i recently installed an evga geforce fx 5700 ultra card and when
checking my soyo harware monitor it shows the agp running at
1.79 volts. i always thought that 1.5 was the default voltage for
agp, in my system bios it is set to run at 1.5. i was wondering
if this additional voltage is due to the card having a secondary
powersupply? i sometimes get random reboots when playing
games and wonder if this is due to overheating of my card?
my system is as follows:

AMD athlon xp 1800
soyo kt333 dragon lite motherboard
512 generic ram
evga geforce fx 5700 ultra 128MB video
2 NIC cards
onboard audio


i don't have anything overclocked.
i am running with the latest drivers from nvidia (53.03)
i have direct x 9 installed

are the results my soyo hardware monitor gives false?
are the random reboots while playing (usually star wars galaxies)
due to the video card?
i have turned off the restart option, yet recieve no error, and
still reboots.
 
firstly, upping your agp volt is not volt modding.

secondly, either your powersupply is too weak to handle the card or your agp volt are way to high for the card to function propperly.

try turning the agp volts down if you can and see what kind of psu you have.

*me thinks it's psu*
