Is the Radeon 8500 stable on a BX mobo @133fsb (89Mhz AGP) without having to drop back to agp 1x ??? I need to know before I buy one. Thanks.

don't worry, the radeon 8500 doesn't even support agpX1. It's 2 or above for this card.

Not a problem to run your BX board at 133 fsb with a radeon 8500. I had a BE6-II version 1.0 one of the best damn ovewrclockable BX boards ever made and I ran my Asus Geforce DDR 32 Deluxe card at 89mhz (133 fsb) and never had any probs. Any of the video cards from last 2-3 years can do it , I believe my Rage Fury Pro did it as well. Grab it up and have some fun!!!
