I've assembled a PC several months ago with basically the following specs:

MSI 845E - Max Motherboard
Pentium IV 2.8 GHz Processor @ 533 MHz FSB
1 GB PC2700 DDR Memory
Asylum NVIDIA GeForce FX 5200 Video Card w 128 MB DDR Memory
W.D. 80 GB ATA 100 Hard Drive

The CPU seems extremely good and stable overclocked at 10%, without any discernible heat problems. I realize that over the long haul I may be affecting (shortening) the life of the processor, however, my question is am I also affecting (shortening) the life of the video card?

Thanks for your input.

Sandor

If your agp frequency is locked on 66 MHz then raising the fsb does not affect the gpu.

alfapi,

How can I determine if the AGP frequency is locked at 66 MHz?

Thanks,
Sandor
