800seV2 460MHz mod

Unread postby zmeura » 30 Mar 2014 10:59

It's possible to run your dm800seV2 at 460MHz instead of the default 400MHz.
All you need to do is move a resistor (R1818) from the bottom side of the mainboard to an empty resistor spot (R1819) at the top of the mainboard.

Please note, you need to have good soldering skills and preferable 2 small soldering irons to remove the resistor, of course smd soldering equipment would be ideal !
