When I pushed my Cel566 to 952(112x8.5), I'll encounter "corrupted graphics" while I playing some 3D games. But on my Abit BH6, no problem encountered if I using the same CPU speed, what's wrong?

have you set your agp frequency selector to 2/3? there may be a jumper on the board to do this if it's not done automatically.
if you haven't then your videocard will be on 1/1 with an AGP bus speed of 112MHz!

That's exactly what I'm thinkng now, but unfortunately I can't find any AGP frequency divider on the board, neither the manual too. Anyone?

No, it didn't have this feature inside the bios, and I can't find any jumper that's relative with the AGP speed adjustment. Anyone?

if everything else is the same, ram, hd, everything, except for the motherboards, you have your answer already

i have seen the same with many boards and the same cpu, my present 1.2 would run only 1420 stable on my IWILL ka266, but 1520 on this Epox 8k7a+, just as one current example. amd or intel, both exhibit the same types of behavior with different motherboards and all else equal.

Maybe that's the motherboard problem, but is there any way that I can adjust the AGP speed(2/3) instead? I don't think BX Master didn't have any option to modify the AGP speed, even my old BH6 had the AGP speed adjust option. Any BX Master or ex-BX Master owner can provide some help here?
