– This chip was missing all of the big caps on the bottom, so i decided to add 3x 22uF and see what happens... Gained at least 60Mhz over previous run :)
I'd been thinking about cap modding one of these as a fun dumb project, might give me a good reason lol. Finally got one that does pretty ok ambient FSB, core is ok as well.
Very significant jump in clock! Confirms my theory of the importance of the underside caps.
Every cap helps

Not sure i would cap mod these, but if you have a 775 chip that clocks well and is missing many caps adding some back seems to be a good idea
