Hi there,

I just bought the Asrock G41M-S and i am having some trouble with its high vdroop - In my tests i had set 1.438V in the bios... but 1.416V idle and 1.368 load in windows. Thats 0,060V, quite a difference!

Thus, i would like to ask if somebody knows some mod (like a pencil mod) to reduce this difference, even if just a bit.

Oh, sorry for my bad english, im brazilian and i am still learning.
Any help is appreciated =D

What you are seeing here are actually two things: vDrop and vDroop:

• vDrop is the idle voltage.
• vDroop is the full-load voltage.

So, you actually have a vDroop of 0.048v which is normal. Both vDrop and vDroop are normal and they are "by design". They're an intentional design built into all motherboards. But please, please see this part of my sig: vDroop: Do not tamper with it. Source #2: Page 5, Page 6. It's much safer to just leave vDroop alone and raise the voltage to compensate for it.
