nainje Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 Hello there, I wonder why I can't find any unlocked Vbios for the MSI 3GB 970M...Does someone got one to share eventually ???? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thegh0sts Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 Hi all, just recently I manage to install a pair of GTX 980M in my M18X-R2 replacing my good old 780Ms and there is some stuff I need to know, mainly about Nvidia Inspector and how to set up correctly the clocks to prevent throttle and why can't I adjust the power target. Btw my cards are already flashed with Prema mod 1.1.1 and I`m using the latest nvidia drivers. Can someone help Thanks[ATTACH]15916[/ATTACH]IIRC they were removed by prema.Sent from my HTC One using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greeneline Posted September 26, 2015 Share Posted September 26, 2015 So how come nobody has made a 980m vbios with "baked in" overclocks??? Is it not possible to do??? The 980m is capable of so much more than the unlocked rev 0 bios! If we were able to overclock the vbios we wouldn't have to worry about stupid NVIDIA disabling overclocking!!!Cant see it being too hard to do. I've made one for my 970m but I keep hitting power limits and the changes I make with Maxwell tweaker don't seem to make any difference. Given that there are people out there infinitely better at this than me who have been able to properly unlock a vBIOS it seems unnecessary and a bit dangerous to bake in overclocks, if you don't have to. A software overclocker on an unlocked vBIOS will be far safer if unstable/unsafe settings are entered as compared to baking them into the vBIOS.

timduke985 Posted September 26, 2015 Share Posted September 26, 2015 I previously had the 680M and was able to successfully overclock the vbios to whatever I wanted. With BIOS tweaker 2 and the 980m, the GPU throttles any time I overclock and flash the VBIOS. The software overclocking works fine, I just have always preferred a VBIOS overclock. I must not be doing something right. I would be willing to pay somebody a reasonable amount of money that could bake in overclock to my VBIOS!!!

Prometheus091 Posted September 30, 2015 Share Posted September 30, 2015 EDIT: It appears the 980m on the G751JY is confiremd to be an MXM board card, so vBios can be dumped, modded and flashed like for the other MXM GPUs (like Clevo). the only difference seems to be that this 980m cards have 4Gb Vram (instead of 8) and are apparently soldered to the mobo. Big thanks to Prema for the time it took to help modding this model's vBios Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
travisjank Posted October 11, 2015 Share Posted October 11, 2015 Sweet BIOS, I have been looking for one just like this! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ethrem Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 Is there any reason why this vbios drops to 405MHz when it hits 86C? I love the fact it runs at 1v (although it isn't stable out of the box at 1202 it works perfectly at 1126) because I have cards that get insanely hot. The problem is when they hit 86C the clocks drop to 405MHz until they drop to around 80C and then the cycle starts over. It isn't a temperature target issue as that appears to be set at 99C out of the box unless it's being read wrong? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like it'll throttle when reaching 87c just as the stock vB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Instead of throttling down in increments it drops straight to 405MHz. I didn't want to bug you for a 1v version of your vbios but this one drops my temps with max fans down to 73 and 71C in Heaven and it takes quite awhile to hit 87C without max fans so my cards definitely like the lower voltage.

Drop me a mail with your new ASIC scores and I'll drop the Turbo voltage on my mod to whatever you want. Have one user that wanted them down to 0.90v on the 980M and his cards are running just fine even with such a drop. Though it got a bit unstable at 0.85v...

Bios Modder Klem Posted October 17, 2015 Bios Modder Share Posted October 17, 2015 but I believe it is only for the 8GB version??For flashing procedure does not matter how much memory on the card. But if you asked about file vbios, then yes, file vbios in the first post for GTX 980M only with 8Gb memory. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kioharumi Posted November 8, 2015 Share Posted November 8, 2015 Guys, right now i am having some O.C issues...The only maximum O.C settings that allowed for me are :Power Limit : 200%Core Clock : +71Memory Clock : +55More than that, my GPU Driver will stop responding and give me BSOD....I am using MSI After Burner for overclocking, and using the Kombustor for stability test.... Usually, the driver will start crashing after 120 seconds for stability test using Kombustor....My PC Spec :CPU : Intel® Core i7-4720HQ CPUGPU : GTX 970M, 3072 MBRAM : 16 GB @ 666 MHz [DDR3]Model : MSI GE62 2QF Apache ProOf course, my GPU's vBios is Unlocked, and i have not O.Ced the Voltage at all...here is my copy of vBios for someone's reference : https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B7haSexhwjCkNF9UM0szcHBCYkk/view?usp=sharingSo, someone please help me for to really2 feel the 'Over'-Cloacking feeling and result.... The FireStrike result is always below 5000, and u guys state that U can achive result to 7000, please give me some tips !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bios Modder Klem Posted November 9, 2015 Bios Modder Share Posted November 9, 2015 For overclock more you need increase voltage on GPU core. Just completely uninstall MSI Afterburner, reboot laptop and install NVIDIA Inspector. Then you can increase voltage on GPU. Try set 1,025V or 1,050V. Then overclock your card.

Does that BIOS works for my VC (Same 970M 3GB)? I tried using the search feature to find a recent version of a vBIOS for that video card but couldn't find any.Thanks!
