    Hello,

    It seems that when I overclock with Rivatuner, the hardware monitor shows a completely different clock than the one I adjusted to on the System Tweaks panel.

    Therefore I'm just wondering, should I trust the clocks displayed in the hardware monitor, or the exact one's I clocked to on the system tweaks panel?

    This is common. I use "nvidia monitor" to monitor clock speed as it's usually bang on :)

    i think your clock setting only apples to 3D performance, normally on 2D or less intensive processing, it has a lower clock
