Is there such a card type that can alternate/change its performance between 3D applications and games?

Truth be told, I'm a gamer, and the 3D work I do is aimed towards gaming, and I'd abhor having to shut down my computer, open it up, swap out cards and start the thing up again just to switch between doing one/the other.

Not to mention it might get pretty hot (40-45 celsius...ouch!).

lol my 6800 alternates between 50 to 90 celsius...
anyways the bundled asus smartdoctor can overcklock and adjust fan speeds automatically and/of following your precise instructions both for ati and nvidia shipsets... dunno what other brands will have in that line...
