Installation OCZ Booster

The Booster's installation is straight forward with inserting the Booster in the memory slot as you would a memory stick.
I chose to plug in the two 4 pin Molex prior to inserting the booster in the memory slot. Because I had the motherboard out for the review it was easy to insert.
The Installation Guide informs you that the Booster may not fit certain motherboards due to variations between motherboard socket placement and other electronic devices nearby. For instance the P4P800-E memory location is towards the end of the motherboard, the height of the Booster, as seen in the side view, may make installation in a small case difficult if you're to close to the drive bays.
Some considerations to keep in mind if you intend on using the Booster.


The Molex are labeled L (left) and R (right) with color coded dots to make it dummy proof. After you have inserted the Booster and plugged in the two 4 pin Molex you would then plug in the male side of the ATX12V 20 pin Power Cable Adapter into the motherboard. Take note if you have a 24 pin connector on your PSU, you'll need the split type 24 pin connector.
Another potental issue with the PSU is, that a -5V line to the power connector is required for operation of the LED. As luck would have it, the Thermaltake TWV I'm using does not have that line. Which for me really didn't matter since I can not see the LED once the Booster is installed. Something that would be a minor issue for some, since I'll read voltage from my multimeter anyway.
This brings us back to my comment earlier about the VDIMM of 3.9V displayed on the box. The Booster is warranted up to 3.9V and certain chipsets/motherboards may allow for higher. Let's say I can confirm 3.9V with this chipset/motherboard and then some. The Booster does have a small screw under the LEDs for adjusting the readout if calibration was knocked out during shipping.


Last we need to plug in the female end of ATX12V 20 pin Power Cable Adapter to the PSU male ATX12V 20 pin connector.
Now do take the time to read the Installation Guide, especially the Warnings and Disclaimers.
You need to make sure the Voltage Adjustment knob is turned as far counter-clockwise as possible before you fire up your rig. I found the lower I set the voltage in the BIOS, the less sensitive the voltage adjustment knob was to adjust. Adjustments should be done while in the BIOS. Above 3.4V active cooling should be used.
