RE: 5V line is most critical supply. Could a simpler mod be done that just provides clean 5V line from linear PSU

Please elaborate more on your idea of a 5V replacement supply at P24 connector. Do you mean replacing the ATX 5V with a linear regulated 5V supply?


I'm think of an idea to use the P24 3.3V to feed a QPI linear regulator, presuming that an ATX PS is to be used. The 3.3V line has very light current loading. By doing so, the P24 5V will be greatly relieved and the interference between the QPI load and Ram etc would be greatly reduced.
