Best BIOS settings for Soyo Motherboard & FX5900SP video card
I'm wondering if anyone has any suggestions for the best BIOS settings
(without overclocking) to best utilize the video card. I understand that I'm kinda limited by the AGP 4x limit, but still.... there has to be some settings that I should be using in the BIOS. The setup is: * Soyo KT333 Dragon Ultra Platinum * Athlon XP 2200+ * 512MB of RAM * MSI FX5900SP I assume that I should have AGP fast write enabled, but what else? What about the AGP & P2P Bridge Control screen? -- http://www.deepspacefranchise.net is now closed due to SPAM. |

SOYO boards are flaky... so seriously, dont mess with it. -- Remember when real men used Real computers!? When 512K of video RAM was a lot! Death to Palladium & WPA!! |

As far as that goes set most settings to performance defaults and enable/disable only what you need to make the box work. Dave |
