Lower the AGP to compensate for the CPU overclock?? what? i've never heard of this..and how would the agp bus have nething to do with the cpu's bus?

the agp and pci clock are derived from the fsb, if u overclock i think the settings can get screwed up so u might have to change the multiplier (the agp/pci - fsb multiplier). If u dont then pci and agp devices can act weirdly
the motherboard detects default fsb for your cpu (if its a new one) as well as the other components and places them in a ratio.
for example cpu agp pci
1 : 2 : 1
when increasing the fsb, this ratio is maintained and therefore you increase the others and this can mess them up a little. Normally (depending how much you overclock) you can leave the ratio the same but if you overclock alot then you will need to change this ratio to bring the others down a little.
There is also another ratio between cpu and ram in the bios that you might wanna consider having a look at.
or at least this what i think.
