My OC settings Seem to Change.

Weird Issue with Coolbits2, when I set it to 400/1.1 and click apply it is fine and yet sometimes when I restart my computer I come back and either the Mem or the Core clock has changed. Today the mem went back too 1. And 3Dmarks never reports the correct speeds. Is there a Small program that could detect the true speeds? Is it really running at 1.1 but coolbits showing 1???

Maybe I should just do that bios mod volt mod and change the clock settings there? Then it would be permenant right?

ive noticed this too...yet it seems to be relatively fixed with the newer drivers (at least for me)

make sure you have it on 3d, and then change your clocks. if after you hit apply, you dont get the message about "hitting ctrl" to undo the changes at startup, then the settings will probably roll back to default. not really any help in fixing it, just a little thing i noticed.

I found that setting both the 2d and 3d memory speeds the same keeps those settings. I still keep my 2d at the stock speed, and only overclock the 3d speed.
