I own a Gigabyte G1 Gaming Edition of nVidia's massive new 980ti GPU. It's a great card as-is but I do love to tinker and I'm aware that it uses the same core (GM200 I believe) as the new Titan X GPU, the only difference aside from the 6gb GDDR5 RAM versus the Titan's 12GB is that some of the CUDA cores are disabled on the 980ti, giving it 2,816 active cores instead of the full 3,072 on the Titan X. I'm curious if it would be possible to flash a 980ti so it thinks it's a Titan X and would therefore use that additional block of previously disabled cores. I remember it was once very easy to do this with, say, the old ATI Radeon cards - one could buy a certain relatively cheap card, flash it to something better that used the same core, and even bolt on a better cooling fan, overclock, and that's all it would take to build a way stronger rig for a bargain price. Those were the days, right! I'm sure there are safeguards in place now to make this more difficult because companies like nVidia don't like to lose money, and that difference in amount of video RAM might require a "hybrid" modded VBIOS, but do you think it could be done? What obstacles would have to be overcome? Where might I start in researching this further?

I have an ASUS ROG GR8 (https://www.asus.com/uk/ROG-Republic-Of-Gamers/ROG_GR8/) which comes with an INTEL HD 4000 Series card and the nVidia GTX 750 Ti. The nVidia drivers clearly read it as the 750 Ti but the nvflash utility states I have the following <0> GeForce GTX 860M (10DE,1392,1043,84BB) H:--:NRM B:02,PCI,D:00,F:00 ​ I tried to OC the card by increasing the wattage - which worked fine! I started playing around with the KeplerBiosTweakerand eventually came across the option to Fix Invalid Clocks (shown below) I saved the file and since then, the drivers don't even recognise the card. In the process , I lost the original BIOS backup I had. YES, I am stupid for this and I now regret my failure to being more careful with my backups (especially for BIOS edits) I have tried every single .rom file included in all the versions of ASUS GPUTweak and ASUS GPUTweakII, I have tried the ROMS from the BIOS DB...nothing works. I plead someone with the same model or someone who happens to have the ROM backed up to upload it for me. GPU-Z saved the file as GM107.rom. I would be forever grateful!

ITS INTALLED IN MY ALIENWARE M18X R1 THE ALIENWARE HAVE THE BIOS 04 MODED FROM THIS PAGE THE GTX 680M 4GB WAS PULLED FROM A ''CLEVO P170EM'' AND THE ACTUAL Vbios IS ( 80.4.29.0.1 ) AND I SAW A POST WHITH A OVERCLOCKED VBIOS IN THIS PAGE. Clevo 680m (80.04.33.00.10) 'OCedition' revised v01 EDIT by svl7 ...THIS ONE... CAN IT WORK IN MY ALIENWARE OR IT WILL BRICK MY LAPTOP? HELP!:confusion:

What are the risks of changing the vbios on a asus G751JT-CH71 (GTX 970m 3gb)? Previously I had a desktop that had a GTX 660 and I tried to change it's vbios and resulted in the card not being read by windows but since then I have changed its vbios to its original and works fine. Now I have tried overclocking my card (GTX 970m 3gb) and it worked perfectly with a slight fps boost but I feel like the card can handle more +135 on core isnt much, I have read on other sites that it exists a modded vbios that increases the amount you can add but before so I would like to know the chances of its success and if it really gives a boost that's significant and worth it.

Hi, guys! I've been browsing the forums a lot lately and as of now, I've yet to find Vbios for the 3gb and 4gb versions of the 970m and the 980m respectively. I'm not sure if no one has ever come around to unlocking them or I just haven't looked hard enough. In any case, if someone here actually knows where to find them, please do tell as I'm completely sure that it would help a lot of people (myself included).

I just recently received my newest Alienware purchase - the new 13" model with an nVidia GeForce GTX 960m (a Maxwell chip.) I'm aware of the recent debacle in which nVidia disabled all mobile overclocking in their drivers, I believe versions 345.09 and up. It's also been said that they've disabled it in their new vBIOSes as well. However I was able to uncover a link in which users are confirming that version 347.88 enabled overclocking even on cards that are intended to be clock-blocked in vBIOS: NVIDIA 347.88 Game Ready Driver - 17/03 (re-enables overclocking!) | NotebookReview There's even a user who reports having inf-modded that driver to allow installation with the new 960m, and claims to have unlocked overclocking capability. However, as yet I've been unsuccessful in modding that same driver to install on my system. I've copied the main ListDevices.txt file and all the .inf files in the Display.Driver folder over from version 350.12 which naturally supports the 960m but the result reports "required files are missing" and will not install. Could someone with more experience than I when it comes to inf-modding a driver give me some pointers? Any other ideas or solutions for unlocking the likely massive OC potential of the 960m? vBIOS mod perhaps? I've seen a mod for the 970m along with a modified nvflash EXE. I can provide my current vBIOS if anyone is willing to look into it!! Thank you!!

