I just noticed today after playing around with the overclock of the video card that its not overclocking. I noticed that when using the nvidia control panel under the clock frequency settings when set to no overclock, it reads core 300 mhz, memory 1.00 ghz under performance 2d and 500 mhz core and 1.00 ghz memory, but for some reason, 3dmark 05 after it finishes reads that the core was only at 300 mhz. Does anyone know why it is doing that? Is my card still overclocking and if so how else can I check the clock speeds?

Once you return to the desktop (2D Mode) the clock speeds drop once again to 300/1000. Only when a 3D App is initialized does the clock speed and voltage bump up to full speed (>500/1000)
If you use Rivatuner for example it can log real time clock speed and temperature as well as voltage etc. Your overclocks should reveal themselves then.
 
Thanks for the reply. By the way, when are those stasis coolers coming out for sale. You had told me previously last week, but they are no show yet on the stasis website.
