AGP usually goes first. If you pass a certain fsb, you'll see agp tearing in the video. Sometimes you'll hear static or abnomalities in the audio if you have a pci sound card. Anything onboard will turn into slush, lol.

My agp/pci bus is 80/40. No problems. I don't advise you to go that high if you're not willing to pay the price of a fried component.
