Petz, <Maybe some graphics company can make a killing by selling a high end graphics card that can handle a 50 MHz PCI bus!> There is no need to. On i440BX system the frequency of PCI bus is set independently by system clock chip. If you need the fastest office machine, many mainboards offer clocks with 4:1 ratio. Just forget the useless AGP, plug in an old Matrox Millenium card, crank the system frequency to 150MHz, and you will have the fastest Winstone and BAPCO scores, maybe in many other benchmarks as well...
