Re: Confused with AGP Speeds and Voltage
Posted on 2017-12-24, 09:49
To the best of my own knowledge and reading on the topic over the years... AGP 2x - 3.3 Volts AGP 4x - 1.5 Volts AGP 8x - 0.8 Volts And the slots should be backwards compatible with each other, but can be keyed so as to prevent certain cards from being inserted. Most cards come in a dual-voltage …

Are you using the top x16 slot for graphics, and the next x16 slot (@x8) must be unused yeah, the only card is the GPU and is at the top x16 slot It works excellent, but in my brother's computer (A10 7770K-8GB DDR3) it performs better, for example I can play GTA V with all max at 900p (the monitor …

yeah, i've noticed that. So I won't be upgrading that machine, i've put the Radeon 6450. The 9600GSO is in another machine. I have another question through, my main rig has some problems with newer PCI-Express cards, very strange problem indeed. The slot is 2.0 x16, but in newer videocards like …

CSGO (very low fps), Need For Speed Hot Pursuit 2010 (very low fps) That machine doesn't meet the minimum cpu requirements for either game , even a pentium D would struggle with both those games. You need to be testing games that the machine can actually play. You're about 5 years too far into the …

Thats odd then. Are all the motherboard drivers installed? Are you using asus's motherboard drivers and not the generic windows xp drivers? Does the board have the last bios update on it? I've tested with the Asus drivers, the latest via drivers and the generic windows drivers in both XP and win7, …

What what VERSIONS of the games are you running. Ideally you want to be using the original disk versions of the games from the time. The worst scenario would be if you are trying to use newer steam versions. Do not worry about the 4x bus speed. Technically the bus speed is less important than the …

Re: Do you have SoYO branded motherboards?

to me, excelent brand for it's price in their products. I had 6 SY-5EH5/5EHM and 2 of them were with leaking capacitors. but all of 6 were working excellent and very good performers. Sadly I had to sell them with some excellent 440BX boards.
