I have a Abit Bx6 r2 with a PIII 750, took a bios flash.

question is it AGP 1x or 2x, I want to upgrade my video card to a AIW Radeon 7500 which is AGP 2x?

Is the motherboard stable after the reflesh the BIOS? I heard that the motherboard with 4 dimm install is not stable with newer BIOS. I also have BX6 Rev 2 that I am thinking about upgrading.

It should work with all the Pentium III up to 1 GHZ

PIII up to 1GHz. Including the PIII 700 overclocked to 933, a great value.

Just remember that using the 133MHz FSB setting will require PC133 memory and a new enough video card to handle the 89MHz AGP bus.
