What do you guys think? Is there any benefit or side affect of lowering the 2D core speed of my 7900GS? I'm just curious, as I just tried out my card at a 2D speed of 5mhz 
I saw no difference or anything in performance, and was wondering if I should just leave it real low.
Would it consume less power? Alot less?
Could my core wear in at this low speed, reducing it's OCing ability?
Would I see any noticable difference in 2D apps?
Have any of you ever tried this?
Again, I'm just curious For now I'll leave the core at it's normal 2D speed, but, I'd like some answers if anybody has them Thanks
Ohh, I was just trying my core at 50mhz, and it switched itself into 3D mode at the full 745mhz :O Maybe it actually senses when its speed isn't enough? I always thought transition to 3D mode was application triggered.
