Geforce3 on 89Mhz AGP

[Guest]

I haven't seen any post about running a geforce3 on a bx133. I am now using a v6800 (geforce256DDR) with no problem. My cpu is a p3 700@933 on a Asus p3b-f.

I have heard a few horror stories about overclocking the bus speed of the GeForce 3. It may be a problem with the series, or it could be limmited to certain brands, but several people who tried it said it did not work, including one guy who fried something.

Just a point on our old discussion on the AGP stuff Crash.
Running my Radeon 64MB at 89MHz; will this work with standard cooling? Standard being 1 intake, 2 exhausts +hsf & PSU.

You probably know that some LE chips run hot to begin with, which is why some were downgraded from Retail chips. I had a nice toasty LE running on an AGP bus, with it's chip and memory also overclocked, and it never overheated. So the retail Radeon should be even better, a.k.a more tolerant to higher bus speed.
Oh, I always leave the first PCI slot empty.
