Ntune works, I can overclock that way; however, the coolbits file that you
pointed me to does not work. Has nvidia moved the overclocking
functionality to the ntune program?

Just picked up an EVGA GeForce 7600 GT, uninstalled my old NVIDIA
drivers, went to NVIDIA.com and downloaded/installed the new driver.
When I go to the nvidia control panel and I go to the 3D settings, I do
not see an overclocking option as the help states that I should. Am I
doing something wrong, or is it simply that the EVGA card is crap and
doesn't support overclocking of the chip? Thanks!
You need to enable 'coolbits' a registry file you can download here, which
turns on many hidden but useful forceware features.

In addition, you can install ntune, which is coolbits for your
motherboard, cpu and ram, it installs and runs inside the nvidia control
panel gui.

You can use coolbits in either the classic or new control panel.
