wcpu id says my system supports it but its disabled, went to the nvidia drivers (after the hidden features patch) and its there in the agp options, but is grayed out and i cant select it, the question is, what is it and how do i enable it? in the bios?

Side band addressing (SBA) enables AGP to use 8 extra (Side band) address lines in addition to the 32 main ones to transmit requests for data, which should further improve AGP performance.

I don't think it really matters if you have it enabled or disabled. It's almost like FastWrites. If it enable - cool, if not - who cares.
