Looking for program that will show me my AGP clock speed...

[jonnyGURU]

I could have sworn that CPUID did this, but I guess not.

The problem is that an Iwill XP333R gets slower scores in more video intensive benchmarks at 166 MHz FSB as opposed to 133 MHz FSB (the higher the res, the worse the score).

Iwill informs me that at 133 MHz FSB the board has a 1/2 AGP divider and at 166 MHz it has a 2/5 divider. This would mean that the AGP bus should be 66 MHz at either system bus speed, which would not explain my "problem" but could at least eliminate the AGP bus speed as a reason for the low scores.

Before anyone suggests this; I already know about the problem with the Iwill XP333R running a CPU FSB of 266 with the RAM running at 333 asynchronously. I am NOT running the bus speeds asynchronously so this is not the problem.

I just want a piece of software that I can download that will say, "yes Jon... Your AGP bus is 66 MHz".

Thanks guys (and gals)!

would sisoft sandra show the true AGP speed? thats my only thing i can think of at the moment

dxdiag?
powerstrip?

All three of those programs will give me video card stats, but not the actual AGP bus speed.

Thsnks, though. Keep trying. I know I am.

I sware, if I find it, I'll bookmark it for LIFE!

my sisoft sandra shows my AGP bus speed at 70 mhz. i am at 139 bus. this is on my epox 8k7a board

What os/windows are you running, leadtek and others have programs for me and 98 that allow you to see/adjust the speeds within windows.

Sisioft Sandra has the option i believe, go to vid properties and check all the info that it shows, there is info for monitor & vid adapter... i believe it also shows in the mainboard info module...

Hmm.... I'll check Sandra again. Could it be that I'm using the "free" version of Sandra? I looked there under Video and found a lot of information, but don't recall seeing the AGP clock speed.

try mainboard information

Woohoo!!!

That's what I need!

Thanks!!!!!

SiSoft Sandra has it, but quite often it tends to be inaccurate.
The only other proggy that offers it that I'm aware of is Gainward's ExpertTool.. but you'd need a Gainward graphics card to utilize it.

I also found out that Sandra only shows this if the board supports it.

I got it to work on my Biostar M7MIA... It came right up and said "AGP bus 66MHz". Ran it on the Iwill XP333R and got NOTHING!
