Will rivatuner work?

Does ATiTool work?

nVidia have locked out Coolbits in the 8-series cards. To overclock using nVidia software you have to download nTune from here. It supplements the current control panel, adding a new overclocking and basic benchmarking suite.

Ive downloaded this and it dont have ANYTHING in the sort of overclocking! Nothing at all!

MaTtsPc, nTune does have overclocking options, plenty of them...

However, ATi Tool is a better overclocking app, even for nVidia cards. Not sure if it supports the 8 series, but if it does you'll be well away.

Go to Start > nVidia Corporation > nVidia Control Panel. I think you can probably work it out from there.

Dex is correct however, ATi Tool is the better option. On their website though, it states that the latest version (0.26) is not compatible with Radeon X1950 cards. Since the nVidia 8800 series is an entirely new architecture, and they only just started supporting the nVidia 7xxx series, I'm not banking on ATi Tool making friends with your 8800, but try it and see.

Reflux, I don't know where you found that list of supported cards, but the ATi Tool page clearly says:

Quote: Full support for all ATI and NVIDIA cards. Only X1950 Pro overclocking is not supported.

That was with version 0.26 released on the 8th of December 2006. Were the 8 series Geforces out then?

Using what dude?! Be a little more specific when asking questions.... it really does help.
