    Hey guys, I just installed the video drivers 177.83 from lv2g. Apparently, I can not overclock my GPU anymore. I tried using both NTunes and Riva Tuner, and the second I hit apply after settings the clocks, it goes back to factory speeds even before i close the window?

    I used to be able to overclock with the lame stock 154 drivers. I can't seem to figure out the problem...

    Thanks,
