I am tempted to volt mod my 4850, i am not very good at soldering, so i am going to do a pencil mod, im going to do the safe version, and get about 1.4v out of it. I am planning on getting myself a Multimeter today, anyone modded before and have any advice to give me?
 
Check to the decent multimeter, i think i have a decent set of pencils around too. I just got my multimeter just now, and some soldering stuff for me to practice with, if i decide to mod properly.
 
Well my 4850 sits at 30 degrees idle and under furmark stress gets to 54 degrees, no normal games get it past 50 degrees. I have the headroom, ive heard that i should set the bios to 1.15v, then shade to reduce the ohms to 800 ish, to give 1.4v in the chip, the memory hardly overclocks as it is, could do with some volts i reckon. I have the kit to solder, but ive not had any practice, ive got some of those cheap kits to practice on.
