Bios AGP Voltage
Hi...
At the moment I have my AGP set to 1.6v in the bios. Should this be 1.7 as I am running a Radeon 9800 128 Pro on my board or is 1.6v fine.
Mike
Yup more voltage just means more heat you only need 1.7v when overclocking to hell

Hi
I have query regarding the voltage that my GeForce FX5200 AGP card should be set to in the BIOS.
The 'spec' for the 875P AGP 3.0 slot states:
"AGP slot supports 8x/4x at 0.8v (AGP 3.0) or 4x at 1.5v (3.3v is not supported)"
Now according to CPU-Z, my FX5200 is running at 8x and my voltage setting is 1.65v, but shouldn't it be set to 0.8v for 8x?
(Come to think of it, I don't think the AGP voltage goes as low as 0.8v because I bleive the minimum voltage is 1.55)?
Maybe I'm not reading this correctly but I don't want to damage my board or AGP card, so I'd rather check it out with you guys.
Regards
Brave01HeartNo 1.55 is Fine ...As that is what MSI chose to use as the AGP Default......Some people run it at 1.6, But as most people don't realize that these newer generation Vid Cards get 90% of thier operating power from the +12V line (of the 4 pin Molex connector)....And even if you dont have a four pin molex, the only thing that you are doing is heating up your MCH (north bridge) with the the extra juice if you run it more then 1.5 Volts .....Sean REILLY875

MSI FX5200-T128[8917]Has 5200Ultra Chip Will it need AGP Voltage rise
Hi,
Some where in this forum i saw that someone is talking about after removing the heatsink of 5200 and seeing it is 5200 Ultra ...It happened to me too...
My GPU is ought to be 5200 but under the heatsink it is 5200 Ultra
soo i need help about that how can i found vga bios for to turn its bios to 5200 Ultra's
My xp drivers saying it is 5200, after i updated bios will it be turn to 5200 Ultra...?? it must be but is there any compability issues known by anyone ??
And it is 5200 Ultra why it doesn't needs external power input[From PSU] like other Ultras have ?
If i rise the AGP voltage will it be helpful to use all power of 5200Ultra ?
thanx for your time ...
Sorry for my englishSince this issue is regarding a VGA card I'm moving your thread to the VGA Forum...

hi,
i have a asus radeon 9800xt/tvd and every now and then i get weird thick dark bands running vertically at window xp pro desktop...also has narrower horizonntal banding as well. I reboot and it generally works after that properly. However, the other day it initialised the GART driver just before desktop loading and suddenly rebooted...then did it again. I went to bios and increased agp voltage from default 1.65v to 1.7v and it worked. Hssn't done anything wrong since. Was i right in assuming that was the problem and can i damage the card by doing so? Has this happened to anyone else? If so, how did you solve it and what was the cause?
Aspro
p.s. using latest catalyst drivers.
p.p.s. does anyone use the asus enhanced driver for their 9800xt/tvd instead of catalyst? if so why?I have read about some people using 1.7v to solve certain problems although this was earlier 9600 cards I believe. I'm pretty sure you can't damge anything with that setting so if it works keep it. It is odd though that increasing voltage would solve this since the card gets most of its power from the extra cable you connected.

K8N FSR AGP voltage too high w 6800GT?
Hi guys !
I've been having trouble oc:ing my 6800GT and one guy told me that the problem is related to my AGP voltage. It's too high thus preventing the GT from running normally at higher speeds.
The symptoms of oc:ing are 1-3 sec freezings in 3DMark05/03/01 plus crashes "expolrer.exe & drwtsn32.exe". It's not a heat-related problem because I have a NV Silencer 5 mounted on the core which also covers all mem chips. My temp indicator shows me 45-50C idle 60-65C full-load.
I've heard that the GT requires 1.3V AGP voltage. Unfortunately you cannot lower AGP voltage in BIOS.
Any suggestions ??i have almost teh same setup. when i first got my 6800 i had same issueso/c and i watercool.
it wasnt until i swapped my 430true power to wifes 350 enermax that it was straightened out. ex has like 32a on 12v line
cpu used to use the 5v line but now almost your whole system rides the 12v line all peripheral cpu and your gt juce sucker. so those old powersupplies cant keep up with big systems like ours
also with a64 some games you need to turn cool and quiet off during because the way the code is written it doesnt keep cpu at 100% so the cpu keeps throttling down and up. i just shortcut in my toolbar for the power control from control panel. it works nicely
agp 1.5v. 6800gt core voltage is 1.3 ultra is 1.4.
those numbers are not really related. your friend may be connecting numbers which are not related. dont forget 6800 has its whole own mobo essentially with a core and ram and other chips sitting on it. thats what the agp 1.5v goes to.
hope this helps -

I just tried to upgrade my video card and the new card wouldn't work.
The computer store said I may need to increase my AGP voltage.
The card I'm running now is a nVidia 5900GT and I tried a nVidia 6200. The 6200 wouldn't work..
Can anybody explain what I need to do? I'm comfortable with BIOS changes.
Thanks,
BillI'm just trying to get VISTA ready. That's why I'm looking at a new video card. Here's my system.

