I'm overclocking a P3-700E on an Abit BX6 rev2 mobo. I currently have a TNT2 ULTRA and it doesn't like it when i have it at 933 with a 2/3 agp. I was either thinking of getting a new mobo, or a new video card. Do you think if I got a Geforce 2 GTS 32MB DDR, it could handle it? I remember somewhere that the Geforces and Radeons handled the higher agp speeds pretty well. Is one brand better than the other (ELSA, Leadtek, ASUS, etc)? Or should I wait until NV20?

Thanks

strange, what happen if you didn't set the agp to 2/3 ? Your TNT2 doesn't like it huh, heheh. But then again a 230Mhz increament is considered alot. Don't get new graphic card or MOBO, yours are good, don't squeeze too much power out of it.

me same mobo with you wiht P3-450@600 and TNT2 M64 same setting, 2/3 but 147mhz mem freq.
New driver like detonator3 which is the win-6.13?

If you are sure that the TNT2 is your problem, then yes a new video card may be in order. I can vouch for the GTS cards handling 89Mhz. I wouldn't change motherboards or wait for newer video cards.
BTW: I have run TNT2's at 89 before. You may want to verfiy that is indeed your problem.
