So it sounds like waveform gets better the more decoupling is added all the way to 21?
Hmmm... did I say that somewhere? If so, can you point me to the typo and I can edit it. So far, there was no net average improvement of 21 caps over 10. I am going to take it down to 8 and check again. EDIT: ahhh, only slightly better on a per-pin basis, but not as an average. EDIT2: if you want even better per-pin, wait for the results and discussion.

Anything I am missing? Anything else? :-)
I like what rasz_pl did with the decoupling caps. If not possible, forget about it.
I have a few more days of testing.
Yesturday's photos coming soon...
Sorry man, there is a lot of info in this thread and a lot of posts I’m tryin to keep up, doin a thousand things here.
If I forget or mis quote just remind me :-)
I’m searching posts for what rasz_pl did with decoupling caps. I forgot what they did? Do you mean with the flat on one side round on other pads? I know that will cause issues on some of the locations, but let me see if it could work for 8 locations?🤔
I see where he wanted me to pull back the 5v plane. Might work, but I feel iffy about pulling from so few pins. I also see more possible problems from that and no real benefit. What if mobo didn’t route those well?
Gonna try and make a better marking for pin one like requested
Pulling copper away from decoupling cap/socket pins may be less of an issue than square pads. But also has issues of reducing cross section.
I’ll stand by for your updates and conclusions.
