underclocking in 2d mode?

[ritual]

Are there any issues with underclocking the core on my 8800gts while in 2d mode? I have mine oc'd to 600mhz while in 3d, but i'd like to keep everything as cool as possible while they aren't being used. would there be any decrease in 2d/windows performance or when watching video if i underclocked?

I dont think you will notice the difference, give it a go.

Rivatuner allows this. However, for somd odd reason my memory clocks stay at the OC'd speeds when in 2D mode. Core drops to the stock clocks, but not the memory.

2D/3D profiles wont change correctly.?

Unwinder,
Read NVIDIA 2D/3D overclocking basics. Memory clock is supposed to be the same for 2D/3D modes by design of most display adapters.

You can also use ATITool to do this.
