Gigabyte K8N-S & K8NS-Pro -> where's the AGP/PCI Lock ?

[ wasnt sure if this should be posted in the M/B or CPU O/C forum ]

Hello

I just downloaded the manuals for both these boards.

Accoding to the manuals it *appears* that you can set the AGP to anywhere from 66 <-> 100 independant of the cpu FSB selected, but I can find no refernece or graphic of any sort of PCI lock !?!

Am I right in saying that these board do *not* have a PCI lock ?

That would be correct.

Hmmm............. ok........ this is confusing ...

According to Hexus.net here:-

The pre-production of this board *does* have a PCI and AGP lock. The AGP lock is manually settable but -apparently- the PCI lock is simply engaged at all times by default ?!

Can any owners / users confirm one way or the other ?

Dang, that's an nForce3 board! Yes, it has both PCI and AGP locks.
