9/24 What does it mean when you run a card (e.g. a video card) at
4x or 8x? Thanks.
\_ It means that the strobe signals used for clocking AD and
SBA data switch 4 or 8 times per reference clock which
runs at 66MHz for AGP. Actually, I'm over-simplifying here.
In AGP 4x and 8x, the strobe signals are paired (sometimes
differential) so those signals only switch at 2x or 4x
of the reference clock. |
