craineeum Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 I haven't flashed my vBios yet but I'm having an issue with my nvidia driver failing when i OC my 780m over 900MHz core and 1350MHz mem. I'll try to run 3dmark firestrike and it stops before the first test is even ran. I'm just wondering if the vBios flash will stop the driver from failing once I exceed 900MHZ.thanksAlienware m17x | i7-4700MQ | GTX 780m | 16Gb DDR3 1600MHz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xian65 Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 Only thing vBIOS will allow is for more voltage to be applied which may stabilise the overclock but at that frequency it seems more likely that heat is your problem. What sort of temperatures are you seeing when using something like HWINFO or MSI afterburner ? I have a Logitech keyboard with LCD screen attached to my AW17 and use MSI Afterburner to output the temps to the KB LCD and with stock vBIOS and a 100Mhz overclock I see a temp range of around the 80 to 83 degree celsius mark.

jimbob1971 Posted April 1, 2014 Share Posted April 1, 2014 Interesting. Is this affecting only OC? I ask as I'm looking at drivers for the 780m and was going to go 334+ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
