nice link but it didnt help me. I can get my 3500+ to 2.71 GHz. but if i take my FSB 1 step higher it locks up in graghics. I cant for the life of me figure out how to get a FSb of 250. Yes i am useing the newest drivers. Is there a limit on the chip set ? Or is it my AGP having problems with it ?
:P isnt that ironic? nvidia board, ati video. what happened to keeping it in the family? lmao now we got ati contending.
it's computer insest i tell u :lol:
B) that's right B-otch. i voted Nvidia. i fancied VIA for a while; dependability and performance. but it seems like they're dropping like Abit and others. :o
Well my vote was for NVIDIA, but I must say I'm impressed with the new AG8 I have & Intel may be on to someting for once. I never been much on Intel, I 've always been into AMD til now & still fav. AMD price & proformace wise. What impressed me about the new 775 board was the fact I was able to OC a 2.8 P4 to 3.455MHz without ever having to up the vcore, as a matter of fact it running this at the lowest vore possable to choose from the list 1.3374v & from the chart it should be 1.4v.
I am just not in a hurry to move to SLI i just dont see why i would need it.
Yes, this is why I am sticking to single card solutions. Though the all DFI nForce 4 mobo's have 2 16x PCIE ports on them, but only the 2 out of the three have SLI support.
well, i figure even though i'll probably swap out motherboards every 2 years, i could use the old SLI board for some kind of expandability.
what they need to do is allow you to mix-match. i know it wouldnt all be even, but say (2 years from now) you had a 6600GT and a 6800 sitting in your storage bin(if not, you could always buy them for sub $100). if they allowed mix-match, i could use the both of them for performance percentage: like 6800 at 65% and 6600 at 35%. or what would be really cool is if we could [span style='color:red']assign GPU tasks such as[/span]: the 6800 can do most of the rendering and i'll assign the 6600GT to only do stuff like FSAA and vertext shading. if we could assign system memory to the PCIe devices like the old PCI allowed us, then we could assign an infinite amount of resources to keep up with the future gaming.
also, i'm curious what the'll come up with that can take advantage of the PCIe's bandwidth for our FUTURE SOUND cards.

by that time, the'll probably have an 8800GTS msg opp as;ldfjasl;djfasdf Card lol. but i think it'll be fun jus to play with your options and posiblities
MSI currently has an ATI chipset motherboard, but it has no useful features whatsoever.
Do you have the link?
I'm looking at reviews with ATI's new chipset & I'm not satisfied in terms that they are not offering a hole lot in there chipsets. The nForce 4 looks to be a lot more favorable right now.

ATI's current chipset release for AMD systems was the RS/RX480, unfortunately for entusiasts, it was aimed at getting a huge piece of the OEM market (mainly HP) however ATI did something genius, the allowed their highly overclockable northbridge to be paired up with others' southbridges, currently manufacturers' are offing a ULI combo featuring things like HD sound... as the far as high-end enthusiasts go, im patientley waiting for their upcoming chip set release featureing AMR and other pricey bits. :)
though for now if you want a $200 mobo, nforce 4u is the way to go
what do you need AMR for? :huh: i remember it came with my Gigabyte - GA7DXR+ B) board for my socket A XP processor. i was one of the few to get AMR at the last minute before all manufacters phased AMR out.
