overclockerble board with AGP 8x,sis 648

whatusaying · Sep 3, 2002

need advice on a overcloable board with features such as AGP 8x and pci /agp lock.
Thinking of gettin the new 648 board but which brand is the best for overclocking .and which have pci lock

By the way i am planning on using a ddr333 , and p2.26b looking to run at 2.8ghz
thanks

im also curious about the same thing, the new abit board is rather promising, but im lookin at ddr400 (altho a review i read said this 333 board runs fine with 400, which was odd)

OC on SIS648

The AGP/PCI divider is not avaílable on SIS645(DX) and SIS648. That's a chipset issue.
Alhthough the new Abit SIS648 mobo is said to oc on a fix PCI/AGP on a review, that surely won't be possible!
The only solution if you want a higher FSB: Intel Chipset (845E).

Welp ... that just eliminated SIS from my inquiries ... posted in another thread, but any clues on the VIA 8X chipsets?

The Abit SR7-8X does include a fixed PCI/AGP bus, and it does work, so the SIS648 chipset does support it. But, the chipset is probably the worst overclocking one available, maxing out at 150ish mhz.

That depends ... I plan to start from a 25x100 chip, and if I could get it to 25x150 I'd be pretty darn happy.

about 845e, does that have agp 8x

intel will not have any chipset w/ agp 8x support until 2nd quarter, 03

Paazabel · Sep 14, 2002

They really won't have AGP 8X for that long?!?! Jeez, everyone else will have PCI Express by then.

Anonicle · Sep 14, 2002

Intel are scheduled to have AGP 8X on the 845PE chipset, due in a months time. You certainly wont be waiting until next year...

I built my first computer a little while ago with the sr7-8x, but i have some problems with it. It seems to want to turn on by itself occasionaly and that can be very annoying when ur asleep and have an 84cfm fan on it. Has anybody ever had this happen to them? What can i do to fix it? Are the wires mixed up or something?

Paazabel · Sep 14, 2002

I had a machine that used to do this ... I can't for the life o fme remember what fixed it ... I think I had some wake on kb / wake on LAN stuff that I turned off.
