Now Coolbits, from the screen shots that I have seen (at tweaktown.com, IIRC) has adjustments for the card processor speed and the card memory speed. My board allows speed, and voltage adjustments for the AGP. Am I right in my understanding that Coolbits will speed up the goings on inside the card iteself, but it will not speed up the communitcation between the main CPU and the card? Then, if I speed up the AGP, I will gain some extra performance there too, right, since I will increase the speed of communication between the main cpu and the video card? Any help you can give in understanding this will be appreciated. Thanks.
