How exactly do you tell if a motherboard has an option to lock the AGP/PCI bus? If you're ordering from a place like newegg, it doesn't say anything about it anywhere. Is that determined by the chipset? Is it safe to assume that all nForce2 motherboards will have this option?

Thanks
 
you basically have to know what boards do and don't. If you get from an "enthusiast" company like Abit or Asus, it's pretty certain, other than that it depends on the company. Which board were you thinking of buying?
 
I'm going to be building a budget rig for my girlfriend soon, I don't really have a specific motherboard in mind, just kind of checking out some of the options. I'm trying to find an uber cheap overclockable AMD motherboard.

Oh well, I'll just google each one to see if they are or aren't, I just thought maybe there was an easier way to find out. Thanks for your help :)
