    http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/showthread.php?t=200479
    Actually I have gt an EP31-DS3L a few days back and was fighting with it to get to 3.6Ghz stable on my Q6600 and the huge vdroop was a big downer :( Now bumped into the OC forums thread and found that no solution is yet available for the ISL 6334 based EP35-DS3L and EP31-DS3L....looked into the mod pics of the vanilla P35-DS3L and the usual spec sheets of the ISL 6312 (old) and ISL 6334(new).Had some high resolution shots of my mobo , and so figured out the pencil mod :)....I knew it could

    with no result

    I don't get it why people simply do not understndd that vdroop is not a bad thing. The only situation where you should want to lower vdroop is if you cannot overlock higher because of the vdroop. And since you're only at 3.2GHz vdroop is certainly not holding you back...
    A pencil mod will solve no problem for your (since you don't have one!), it can only cause problems, so don't do it.

        Agreed ^^^

        .09 is not a big droop at all anway, .9 would be of course though.

        If you tried the above one with no results are you sure you are making your mark dark enough with your pencil?

        Try this one with a pencil >>

        Or (Same with Solder)

        Again .09 is not a big droop at all anyway, and as said above if you can only get to 3.2, Vdroop is not what is holding you back at all.

        You can use 1.45-1.5+ in actual (CPU-z shown) voltage in that CPU as long as your temps are good
