this is a pretty low overclock right? lucky my mobo runs 144 fsb at 36 mhz pci. 96 mhz agp doesnt seem to be a problem for my vid card.
just wondering if i pop in a sblive! or tb montegoII if they will handle 36mhz?
since those two cards are known to have problems when overclocked.
just wondering what to expect.

oh, sorry for so many questions lately!

thank you,
sendatooli.
 
I am using a sb live value card right now at 37mhz.
Most cards can handle 36mhz maybe a network card would be a probelm.
 
I have used a sb live at 39 Mhz. Stay clear of dvd decoders though especially the realmagic based ones.
 
My PCI bus is at 41.5 Mhz and I am not having any card issues.
SB live value
GF2 Ultra
Aopen Network card
Although Explorer is not happy and causing some problems that I am attributing to the high PCI Bus speeds
 
running 41.5 rock stable here. Have a 3COM Office Connect Card and an SB Live! Card that are doing just rin. Also had an ATI Tv Wonder card that was fine too!
