    Problem Description
    Never ever had a corruption issue (touch wood), but i have never been able to use SLI without a freeze (in games, i can run vista as long as i like without freezing with SLI). The GTLrefs and voltages that i have there allow me to use one card with no freezing in games, but i still get freezes in movies, although it takes an hour or two. If i move those GTLrefs up or down, i dont get the freeze, but it will stutter when it would normally freeze for about, 1-2 seconds, then continue like nothing happened. With all settings Auto i get cant play games, as it freezes. Tried overclocking too, still no corruption but no improvement in SLI freeze, so ill just wait until ive solved SLI before i overclock.
