I've got a BH6/Guillemot tnt2 Ultra and plan on going coppermine soon... Since I despise via chipsets I wonder who has their BX boards at 133mhz...
list the MB type, video card type and other details...

I have a Abit BF6 PIII600E@840 at a 140 FSB
with the AGP divider at 2/3 My CL Annihilator is at 93.3
Had to pull off the standard heatsink and put a better one on. (at least I think my intel celeron heatsink is better.)
If you do this you can count on losing 1 PCI slot though.
Hope this helped.

Starcraft:
Are you sure you're actually at 105mhz AGP?? My Savage4 couldn't handle above 70mhz, they don't like high AGP speeds. What is reporting this speed?

Running Abit BF6 at 146fsb now have had it as high as 150fsb with minor problems but real stable at 146. Using Annihilator Pro, 3 SCSI HDrives, HSDRAM 133 memory.

Just wondering is my cl tnt 2 ultra can survive at 89mhz+?

I think star-craft is just not knowing what he talk about . His main bus is runing at 105 mhz but his video card is still runing at 2/3 off that so nearly 69-70 mhz
because his normal bus normally allow him to run his agp at 66 with 100 mhz bus
and also 2x agp stand for 2 x pci bus so
2 x 33mhz in normal mode 2 x 35 here

Now running my 550E/BE6-II at 770MHZ (140FSB). Matrox G400 is at 94MHz (as reported by SiSoft Sandra 2000). My Matrox is running -- for how long? Just have to wait and see.
Asus p2b , p3 600eb , micron pc 133 cas 2 128 mb ram , samsung 13gb hd , alpha cooler , ati all in wonder 8mb agp vid .Fsb is at 133 and agp divider at 2/3 ,so vid is at 88mhz,it runs at 150 fsb and vid at 100 mhz also but shaky.

Msi 6167(bummer) and v3800@175/210.
I still don't have my freespeed, $%^%#%!!!!!
Got a message from the supplier that they were temporarily unavailable.
But if I could be patient for a week or 2, he'd drop the price as much as 15%.
Go figure how much money end-sellers make on these things!!!
But I'll be patient, saves me couple of bucks.

i wrote a program in C++ using the windows.h header file and a number of others that i have created(and not created) to bench all the busses it's VERY accurate i've tried it an multiple machines and it's right every time.
tijeff:
if the term 2x agp means 2x pci why in hell is the standard for agp 66mhz and not 33. 1x agp motherboards run at 66mhz. 2x agp means that it runs at 2 times the normal speed. same as 4x it runs 4 times the normal agp speed. and this savage does lock up everyonce in a while cuz my main sys will still be going fine but the vid is stuck. only after like 4 hours of unreal turney w/ s3 meatal support for windows. oh and i found out what my pci devider is. in the newer version of the update for the iwill board you can select the deviders seperately from eachother so i can run the agp SYNC. and the pci and isa ASYNC. this board is AMAZING. i like this little feature they added cuz you can clock the agp to your hearts content and it'll work fine w/ the other busses w/out messing them up like the **** pci bus w/ the stupid hd controller not likeing ocing by even 5 **** mhz. Pardon my strong hate for the pci bus.
i would just like to add that i DO NOT appreciate people calling me a liar.

Atrend ATC 6220 mb, PII350@466, Voodoo 3 1000 @89mhz, PC100 Cas2 as cas2 133. Now trying a Gigabytr BX2000+ but Windows does not finish boot with Voodoo??? I think I'll post a new message see if anyone else has come accross this.

Starcraft...........The 1X/2X/4X refers to throughput, not megahertz! It's measured in megabytes per sec. As in 2X the throughput of 1X. If your theory was correct the 4X AGP port would be running at 266MHz. The memory on most video cards only runs @150+/-. Think of it in terms of a CD-ROM. A 50X CD-ROM doesn't spin 50 times faster than a 1X CD-ROM. It has 50X the throughput. http://www.sysopt.com/forum/smile.gif........EDIT-1X/2X/4X all run at 66MHz default reguardless.

Now running my 550E/BE6-II at 146FSB/803MHz. According to SiSoft Sandra 2000 my Matrox G400Max is at 97MHz.
Spencer - There are two factors. The AGP clock divider expressed as 1/1, 2/3 or 1/2. And the data transfer rate expressed as 1x or 2x.
The clock divider divides the FSB clock speed. At the old standard FSB66 a 1/1 ratio ran your AGP at the AGP design spec of 66MHZ. At 100FSB using the 2/3 divider also keeps your AGP at 66MHz. The PCI dividers do the same to keep you PCI hardware as close to the PCI design spec of 33MHZ.
The AGP 1x or 2x data transfer rate multiples the data tranfer. 1x at the same rate as your front side bus speed, 2x at twice the bus speed. As you increase the FSB speed the data transfer rate increases proportionatly. Check this in the mainboard info module of SiSoft Sandra.
SiSoft Sandra 2000 reports my AGP bus speed at 97MHz and my 2x data tranfer rate (also in MHz) at 194. The data transfer rate can be changed in BIOS if the faster 2x speed causes video problems. Of course, in the event of video problems, you can also lower the FSB to reduce both the AGP bus speed and the transfer rate.

For clarification, the above is not a criticism of Spencer's post -- it is an amplification of his correction of earlier posts in this thread.
