Voltage Pin Mod on Mobile Barton

[Guest]

A question re my upcoming first overclocking )

Just ordered a 35w 2200+ Barton Mobile from newegg ($77).

Biostar M7VIT-Pro (KT-400) board only has fsb settings, so I'll be using the
wires in the socket pin mod method of overclocking -- my first time.

Can't experiment much as it's a challenge to get my heatsink off past a
pesky capacitor.

After reading all the user comments at newegg, I decided on 166 * 13 for
2158 MHz (3000+) at 1.5 volts (stock is 1.35).

Will be setting fsb at 166 using the jumpers on the board. I suppose it
makes no difference if I put in a wire for 166 fsb or not?

The other question is, to pin mod the voltage, do I need to cut any bridges,
since the cpu is so unlocked?

Thanks in advance!

Mobiles are designed to use a different VID->voltage table. If your
board's BIOS recognizes it as a mobile, it might use the
desktop-voltage table (most pinmod guides are based on this one) or
it may use the proper mobile-voltage table (giving you a different
voltage than you expect).

Sadly, I don't know which your board will use.

Okay, that doesn't help much at the moment. But it's something to
remember if the voltage is goofy.

The board doesn't have bios that claim to recognize mobiles, being an old
kt400, so I hope it will use the desktop scheme.
