NVIDIA Releases GeForce 359.00 WHQL Game Ready Drivers

[MxPhenom 216]

Exactly what I was thinking, because many games will install that on first play if it's not present.

Any piece of software will if it needs it, hell windows update installs that stuff sometimes.

The 970 has what NVIDIA calls GPU Boost. It boosts clocks based on temperatures and power target on its own, though it'll only hit a certain clock generally. Depending on the 970 you get determines how much it'll boost on its own above specified clocks. Pretty much its a sort of built in over locking algorithm. Been there since first Gen kepler cards. You don't have anything to worry about.

Do new me.bers not even read the forum rules? Probably 2/3 of them were violated in one paragraph.

@eH-Sh4dowco like what MxPhenom 216 said. It's something u shouldn't be worrying about. Basically it's a type of auto OC profile based on GPU load & temps so long as it runs well within it's Boost limits of around 82 degrees Celsius. Do note that u make sure the casing's side panel is open to let the VGA cool down. Custom versions of the 970 uses a more proper cooling solutions, so heat issues are the least of your worries.
