Anyone have a spare geforce laying around? Maybe this will fix all of the dual-plane/overlay crap associated with the regular geforce.

the qudro still has the same overlay issues …the qudro can handle overlays due to the speed of the chip if anyone would code it to do so , or at least thats what i was told by a fairly knowledgeable tech freak. So I think those drivers just maxamise the thru put of the g-force card to equal the speed of a quadro. Its hardpatching it to overclock the board , don’t know how safe that is in the long run. Might work fine if you do it right , but the increase didn’t seem so great for the hastle involved.
