Damn this mobo really supports awesome FSB overclocking without any AGP tearing! Check this...

An old ATI Radeon VIVO 64MB DDR... I know, I know... but I like having composite in/out... I'd love to get a 9700pro though.

My friend's cousin works for ATI and was a team leader on the rage chips... too bad this contact doesn't help me get a deal.

The 8k5a3+ also gave me no agp tearing w/ my 4200 @ 215mhz fsb ;) Gotta love that.

Hmmm.... i think that bandwith is a little low for 211 fsb, what timing are u use m8 ?

Here's my KX7-333 bandwith at 211 fsb, fast, cl2, 2-5-2, enhance, 4way, 2T :

I have to use the slowest settings... cas2.5, it would be cool to try some highspeed quality ram.

You've juiced the ram w/ 3.2v and still you can't do cas2? If so that stinks man! :(

2.9v but I didn't have time to try cas2

I struggled to get any of my Epox boards to score higher than 3000 on Sisoft Membenches... even at 2-2-5-2-1T... Only way I could do it was aggressive cas at 215 FSB, with full 3.2v. As with others... 217 resulted in tearing.
