How can u increase the voltage of the AGP slot?

More about : agp voltage

There are motherboards that support that future, but I don't know which ones.
Why do you want to increase the voltage?
Remember that AGP 2X is 3.3V
and that AGP 4X is 1.5V

My case has so many fans that it hovers above the ground :eek:  .

i just bought a geforce2 gts V for my k62 500mhz w/Ga-5aa AGPset Mobo. Ive been reading that geforce cards wont run on Super 7 mobos because the agp slot doesnt provide enough power. i just wanted to know just in case.

If your mobo supports AGP 2X you will be OK, but if it only supports AGP 1X I don't think the videocard will work.

You can wire the 3.3v line from the ATX power plug to the 3.3v AGP slot power connection on the back of the board, this helps and could solve your problem.

What's the frequency, Kenneth?

in gigabyte's website it sez that my mobo's AGP slot supports 66/133mhz speed. thats 1x/2x right?

Yes, that's 1x/2x. The rest is a lie, what they call 133MHz is actually 66MHz using DDR technology, aka "AGP 2x".

For memory, PC2700=DDR333=166MHz. Intel claims a 400MHz system bus for the P4 CPU, but it's only 100MHz, using QDR!
The problem for tweekers is, starting out, they think they canget away with overclocking their AGP bus by dropping to 2x, and it still doesn't work. True clock really does matter, most AGP cards won't work much past 100MHz AGP clock. Many older cards can't even touch 89MHz.
