for my EVGA 8800GTS, is there really any difference in the OC software? I have used both of them but riva has crashed a few times on me in games or when OC'n where the Nvtune didnt at the same speeds. I know a lot of people use Riva, but im just not sure why, maybe I am not clear on some ofthe featuers, anybody care to elighten me?
 
Rivatuner. Never crashed for me or many others, might want to reinstall it.

NTune is crap. Very buggy and crashes a lot.

Note, depending on your version of rivatuner and drivers, your shader clock might be unlocked which might be causing your difference in OCs.
 
i guess it wouldtn be a big deal to install them both but only have one run from startup at at time.
 
I just like to check my temp from time to time and see how hot my gpu is after gaming and i find both ntune and riva give the same temp as one another.

But i like ntune, anyways i dont oc, i really dont see the point? If your into gaming then why do you want to strain your cpu, vid card for maybe a few frames? Well thats my opinion but i guess others would concur.

Ntune has never been buggy for me as well :D

i take the hardware approch not much into oc'ing like for my parts to hang around.i hear that rivatuner is the best
 
rivatuner is the best

ntune is a peice of crap, but it does have the potential to be really good if they would write a decent peice of software.
 
All I'm interested is in a program to let me know my GPU temps. I wish this was built into the video drivers. I've got my CPU temp.'s showing on an external device. What is the best, least intrusive (will not mess with other settings) way to monitor my GPU temps. Thanks.
