What exactly is a DB917 /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif (Downboy)? I've also read of a reference to a DB1333. I'm assuming you need a blank Downboy board, but which resisters? What are the pro's and con's of a Downboy? /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbsup.gif Thanks !

A 917 would need the 0.10 and 0.12 resistors. There is a calulator at http://anlighten.com/shop/test.php
Thanks Tyler /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbsup.gif. That's what I figured. I tried plugging in the value for a DB1333 (1.3?) and the value for R2 is showing 0.04, which is below the lowest value available 0.1. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif What am I doing wrong?

The Downboy only has pads for two resistors. To get a 1333, you need three resistors - you have to stack one on top of another on one pad. I'm not sure about the values you'd need, though. Two 0.1 resistors stacked on one pad would equal a 0.05 resistor, and with another 0.1 resistor on the other pad, I *think* you'd get a DB1250. Not sure about my math, there, though.
