    I did it on my MacBook Pro. Had an issue (in Vista with 165.01 drivers, at least) with the overclock setting going back to defaults when I rebooted.

    the new 162.18 drivers just came out. i think its pretty good.
    so if you over clock your CPU or GPU with ntunes, you will always need ntune to matain the overclock setting? what happens with you overclock with ntunes then you uninstall it.
