This is not particulary true. There are no particular stability concerns
with either feature in modern systems, they can both be happily enabled for
a slight speed boost as long as the graphics card isn't a GF3, coz in that
GPU sideband support is buggy and will crash the system within minutes of
starting a 3D program. Then again, GF3s aren't really modern anymore either.


If there are no stability issues in modern systems them why has it
been disabled by default?
