I didnt know what forum to put it in since it covers videocards,OCing,and motherboards and even other compononts,so I am sorry if you think it is an ill placed question.
I have discovered that my g400 max does 100mhz AGP with everything enabled
except AGP x 2(have to use x1) and it does it without a hitch period.
So I was doing a little tweaking and I decided to increase the I/O voltage to 3.5 up from the default 3.3.......and guess what,I could do AGP x 2 rock solid in everything,including q3(3.4 I/O had freezes,but 3.5 was solid)in fact everything seems peachy at that AGP speed when the I/O is increased to 3.5.
So my worry is..........will the increased I/O voltage do any real long term harm to my system,I was thinking it would not,because it is a very small voltage increase,especially when processors are commonly increased by .1 -.3 volts without any real adverse side affects.
And what else besides my ram and vidcard get a voltage increse?Does my modem and HDD and soundcard get the same voltage increase,along with everything else on the MB????
Any help is appreciated greatly.
