anyone who has this mobo can you tell me if upping the AGP voltage in the BIOS helps in getting a vid card to OC higher?
Ive got my NF7-S from newegg (just hoping for a rev 2) coming in this week and id like to know :)
 
No, it doesn't help. It just adds voltage to the AGP slot, which doesn't transfer to the card. You can try it, but it won't do anything.

does newegg still have anything other than rev 2?
I bought my nf-7s from them in august and got rev 2 no problem
 
no the incressing AGP votlage dosnt help overclocking...it dose help you run your AGP at anythign higher than 66Mhz...

iv been running mine 1.7v @ 80MHZ Agp, im not sure if it helps but iv been doing it for sometime now.

ive found that running your AGP speed outta spec (higher than stock..not lower) has actually allowed me to net some higher FPS ratings and what not...so Ill try it later :p
as for now I'm waiting on my Swifty NB cooler,AXP 3000+ (400mhz) and my XMS 4000 pro :p (yeah yeah..I had the cash so shhh)

If you order an NF7-S from Newegg you will get a Rev2, don't worry.

volt mods the only way to go. check the video cards forum, there's a few links to some guides :)

Vassassin, I think you can find a good set of balls on E-bay for pretty cheap, those might help you volt mod it...

that sounds good and all but being E-Bay id probably get some used balls...which wouldnt help much :p
im debating on weather or not I should mod the alpha pal 6035 from my GF4 TI4200 8x to fit my BFG 5900nu however...I dont know what to use for ram sinks :(
that alpha should handle the load from the BFG with little problem
