EVGA 8800GTS 320mb..Different 2D and 3D OC settings?? Not Working..

Hi,

I just got my EVGA 8800GTS 320mb video card a few days ago. I'm having problems setting the 2D and 3D overclock settings independently. They are always linked. I am using Xtreme-G 171 drivers. I tried the latest 169 Nvidia drivers and the Xtreme-G 174 drivers. None of them solved my problems.

Atitool also has a problem detecting the low 3D power setting.

Anyone know a fix?

1. In the newer (167.xx, 169.xx, 171.xx, 174.xx) NV drivers the 2D/3D detection is broken, it tells not the difference between them.

2. If I remember right, the G80, G92 (and newer) graphic cores don't have separate 2D/3D speeds.

3. If you wanna complicate things, then you can set separate speeds with RivaTuner using thresholds.

offtopic: use the XG174.70 for performance and the XG174.74 for better image quality.

Bah, well that sucks. Guess the card shouldn't get really hot anyways in 2d since it's not doing anything so it shouldn't hurt that much.

Thanks for the info!
