I'm trying to reach 4ghz stable with a P-D 805 on a Gigabyte GA-8I945P-G-RH board. It seems that the reason I'm not stable is the lack of vcore.
That's why I'm willing to perform a vcore/vdroop mod on my board. Since the vdroop is crazy(setting 1.6v in bios actually gives 1.4v-1.52v), I don't get enough voltage for my CPU to hold the overclock.

I've read guides and information everywhere I could find, and I'm doing the best I can to get things moving.
Things are a bit too technical for me(in the vmodding part. I'm a pretty experienced Overclocker).

I guess I'm better off with asking specific questions. So here's my first one:
I tried looking for the voltage controller chip. I found a few chips but none of them seem to have a datasheet on google.
These are the chips I found:
a. K3918 - there are actually 6 of those. 4 in a row, and the other two or found separately.
b. ISL8566, H548QG(two lines. no results on either in google).
c. 331OGH, 549298(two lines. no results on either in google).
What am I doing wrong? Is one of these the right chip? or none of those? I can upload pics if you guys need them.

By the way, if anyone has some other idea how to get the extra vcore, then I'm open for suggestions. I thought maybe a BIOS mod? but I'm not sure I can get more vcore that way, or can I?

I would truly appreciate your help since I'm desperate to get the 4ghz stable. I hope you guys can help me do that!
 
Have your tried searching over on the xtremesystems forums??? they have alot of useful information when it comes to volt mods. (http://www.xtremesystems.org) you might also be able to find some information over at :cough: OCforums :cough:
 
Thank you. :)

Unfortunately I have tried all - Xtremesystems, vr-zone, ocforums(are they like your cyber-foes or something? :p), overclock.net , google etc...

Nothing :/. I am receiving some help in ocforums actually. Not sure if it will be sufficient though. I heard this is a great forum to ask help in so I wanted to try here too.
