    good news! rivatuner 2.05 is out! it allows you to asynchronously adjust core and shader clocks too now.

    more news - for those using vista: dreamscene went live very recently as well.

    2.04 also allowed independent shader domain overclocking (on the drivers that supported it, at least).

    Most companies don't lock their GPUs. I don't think that even all Dells have the GPUs locked, just the E1705 and Precision M90 (and maybe the XPS M1710).
