Only, if you have crashes when trying 3D apps which magically go away when you use the nopentium stuff it is likely you are affected. As far as I know the problem started in with the 750 Mhz series, but I could be completly wrong.

The problem (IIRC) is that memory allocated for AGP is also alocated for other stuff. This causes memory to be corrupted. If you are not using an AGP driver, nothing gets doubly allocated and there is no problem. As I understand it now, kernel developers are trying to find out a different way to see if the memory is mapped already, this would fix the issue in a good way.
