    Anyway, do you know another overclocker that also overclocks the shader? since ntune only OC's the core and mem clocks.
    I tried rivatuner, it wont even overclock it, it downclocks my card, and atitool wont work.

    The reason why it downclocks my card is because the maximum OC for rivatuner on my 8800m gtx is below my factory default settings.
    My default is 500 mhz core/ 1250 shader/ 800 mem, when rivatuner's maxes are
    575/1150/475
