Nvidia 2D Quality and Color Temperature settings

Just did a side-grade to a GTX 460 HAWK from MSI from my 5850 Xtreme (will give one to my bro, not sure which), haven't used Nvidia in a while and had a few questions:

1. Does coolbits still work?

2. Does the Nvidia CP have a color temperature setting like ATI's - where you set whatever temp you want for any connected display like 6500k, 6600k...etc.?

3. Is the 2D on Nvidia inferior? I was using display port on the 5850 with my ZR24W and DVI on the GTX 460 and think I see a difference.

Main problem with the 5850 was 2d flicker on OC. The GTX 460 is running at 900/4250 to nearly match a stock 560 Ti's performance.
 
Solved it, the 2D on ATI using display port was better,noticeably less banding. Also, upped the GPU voltage via bios mod and made mem clocks statics for all modes.

End result: 5850 @ 850/1050 and 3DMark extreme score of 1320 at 1920x1200 extreme preset vs 1121 for the 460 @ 900/4400

Keeping the 5850, bro loves NV anyways so it's a win-win :)
