pencil swaps do you estimate is needed?

430ohms core and 610ohms memory

I used a thin line due to stock cooling bringing the core to 310ohms and the memory to 570ohms

is that a special pencil ? and when you draw the line, is it on top of the resistor, or on the pcb board?
