I have an epox 8k5a2+ and an xp1600, the xp 1600 used to be in an abit at7 but I wanted onboard raid so I got the epox, i know the chip will yield 200+ fsb on air cooling and not go above 48c load, but my epox board only has a 5:2:1 fsb ratio. I just spent $400+ on a radeon 9700, and I want to oc the f*ck out of this chip, but when I go for 200 fsb my agp clock is 80 and my pci is 40. I dont know too much about ocing the agp and pci bus so im not sure what this will do to my vid card, onboard lan, and sound, as well as my mobo itself. Can someone let me know whether it would be stupid to push for 200fsb, or might epox release a bios with a 6:2:1 ratio (if thats even possible). Thank you anyone for any ideas/suggestions.
