Although NVmax also enables the video card speed in the drivers, it does not set the actual speed.

It also allows a much higher possible speed that your hardware can allow; but if you set the speed too high, you then run the risk of over heating your card and may damage it.

Once this affects your system at boot up or somehow garbles the screen, just run NVmax again on safe mode and it will restore to the default settings.
