    Use the Adobe 10.1 flashplayer plugin and ActiveX Beta that fixt my problem with videos running in a browser. Clocks go up and Gpu stays in 3d. You can see in Gpu-z 0.3.8 the video engine load.

    At least you get one card to use its full potential, my 9800mGT's are always both downclocked on Battery which is 200mhz core/100mhz memory. I can't even play 3-4 years old games @ that speed

    Hi there,

    Just wanted to say thanks. The little app/gui is cool, but whoever did the research to realize that it was the GPU clock speed changes that caused audio drop-outs (among other things) has done myself and a lot of others a great favor.

    I can play live shows again now. ;)

    Cheers,
    Z

    PowerMizer switch is an excellent tool. My laptop was running at 72 celcius and now it's running at 55-62 celcius. Thanks for the app.

    Normally it is. You can check its status on the main screen of my tool. Changes are made only if you press one of the buttons on the right side.

    Thanks for this application!

    I use it to downcloack the GPU when running on AC. I have a problem with whitescreen and have to bake my mainboard to get the GPU working. If I use this program I can reduce heat wich equals reduced chance for the GPU to fail again.
