    G400 on a 133 FSB

    Quick question. Does anyone out there have a G400 running stable with a 133FSB? Apparently the Asus P2B uses 1/4 divider for it's PCI bus if you select the undocumented 133 FSB. With that taken care of I just have to worry about hosing my new card if I run a 100 AGP bus.

    thanks

          runs fine on 103Mhz AGP-Bus with 2x
          and 112Mhz AGP-Bus with 1x

            No problem at all!

            I use Asus P3B-F and running my P3-450 at 630MHz (FSB 140MHz). And the G400 still runs perfectly. Some advice: don't force the card using AGP2X.

                Hi, I have a P2B and I'm very interested on the undocumented 133 FSB feature.
                I've the P2B version that doesn't have the AGP multiplier jumper (1/1 - 2/3).
                I think shoul be that board, if settled to 133fsb, can divide automatically to 1/4.

                It's true? Can you tell me some HTTP links to these "secret documens"or to pages describing the thing?

                Before, I was thinking BX chipset can't use 1/2 / 1/4 multiplyer.....

                Bye

                  The jumpers for a 133FSB should be set
                  [2-3][1-2][1-2] That should give you a automatic 1/4 divider for a 33 PCI bus. The AGP may still be overclocked, so your card may or may not be stable. Here's the link to the article
                  http://www.anandtech.com/html/articl...fm?document=34

                  best of luck

                    i've had the p2-b i think the same model of yours, working at 133fsb with no problem..at 2x...now that i have a p3b-f i cannot do 133 fsb and 2xagp..i don't know why...
                    could it be that the quality of the components in the p2-b are better?...because i have the same hardware
