    One last question... been using ATi for ages and they have the GUI to control various aspects like fan speed and such... is there nothing like this for NVidia? Nothing in my taskbar and the only thing listed in Start>Programs is 4 items about 3D Vision.

    I am not really wanting to OC because I figured why lessen the processors life for a small speed difference.
