View Full Version : 89Mhz AGP bus speed too high? Sandra thinks so.

On my mainboard info from Sandra, it's telling me that my AGP bus speed is too high. It's currently at 89Mhz. BTY I am running at 133x9.5. You'll find my system spec below.

If it runs stable its not to high IMHO. Sandra tells you that your bus speeds are to high even if your only 1MHz over spec so take that into consideration too.

Ok, how the heck is your AGP bus speed at 89mhz when it should be 1/2 of 133? That would only be 66mhz, the normal. When you hit 133, the AGP speeds are automatically changed to 1/2 the FSB as well as the PCI speeds changed to 1/4. I think your Sandra program is screwed up.

Well, so far, it's been stable. And I am getting unheard of FPS for a 1st generation MX card. 99FPS in Counter-Strike stabe. If it doesn't frie, I guess I'll keep it at these settings.

OK, video did crash. Now how do I set it to lower AGP bus speeds? 133fsb by what you guys said, it AGP bus should be half of that? Am I suppose to lower the fsb to 100? This really makes no sense since I can't imagine why you would have to lower your fsb so that your AGP would work. My Tbird is 266fsb, which is why I set my fsb on the mobo to 133 in the first place!
