The 'Auto-detect' thing is rather interesting. Not only will it vary every time you run it, but it also seems to clock the card high enough to be unstable when running certain applications (it set the clocks on my FX5800Ultra to an insane 551/1100 !). I think you're better-off manually adjusting the clock speeds and verifying stability yourself...interesting utility...

yea, i prefer it over riva tuner, cause rivatuner seems to have preset places that i can set the core and ram. coolbits will let me set the clock frequency to whatever i want. the only problem with it is that it doesnt use low-level hardware oc'ing, like rivatuner, so every startup, my screen blacks out for a second, as it sets the clock rates up on my ti4200.
Do you have link to this program coolbits. Please post it if you do. So this really works good? I will have to try and download this and give it a try. TIA

go to www.guru3d.com, you should be able to find them under "downloads," then "video card utilities," then "overclocking" or something like that. not sure if there's an updated one tho, but that's what im using.
Doesn't matter it work with all driver revisions :)
Thanks a lot, just counting the hours untill I get off work. In about 3.5 hours I will be off then it's home to test.
Thanks Again I will try to download it later. You are right it's under:
>>downloads
>>Videocard uutilities
>>Overclocking and tweaking
Link to coolbits and other cool stuff from Guru of 3D (http://download.guru3d.com/)

Actually, thats incorrect- it 'usually' only works with NON-WHQL drivers...
