all the new (overclocking oriented) mobo's have it. sometimes it requires setting it to 67mhz agp to get it to work though.

yet to there's no option for locking the PCIe graphics bus.

Quote:

Problems begin to occur at 250FSB, however; this is primarily attributable to the absence of a PCIe lock. With the PCIe bus unlocked, at 260FSB the graphics card is running from a 120MHz bus speed. Prima facie these figures may appear benign, and while the new PCIe bus leaves Sideband Addressing by the wayside overclocking the graphic card this high can become problematic, eventually damaging the card.
