    So I was on T|I viewing the original voltmod bios thread and saw someone say that they had some of the same troubles as me with the GF116 chip. I posted a big response all about it and the creator of the voltmod ( svl7, all praise goes to him!!) was kind enough to edit the bios for us to work with the new GF116 chip! What is the result? An ACTUAL working voltmod bios for the GF116!

    think about it this way, the higher the overclock, the shorter the lifespan of the hardware. ;)
