I love Coolbits too Droeblek...quick and easy!

They have a slightly different version of it called NV Tweek (Coolbits3D) if you want to play with some more advanced options, they aren't as complicated complicated like a lot of programs I have used (PowerStrip and RivaTuner for ATI)

Some are pretty obvious like Fan Control and Clock Speeds, if you don't know what it means, don't change it!
Get back with us first if you are unsure, some of the available tweeks don't realy affect performance enough to be worth messin with

Oh..and Mr.GTO, you might like a new Benchmark I found called AMD N-Bench 3.1, you can run individual "Quick" tests for fine tuning.

If that NV tweek works as well on your 5700 as the ATI tool does for me, you'll be happy!

You might give it a try for 1 reason...the Fan Control.

My X-800Pro throttles the fan speed, by running it at 100% all the time, I was able to drastically increase the max Overclock using the stock HSF
(With the ATI tool)
