agp speed among other things...

The Articia-chip has 2 busses, one for PCI (3 slots) and one for
AGP/PCI-66. The Teron boards have an AGP and PCI slot connected
to the 2nd bus, and whenever you use that PCI slot the AGP is down
to 1x.

The Pegasos has only 3 PCI slots on the 1st and one AGP on the
2nd bus, making that problem non-existent.

Yeah I've heard that the A1 has a built in hardware fix for the AGP 1x/PCI thing.
Its called not using that PCI slot.  There - easy isn't it.

Any particular reason that you have a Skyline in your Sig?  Do you aspire to owning one or are you fortunate enough to have one?

It's true that the Teron board is somewhat of a clunky design. The 32bit 66 MHz pci slot is mostly useless seing there's not a lot of those cards around and if you can find one it's more expensive. AMR slot too. Basically useless unless you buy the card from ole-egil. No onboard sound on the 600 version is kinda lame too.

What Eyetech should do is buy chips from Mai then go to a company like ECS to design them a board. Seing that all boards these days are basically the same the price difference really shouldn't be that big. Or call Dave Haynie.

It looks as though you can overclock it at least. Can you do that with the pegasos?

Nice one.

Totally off topic, no mention of agp at all, but yet another attack on the Aone.

FFS alkemyst chill dude will ya. This was no attack just an observation of the facts. It's not like I'm saying it's crap or something. And if you'll look at this thread in 'threaded' view you'll see I was actually replying to someone.  :roll:

But it matters at what part your replying to.
 
The Aone has been mentioned with agpx2 comment wich is with in topic.
 
but i could then reply with, Aone what a total crap mobo & a waste of money.

well i was only replying to the fact that the Aone was mentioned.
 
Then ppl will start replying with > No the Aone aint crap. blah blah & then most likelly some will say that Pegasos is better.
And before you know it the whole thread becomes Aone is crap or Aone v
Pegasos.


I see it happen all the time.

Since both boards use the same nortbridge and theferore both have agp2x i'd say they're pretty much equal in that department...

Your reply just proves my  point


Because you replyed to my off topic AONE V Pegasos comment.
 
we are now talking about Aone V Pegasos wich im tired to death with & not about the topic in general
wich isabout the difference in agp speeds. not the difference between  the Aone & pegasos.

[Elektro]

Well then you're as guilty as me. As for diff. in AGP speeds it's very simple so theres nothing to talk about. If there is enough ram on the gfx card for the progg. ur running it couldnt matter less whether you have agp1x or 8x.

Im not as i was giveing an exmple of how things can go off topic.
 
But it seems you did not understand that.

[Elektro]

Well whatever...

Happy new year!

If I had the money I'd buy a R34 Skyline GT-R. But instead I think I'll change the pic

I've basically carried the sig over from my BBS running days

They don't tell you this, but DirectX automatically sets AGP speed to 2x for AMD processors because older athlon motherboards weren't stable with 4x.  You get the same results because your running at 2x no matter what.  Guess they still havn't bothered to fix it.

My old VIA KT133 based mobo can operate @ AGP 4X.


Just a side note; My ASUS nForce 2 based mobo can operate @ AGP 4X.


IF a feature doesn’t work, most X86 PC manufactures removes the said feature from their marketing materials. At later date they may issue a revise design with the said feature enabled.

Nvidia pfffff...
