    If your hardware don't support it, then it is probably no way around. Just set the motherboard to use 4X agp and live with that....

    It's not worth the hassle or money in investing in AGP8 IMO, it was a port that failed miserably, nothing amazing was achieved in it compared to AGP 4, best to wait for PCI expresss if ya think of upgrading.
    I use Microsoft Visual Basic 2005. (Therefore, most code samples I provide will be based around the .NET Framework v2.0, unless otherwise specified)

    Ideas man I was wondering what kind of games you play. Because judging from yar-x's video card he probably plays some extreme games. I will say that the jump from AGP 4X to 8X is tremendous. So in answer to your question:
    No there is no tweaking software that can make the performance on your hardware jump from 4X to 8X. But you can score an 8X mobo for about 67$. Maby like and Albatron, SOYO, MSI, or even gigabyte .
    I would definetly upgrade and you WILL see a difference.

    Yes-check your motherboard manual to see if it supports 1.5v/0.8v.
