Bypassing/overriding the "Test Changes" when overclocking with CoolBits.

Is there anyway of bypassing/overriding the test changes when overclocking using coolbits? With an older set of Nvidia drivers I was able to push a FX5900 to 500 core and 998 memory and now with newer drivers I still get the same core but only get 950 on the memory. I want to be able to push the video card to its failing point, even when I set it to the max setting that it will allow I don't get any video corruption. Or should I just use some other program to overclock?

Try using powerstrip.

Okay I used powerstrip and here is what I found.

I allowed me to overclock it to what ever I liked and once I made the changes in powerstrip I checked the Nvidia's CoolBits settings and they had changed to what powerstrips settings are. Cool...

Then once I uninstalled powerstrip the overclock that was set to, stayed in coolbits.
