NVIDIA Control Panel - Tune System

[imported_Neptune]

Now along with the new nvidia driver, a lot of options came with the control panel. Ive tried overclocking in the past with no success, and scary things did happen, but thats all over. Now what catches my eye is this tune system page. In this menu i have these options

Coarse tuning (approx 20 min)
Fine tuning (approx 3 hours)
Tune using custom settings

Is it recommended i do this? I wouldnt mind taking the time to do the fine tuning though. What exactly does this do????

I know I wouldn't trust it. Not until I knew it inside out, or more specifically, what the hell it actually did.


Can't really quote me on this because I haven't the foggiest.

I haven't really even given it a try. Atitool + Old panel works fine.

Here's Coolbits reg-file. It enables the old panel and OC'ing.
