I have bought a new N240GT MD512 DDR5. Now the problem is that no matter what I do card is sitting in downgraded PowerMizer level with frequencies of 405,324 while the original should be 550,1800. Even if I open ogl app like glxgears the nvidia-settings seem to detect ogl being ran and changes mode from "Desktop" to "Maximum performance" but the level stays the same with clock values of downgraded mode. As a result of this performance of 3d applications is suffering a lot.
Now I have tried to disable PowerMizer or force it to run in normal clock but it seems to ignore all the options. It also seems to ignore overclocking settings.
Here is what I have tried so far:
Both seemed ineffective.
So my question is if anyone have any idea how to disable PowerMizer function or to force normal clock frequencies?
Edit:
My system is 8.0-STABLE amd64 and NVidia driver is 195.22

Code:
Section "Device"
Identifier "Device0"
Driver "nvidia"
VendorName "NVIDIA Corporation"
Option "Coolbits" "1"
Option "RegistryDwords" "PerfLevelSrc=0x2222; PowerMizerLevel=0x1"
EndSection
