    Hi all,
    good news: I have installed ntune 6.03.12.00 (not 6.03.06) from here http://www.nvidia.com/object/nvidia_system_tools_6.03.html (release date January 9, 2009) and with DOX 181.20 magically I have the possibility to OC core, shader and memory like the "official" 179.28 but with all the benefits of latest desktop beta drivers!!

    Tell if also with other driver versions you can OC (I have not enough time..)

    PS:If you want a +rep is welcomed :p

    It seems that all Nvidia drivers from here on will allow software OC. 179.28, 181.20, and 185.20 each allows 98xx series to be OC via ntune 6.02 and 6.03.

    I'm seriously keen to overclock my 9800m GTS, can you still use ATi Tool to test for artifacts... or has that been locked down now?

    well I think that 8800M GTX there are NO problems at all...

    Your 9800M GTS can be highly OCed, but before I think you have to increase the voltage with a flash, then you can use soft OC..
    ATi tool works yes, but artifact scanning now is very driver sensistive!

    Please don't ask for rep, it's against the forum rules.
