about AGP voltage (Geforce4MX 440, EPOX 8k9a KT400)

[steadyeye 0]

M/B : EPOX 8k9a KT400

VGA : Geforce 4MX 440

Power : normal 300W

RAM : 256 * 2EA (PC2700)

OS : Win XP pro

 

Geforce4MX 440's default voltage is 1.5V and my M/B set it default 1.5v.

 

but Health check menu in BIOS shows that AGP is giving 1.6V

 

I heard that 4X AGP's voltage at Ge4MX440 is default 1.5v

 

1. is It normal that my M/B is giving 1.6V to AGP ?

2. I wonder my VGA card could endure 1.6V.

3. is it related to my computer freezing, when I boot pc or when I surfing Internet or when I prepare to install new OS

 

I am tired of shooting my computer freezing. ;(

I appreciate any your reply.

That card will run very safely at 1.6v, they don't run hot to begin with.

 

Have you flashed the mobo's BIOS to the latest version? Head over to the Epox website and see if there's a BIOS update, and see what that does for you.
