I thought as much with the RAM. doh!
Looks like I'm not going to get this upgrade unless I can get a good deal somewhere.
I was under the impression that AGP 3 was backwards compatible with 1.x/2.x. Is this incorrect? My card uses the higher voltage which is what I was asking about. I knew I couldn't go and buy a 9800 pro or something and stick it in this board.
Looking around the internet, I see lots of people are running Generic RAM fine in these boards. The CPU is 133, the RAM is 166, so that should give me a bit of leyway.
Next question: Do all NForce2 boards have that constant PCI clock thing?
Have they fixed the issue with the boards just dying?
