The P4 / AGP board-burnout problem is looking more serious for Intel: Mike Magee at the Inquirer has a link to this story: That may be connected with the fact that this issue doesn't mean anything to one who hasn't had a good look at our article and that - from a superficial point of view - only ancient, but no current graphic boards are considered to be concerned. Counteracting this we're listing, as detailed below, those graphic boards which are (or might be) concerned according to our present knowledge: some nVidia Riva TNT2 all nVidia Vanta, Vanta LT all SiS 6326 all S3 Savage4 below revision 3.0 all 3dfx Grafikkarten (officially non-AGP 4x anyhow) some nVidia GeForce2 GTS/Pro Sources: Heise Newsticker, x-bit Labs, 3DCenter Forum Especially the latter report is very interesting as it indicates that some graphic boards clearly sold as "AGP 4x" are definitely non-AGP 4x, scrapping themselves and the respective motherboard when plugged into an i845 or i850 board and moreover shouldn't be named "AGP 4x" at all as they don't master AGP 4x mode! hardtecs4u.com
