Well, since BX133 became a real viable options for many users (allowed by both better PC133 memory and improvements to PIII CPUs (via the new stepping)), I decided to conduct a public poll that would help users of this board, who are either considering BX133 or running BX133, but are thinking about a possible video card upgrade with their selection(s). So with that in mind please post your success or failure result in the following format:
----------------------------------
SUCCESS/FAILURE
Video Card (Chipset)
Comments: (i.e. if it wasn't stable from the getgo what did You have to do to get it stable)
----------------------------------
Please, if the system failed to dance at 89Mhz (133FSB), but You are not 100% sure that it was the video card's fault DO NOT POST IT HERE. If I get more than 10 responses to this thread I will try to tally up the results by maker and chipset in the original post.
I'll start...
----------------------------------
SUCCESS
Hercules 3D Prophet DDR (NV10 DDR)
Stable from day one at 89Mhz AGP (max stable tested and passed - 92Mhz). Tested on SOYO 6BA+IV and MSI BX Master.
----------------------------------
SUCCESS
3dfx Voodoo3 2000 (V3)
Stable from day one at 89Mhz AGP (did not test any higher). Tested on SOYO 6BA +IV.
----------------------------------
Soon will test CLA2 on BX Master, when it gets here from Anaheim