MSI 645 Ultra-C AGP voltage?
Would like to know what is the AGP voltage of the motherboard mentioned above, can't find it anywhere in the MSI site.
Asking because I'm using that mobo, and my newly bought ATI radeon 9600xt just won't work on it. When I say it won't work, I mean it crashes at any attempt to do 3d rendering(including direct3d test at dxdiag). My older card GF2MX worked pretty well.
Someone suggested that "cause new graphic cards are using 1.5V......... Old 4X AGP are only compatible with 3V graphic card. " How true is that? Could that be precisely just why my new graphic card won't work on my mobo? The board I mentioned above only support 4xagp true enough, but I'm not sure of the voltage. Does anyone know? The manual does not specify it.
Yeap, I installed and updated to the latest drivers.
Thank you!My mobo can support 4x/8x AGP but I did use older AGP cards on it so no worries. I used to have an SIS 645D SA7 mobo from Abit that runs 2x/4x AGP Gart but also supports 4x/8x AGP cards as well as 1x/2x & 2x/4x AGP cards since 4x are found in all current AGP cards and on almost the new AGP cards, the RAMDACs are running on 1.5v(including the older GF4 series) so it's definately supported.
Just follow my suggestions on increasing your AGP Voltage for your ATI card in BIOS and use Omega drivers for ATI based AGP card. It won't harm your ATI card at all .
Lastly,I recommend that you do a clean un-installation of your old nVidia drivers or any older versions of AGP drivers before installing the new drivers. You may also be required to update your AGP Accelerator Gart driver for SIS based mobo, check the mobo's driver page for the latest version . -
AGP Voltage on an i875P NEO board & APG8X vid card???
I found this statement on intel's website:
"What add-in AGP cards can be used?
The D875PBZ AGP socket is keyed for Universal 0.8 AGP cards that comply with the AGP 3.0 specification or 1.5 V AGP cards that comply with the AGP 2.0 specification.
The AGP connector supports 8x, 4x AGP 3.0 add-in cards operating at 0.8V, or 4x,1x AGP 2.0 add-in cards operating at 1.5V.
Note: There is no support for AGP 2x operation or legacy 3.3V AGP cards."
Even though this statement is geared towards an intel motherboard, it looks like to me that if you have an AGP8X graphics card, then you better set the AGP voltage in the BIOS to 0.8V
By default, the NEO board is set to 1.5V
Any thoughts?leave bios alone and it will sort it out

Agp voltage --- 1.6v ???
guys,
i have an msi nx6800gt and my mobo is msi k8n neo2 platinum.
do you think i should try using 1.6v agp voltage?
i'm currently using default 1.5v but i was just wondering if using
1.6v would help me o/c a bit more.
at the moment the card doesn't o/c well at all.
would it be safe to use 1.6v?
thanxYes, 1.6v is safe, but it may not help you OC much higher. If the card won't OC very well it's either to hot or your PSU is to weak on the 12v rail...Or you just got a card that doesn't OC well, that can happen too...Good Luck.

AGP voltage of gpu MS8808 ver:1A TNT2 Model64 32Mb??
I need to know the AGP voltage of gpu MS8808 ver:1A TNT2 Model64 32Mb
because I am getting a new Motherboard and it seems it just admit 1.5 volts AGP Voltage.
Thanksjuanpa74,
That is a 4x Vid Card. All 4x and 8x vid cards work with 8x mobos. All 4x and 8x mobos work with all 8X vid cards.
Here is an 8x Vid Card:
Take Care,
Richard
P.S. If the card does not fit the AGP Slot on the mobo, the voltage is wrong. (The only time this is not true is with some old Vodoo Cards that were put on the wrong PCBs.) -
What is considered safe for agp voltage? It is the one setting that I have not tried messing with because I am afraid of hurting/killing my card. I am using an MSI 5900 Ultra by the way. Thanks
Keep it as close to the "Default"(1.5 v) voltage as possible....As the newer cards as your is Gets the majority of its power from the "Molex" connector.......Sean REILLY875

PT 880 & Radeon 9800 pro - heavy AGP Voltage
Hello!
I'm worrying for my AGP voltage witch is 1,75 V (in red in core Center).
I cannot change it in Core Center though (OK- and save) because after
reboot it goes back to 1,75 V. My two friends who got similar computers
have the same problem. The difference is that I've Sapphire's and they
have Club 3D's graphic cards.
What to do - any ideas?
Regards
LarsHello!
After spending some hours reading around in this forum I've realized
that Core Center isn't that good. I'll certainly remove it. I've had some
problems with hang-ups on my computer but my friends haven't experience
this yet. I thought it was due to old drivers but realized it probably caused by
Core Center. Thank god for this forum and all you guys with answers.

Hi,
I have a G4MX440 AGP Video card and have brought a new motherboard and CPU combination. The motherboard (ASUS P4S800 / Intel P4 3.0G) warns that the AGP slot is 1.5 volts only.
Can anyone tell me the AGP voltage of the G4MX440 AGP Video card or where to find it. I still have the documentation for both the Video card and previous motherboard but neither mention this detail.
Thanks,
Regards,
Pauly.......most AGP cards are 1.5V so you are ok
