Asus P4B266-C Problems

I recently built a P4 1.6A system using this board and am very happy so far. Except that I recently purchased a VisionTek GeForce4 Ti 4600 and could only get it to work after installing and removing a Geforce 3 based card, and if I changed the clock settings the card was not recognized. This sucks has anyone else had such problems.
 
Actually, nobody really knows for sure what the settings do. Several people have sent emails to Asus asking about it, but they do not reply. Only 1 person has ever said they tested it and that guy had 8 posts under him.
 
I can't remember what site it was on, [ H ]ard maybe, but someone used an Oscilloscope to measure PCI frequency running Turbo1 , and it was said to run at 36Mhz, so AGP was at 72Mhz. 72MHZ is out of spec, but should be fine for 95% of video cards. Turbo2 has been said to run PCI/AGP slightly higher than Turbo1, but I've never seen any real numbers. The Normal setting just scales the PCI/AGP speeds along side the FSB speed, and if you run a FSB of 140-160, AGP would probably be pretty high.

That person's name was "ase" or "ace" and he had 8 posts total ever under his name. Would you take 1 person's word for it that had 8 posts?
 
I traded the visiontek card for a pny ti 4400 and it works great even at 145mhz fsb. So maybe the ti4600 I bought was bad only time will tell
