ATI 8x AGP

Post by oakfan52 »

How do i get my ATI 9200 pro to run at 8x AGP? I have 8x enabled in my BIOS on my MSI K7N2 w/ a barton 2500+. When i run sandra 2003 pro it says i'm only running at 4x.

I had the same problem with Sandra Pro when I built my latest box. Try a utility like PowerStrip and you'll probably see more accurate readings. Sandra is great for most things, but it seems to have some trouble with the 'ol bus.

I believe you will need latest Bios.
