Yeah, I think it has 0.01v on idle and 0.015ish on load.

With a .01 droop you're doing peachy. Its when your droop approaches or exceeds .1v that you should look into a mod. Plus most of the P35 and newer style boards have a feature to limit the droop.

Yeah, I wouldnt worry about it, .01v droop is almost nothing. My IP35 PRO has .02v droop at idle and .07v droop at load!

Plus your idle and load droops seem really close, so it should be easy to compensate by just raising the voltage .01v higher

Should I be concerned with a .08v droop on my x38 DK? I had previously done the mod on my P35 DK with great success but haven't seen anything on it here. How bad would it be to try the same vmod on my x38 if the circuitry looks the same as the P35 one?

Edit: the droop is really causing more trouble at higher cpu volts and any solution would be great
