I wanted to try this, together with my new ATI FireGL X1 256 AGP Pro GPU, but even before the BIOS, the card only produced weird moving artifacts. Looked like a clear sign of defective GPU to me, so I told the seller, he sent me another one (and it IS another one, I have the first one still here) and it produces the exact same moving artifacts instead of proper video output, I recorded it for the video. So now I am wondering - the A7N8X-E Deluxe *does* have AGP Pro support, it even says so in the manual, so why does this happen with 2 different cards of the same model? I was sure it must be a hardware defect, since this happens before any software is loaded, but the exact same symptoms with 2 cards? Meanwhile, with a Geforce 6600 or Radeon 9600 Pro AGP 8X, it works just fine. Sorry if this is a bit off topic, but the AGP pro bit should be kind of a strong point of the board, with FireGL cards being Radeon 9700 or 9800 cards for a fraction of the cost and with twice the amount of RAM.

So basically I can not earn any points here?

I wanted to validate and submit my first OC result: https://valid.x86.fr/a933wf But when I tried to register an account at the CPUID CPU-Z Validator, it wouldn't send me a verification mail. No error message, but the mail never came, ofc I checked spam folder etc. too. I waited some hours, still nothing, then tried two other mail providers (GMX, Web.de, gmail) Now a whole day later, still no mail to be found. This is bad, I was so proud of my very first good OC result and wanted to participate here. Does anyone have an idea what the reason for this is, or even how to get my result linked to my account anyway?
