NVflash is the best for coping and flashing. Nibitor for editing. You will need a floppy drive or USB to use NVflash. Floppy is easier to work with IMO.

Yea, I need to get me one. I hate having to hook up my floppy drive to do flashing.

That or I've been looking at a card reader that has a floopy drive in it.

Hello.

Is there any point in bios flashing if your video card supports manual overclocking? thanks.

You never have to worry about opening up your Overclocking program, and the settings stay at that level. So yes.

Also, I believe you can up the voltage just a LITTLE bit.

Thanks for the info Although I have configured Rivatuner to overclock only when a DirectX10 application is running, so I guess Bios Flashing isn't for me. By the way, how much voltage increase do you suggest for a 15% Overclock (15% higher then regular settings) on a 9800 GT... sorry for the offtopic.

If you are going to be messing with voltages. Buy a digital multimeter so you can confirm what changes you are actually making to voltages.