Hi Friends, I am new and I have Clevo P170HM and my GTX 580M ist damage. I bought GTX 580M from MSi Laptop but I have Black Screen, Laptop startet to Windows. I need Vbios GTX 580M from working Clevo P170HM Please Help me !!!

NVIDIA 'Maxwell' VBIOS mods Here you find modified VBIOS versions for the mobile parts of the Nvidia 'Maxwell' series. The VBIOS versions in this post are tweaked for performance and versatility. You'll get almost complete control over the performance parameters of your GPU. List of available VBIOS mods: Nvidia GTX 970m - 'OC edition' rev0 - >> 6 GB Version << - modified by @johnksss & svl7 -> see attachments Nvidia GTX 980m - 'OC edition' rev0 - >> 8 GB Version << - modified by @johnksss & svl7 -> see attachments Screenshot demonstrating the capabilities of the 970m versions: >> Read the instructions carefully before flashing! << If anything is unclear after reading or if you have additional remarks, please post in the thread. Flashing: - Go to the device manager -> 'Display Adapters' -> chooser your GPU, right click on it and choose disable - Flash the VBIOS with mnvflash, a modified version of nvflash (see attachments). Here are detailed instructions for nvflash in case you aren't familiar with it. - After the flashing is done: Enable the GPU once again in the device manager. - Reboot Do NOT use driver 347.09, it's broken and useless and won't allow you to overclock, even with the stock firmware.

Hello, I bought a GTX 580M for a P150HM, that I sold to a friend. Now I'm testing it with my P150EM. The 580M came with Alienware VBIOS. I modified the nvdmi, to install the driver and yes, it works, but: I think, I don't have the full power. Windows Experience Index only shows 6.6; if I run Assassin's Creed IV, I have verry low FPS, Nvidia Inspecor says the temperature is just 48°C and the system's power consumption is only 110W. And Nvidia's system panel crashes... I flashed a clevo VBIOS (VGA Bios Collection: Clevo GTX 580M 2048 MB | techPowerUp) on the card, but same results. Have anyone here ever used a 580M in a P150EM? Do you think, this problems will be solved in P150HM? What is your Windows Experience Index with GTX 580M? Thanks.

Morning all, First post . I have a Clevo P150SMA, it's about 6 months old now. Luckily I have some really nice temps at the moment:- CPU/GPU never seem to go above 60c. So I though let's overclock! I have flashed prema mod BIOS and now have no idea what to do next to overclock. I'm used to overclocking on AMD desktop machines but not Intel/nVidia laptops . I normally dual boot linux/windows, linux is my main OS and windows I use for gaming so I would prefer BIOS overclock, although for GPU this is not that important. MSI Afterburner does not allow me to overclock. So I far I believe the best thing to do is flash a vBIOS for the GPU to allow overclocking in afterburner and overclock the CPU in BIOS. My question is how do I overclock the CPU in BIOS and any other advice. A guide to prema mod BIOS overclocking would be great but I can't find anything.

So yeah, hello, this is my first post here. Well, the point is I've run into some issue. Today I decided to flash the vBIOS of my MSI laptop (GTX 780M). Apparently, it was successful but now for some reason, the computer isn't detecting my card. In short, I believe the pictures will describe it better. Just see below: So should I like revert back to stock or is there something else that needs to be done? Also I still have the NVIDIA drivers but they're not being recognized at all. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks.

Hello! I have MSI GX740 and a couple of days ago my new HD7970 has arrived, but when I plugged it in my notebook it just didn't show anything on the display. Here's the photo of the card: https://yadi.sk/d/F61G-U-xTDKog I'd like to know is there something special that I should do to make it work? Should I flash custom vbios? If yes, then what version should I search for? Please, help me with advice, I spent almost the same ammount of money on the card as on the whole laptop.

Bought used Alienware GTX 670M 1.5GB off eBay since mine MSI GTX 670M 1.5GB died. Same chipset, fits perfectly, installed with modded inf and gets recognized perfectly. Tried games, I get blue squares in Mortal Kombat 9 and Crysis 3 exits right when starting mission. DXGI error, nVidia fails and recovers itself... Tried different drivers, 327.23 was the best as I actually got the games up and running nicely (I believe this was due to 0.8V somehow). Decided to update drivers and troubles again. Voltage is high (0.85-0.9V), cannot start games, blue squares in some of them, lines, etc. I tested the card with Furmark, works great, no errors. Reverted back to 327.23, but no luck. VDDC is high again (0.9V), games don't work. What I believe is that VBIOS of the actual MSI GTX 670M 1.5GB would help in here. Does anyone have original VBIOS (not OC) and instructions with links on how to flash the GPU? I've got all the info on my PC, ask if you need anything. Currect hardware ID is: PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_1213&SUBSYS_095E1462&REV_A1. I believe the older (mine dead MSI GPU) hardware ID was: PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_1213&SUBSYS_10CB1462&REV_A1 Please take a look at this post on MSI HQ, scroll down please: https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=174954.msg1279984 Thanks!

