    If you guys have played, tried Counter Strike 1.6 , Source, Condition Zero...anything.

    You know that when you get a flashbang in your face it blanks the screen out completely.


    Well, this has bothered me a while but is not really an emergency of any sort. Just something i would like to know.

    I ran a nvidia clock graph to see how my clocks were. I notice that when i get flashbanged in the face and my screen turns all white, my clocks suddenly drop to like 100mhz then pops back to 600mhz again.

    This does not really bother me but is this suppose to happen? or will powermizer help stop this issue?

    thanks :)

    Download the powermizer switch and turn it off on both batter and AC adapter and you should be fine.
