AGP voltage on Asus K8N ?
I put A64 3400(2.4 GHz) on the Asus K8N and also BFG Geforce 6800 GT.
During the gameplay it displays some vierd behavior: Game pauses for a while ( 10 -20 seconds) then resumes from that point. During the pause video is frozen and no sound and no response. This I experienced at Far Cry , Painkiller and Unreal Tournament 2004. All those games I played with previous CPU (Athlon XP 3000 on Asus A7N8X) with the same Videocard and did not have any problems. I wanted to speed it it up and now got a problem. I monitored temperature using Asus probe and Nvidia system utility. I also ran Prime 95 for 3 hours - no errors, temperature saturates at about 52 C. I found strange thing in the Nvidia system utility: AGP speed is reported at 53 MHz , not a 66 as it is set up in BIOS. Now questions : 1. Did anybody experience the kind of problem I have, and what may be a cause and fix? 2. Is it likely that the wrong AGP speed is the cause and how to fix? 3. Is there other way to check AGP speed ( I think may be this is Nvidia system utility bug?). 4. my PSU is Antec True power 430. Is it enough for the components I have? I would truly appreciate any answer. Ilya |
