NVidia GeForce video cards can usually be overclocked a certain amount. The exact amount depends on the the DAC and memory speed, but a reasonable boost in graphics performance can usually be achieved with a little experimentation. This tweak adds an additonal option to the Display Properties window under the existing NVidia GeForce tab allowing adjustments to the DAC and memory speeds.
Please note: This tweak requires an NVidia GeForce 2/3/4/FX or NVidia Quadro 2/3/4/FX card running Detonator driver version 32.xx or 4x.xx or later. This tweak is performed at your own risk. If you experience any problems following application of this tweak, reboot and change back to the default settings.

To overclock NVidia GeForce video cards:

Use a registry editing tool to navigate to the following key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\NVIDIA Corporation\Global\NVTweak


Insert a value with the following details:
Data Type: DWORD
Value Name: Coolbits
Value: 4294967295


Reboot your machine for the change to take effect
