I'm rather new and I'm wondering.. what are the advantage(s) of using RivaTuner over the nvidia control panel for oc'ing the graphics card?
Rivatuner is "DA" tool to tweak your GPU especially to control your OC and fan speed. You can even get it to show real time FPS, GPU temp etc. while gaming. The learning curve can be steep to master it but It's worth it if you like to 'optimize' your system. This may Help.
