AGP-2x, how to do it?

[Hermann Assbeck]

Hi,

i have changed the entry agpfallback to "1", but after the restart it goes back to "0", and the agp runs at 1x. ;-( I have tested this 4 times, the same result...

Any ideas?

Yea, I have an idea.

Leave it alone.

You have already stated that if you force 2x that the "system hangs".
This is the sign that your system is too noisy for 2x.

You could jump through the hoops of replacing RAM, Mobo, hard drives, etc. until it is quiet enough for 2x. Then you would see that there is no practical difference. Your benchmarks would remain the same, your games would run the same.

You are beating your head against a brick wall for no real gain. Accept that 1x is what you need to run at for your system to be stable, and that it does not really matter. You are not alone. A large number of people have to run at 1x. It simply doesn't matter.
