Overclocking with the NVIDIA 3.53 Drivers

Planet Riva updated their site with information on how to get overclocking controls with the new drivers. Here's the full story:
If you want to overclock your core or memory settings on your TNT/TNT2's with the new 3.53 drivers. Open up your registry editor to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE / SOFTWARE / NVidia Corporation / Global / NVTweak and add a new DWORD called CoolBits and give it a value of 3. After that, in your display properties (Settings/Advanced/RIVA TNT/Additional) you will have a new tab called "Hardware Options" which will allow you to adjust them.
PLEASE NOTE: Overclocking is risky business and can cause your card to overheat and/or be destroyed. The Haus cannot be held responsible for damage done to your hardware, pain and suffering, pattern baldness, insanity, or spontaneous decapitation which may come as a result of trying these tweaks.

Am I trying them? You betcha!
