When you double click it, it'll add itself to the registry if you click OK.

That's all you need to do to activate CoolBits.
 
Well, once you put in the registry information all you have is the ability to oc, it doesn't do it for you.

When you open the settings for your card (right click desktop->properties->settings->advanced) there should now be a panel with clock frequencies on it. They should show stock at first. You can click the manual overclocking circle and it will allow you to use the slider to adjust the clock and memory settings. Remember that there is a 2D mode and a 3D mode, and you normally do not change the 2D settings (unless underclocking to decrease heat or noise when not gaming). You can use the button that will auto-detect the best stable oc speeds or you can try to find your own. You have to test the new speeds each time before it will let you apply them. Also make sure to check the "apply settings on restart" so the settings remain oc'ed.

Great choice on the card and good luck!
