Today's Lab-Rat is my Soyo 4SAW2 486 Motherboard.
Last time I modded an Any-clk device into this one.
This now allows me to set the bus clock at will!

In this video I come back with 4 more mods!
1) Added a proper PS/2 port for the Mouse.
2) Replaced the CMOS battery with a lithium one.
3) Recapped this completely (ok I overdid this part a bit).
4) Modded the CPU voltage regulator to gain more flexibility.

The last one was done in the most elegant way
by just adding a resistor and changing 3 others.
The result is that by using the same 3 jumpers this
can now be configured to 8 different Vcore settings.
Form 3.66v to 4.36v with a step of ~0.1v.

Correction!
The deference between Electrolytic and Polymer Caps is in the Dielectric (not electrolyte).
The fist type has an Electrolyte Dielectric . The second has a Solid Polymer Dielectric .
