AGP bus max speed with Voodoo5 5500??

[moocat]

I was going to go for a 143mhz fsb to see if I could get to 1 gig. I know the cpu will do it no problem (pretested) and I'm fairly secure with the ram if I drop it to cas3. I'm just not sure what kind of luck people have been having with the V5 at 95mhz?? So...what's the word?? Oh yea, this is a BX board (Abit BF6).

My GF2 GTS can do it (I Think) I can run at 980 for a while in Q3 but i'm not sure if it's the CPU or the video that eventually locks out.. So, not too sure if i can help ya but i thought i'd say that i'm having decent luck with my GF2 at those speeds, at 933(89 BUS) it works fine for sure.. hopefully that helps...

don't know the others but my voodoo5 won't go past 89Mhz agp (133Mhz fsb) , before taking a voodoo5 i was running my 600e at 142Mhz fsb with a radeon :| , now i changed for the voodoo5 and lost 52Mhz but hey set this lod to -2 and you get a too good image quality 😀

My Voodoo 5 runs fine at 78.5MHz AGP. I haven't tried it out on any of my BX boards yet, but I'm sure my CPU will get nowhere near the speed I'm running at now if I were to use a BX and a Voodoo 5.

I've used 89MHz AGP on my V5 easily. I actually saw the BIOS post when I accidentaly set it to 100MHz once, but I shut it off as soon as I realized what I did so I don't know if it is stable at that speed.

I gave it a shot...no go. Posted then the screen went black. Had to power cycle my 'puter a couple times even after I set my fsb speed back to 133 just to get to windows...then I had to reinstall the latest driver/tools package. It was like the stuff had disappeared..maybe it reverted back to an old registry file and since I don't reboot that often it could have been pretty old. I don't know but 95mhz is out of the question with my V5. As expected I guess.
