Ok first i have an intel D875PBZ mobo and i know its a crappy overclocker, so far i have o/c'd my 2.8c to 2.9 ( i know i can do better with a better mobo), and changed my memory timings, but now i wanna get some more FPS while playing my nascar game by o/cing my video card. I have an 128mb sapphire radeon 9600 ( video card info. Now heres the problem, in my d875pbz bios i go into burn-in mode and for some reason it wont let me configure my AGP/PCI settings. I have used burn-in mode to o/c my processor but when i try to scroll down to the agp settings it wont let me, its in gray lettering. So how can i get over this glitch if at all possible?
thanks
 
You don't OC via BIOS for a video card. You would want to look for OS-based overclocking tools. Leave your AGP locked, it tends to freak out if you mess around with it too much.
 
Yes, your radeon's clock frequencies are not in your mobo's bios. You will need some program/registry hack to be able to change these. I believe Powerstrip and Rivatuner are a couple of choices for the ati cards.
