interesting. and it stays there, no throttling,at all?

now, if the driver goes, will it fry?

It's partially based off of application detection and part off of hardware monitoring. Why would the card fry?

just curious. so if drivers fail, there is still hardware based level protection that will run the limiter right?

asking these q's becase..1-was it implemented to keep power figures in check and make it nicer in the graphs and that's it and/or 2-it can fry if sky's the limit?

Well of course. Every GPU PCB for the last 10+ years has had a form of over current protection built into it. Plus, why would the core ask for more power than the card itself can provide?

In my limited search time between meetings, nothing turned up on a search of NCIX or newegg.ca I did however find direct links.