My laptop experienced electrical surge and GTX 670M died. I checked everything else and it works like a charm. Ordered used Alienware GTX 670M 1.5GB off eBay, installed it, installed modded drivers and it works, but with troubles. I believe VDDC is too high for my laptop - 0.9V which makes games unplayable. I get blue squares on screen and different shapes. Checked the card with Furmark, works great, no errors. I installed older drivers (327.23), got the VDDC to 0.8V somehow (don't know), result - games work flawless. Updated drivers, same troubles. So, I guessed the laptop is overheating and high voltage because the GPU was installed in Alienware system which could probably have better cooling and voltage (?). VBIOS must be Dell's. I got all info on my PC, I can post it here for you guys. What I believe could be the best it to flash back original MSI GTX 670M 1.5GB VBIOS and everything should sort out by itself. I don't know how to flash, would be kindly provide me with instructions and links? Thanks! All the best! P.S. Current GPU hardware ID: PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_1213&SUBSYS_095E1462&REV_A1 Older (dead, MSI) GPU hardware ID: PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_1213&SUBSYS_10CB1462 (I believe this is correct since I'm half-guessing it based on my experience) I posted my problem here too, please scroll down: https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=174954.msg1279984

I don't know why ASUS would allow you to update your bios from ntfs when it bricks your laptop! I've been researching it for a few days now and it seems my only options are either RMA to ASUS or reprogram the one that's causing the issue. I've tried everything as far as removing CMOS battery for a minute to removing hard drives and RAM. Still. When I plug it back up. I get no power. No lights. Nothing. I am leaning towards buying a programmer but before I did, I was wondering if anyone else had any solutions. Thank you

I got myself a GT70 (one with 675mx and 3630QM) but the stock settings were not good enough so I tried overclocking the GPU to see if i can get better performance. Using afterburner, I get around 800mhz for the core and +650 to the memory, but I think it can go a little more temps are still fine at around 75-80C under load (CPU goes way up to around 90C ) so I wondered if there's any way to overclock the core further cuz it seems to have reached its limit for the memory. PS. I have no experience with flashing vbios or modding. So please keep it simple guys

Hello Community, yesterday I upgrade my GT663R up to a (clevo) GTX485M. I try to edit the VBios to the MSI Vendor ID, also try to flash the MSI GTX580M VBios, but no Driver accepted the card. It only works with an old Mod Driver V.302.77 from Laptopvideo2go. (Need it for Win7 64-bit) I also wrote a german Tutorial with much pictures about the VGA upgrade. Hope it is OK to link to my tutorial? MSI GT663R MXM Upgrade Tutorial - Von der GTX460M zur GTX485M - Modding Center - MSI Forum Can anybody help me to fit the VGA, that it is possible to install as newer Driver? Best would be a MSI VBios for it that works. Maybe there is no way in the Motherboard Bios, because MSI never built in a GTX485M? I hope, anybody can help me running my VGA in my Notebook? Please! I dont know what to do now. Thank you very much! Greetings, Borpf Sorry for my bad english!

Hi Everyone, So I am having some issue with my GPUS's at the moment. I have 2 Gigabyte HD7950 Windforces in crossfire and I keep having issues playing some games. (By issues I mean the game wont run etc. or just black screen) I am able to solve the issue by disabling crossfire in catalyst, but I don't really want to just have one card running right? Anyway I looked deeper and noted that one card has the F2 BIOS and the other has the FZ1. My question is could this be the issue, and even if it isn't how do I flash the card so they both have FZ1 or the latest version? Cheers guys,

Hy everone! Is there a unlocked vbios for the GTX 675M for under-, overvolting? Or is there a Programm for Nvidia vbios Editing? I Have only found One for AMD Chips and the newer Kepler Chips but none for Fermi. I`m using a Clevo P150EM if that is important. Thanks halo19fan89

I've been testing different speeds on my core clock and memory clock, and I seem to have found my card's breaking point. My GPU's voltage maxes out at 1.100, but I can keep my temps under 60 degrees Celsius. I know that if I can volt it a little more, I can get a bit of performance without having my chip melt. My voltage is locked, but I know that a modded VBIOS would solve that problem. The only problem is, I can't find any database or list or site containing any. Does anybody have a go-to site that hey trust to help me out? Thanks in advance . Specs: CPU - i7 - 3630QM 2.4Ghz-3.2Ghz Turbo; GPU: Geforce GTX 660m; RAM: 8GB GDDR5; Main Drive: 64GB SSD; Slave Drive: 750GB HDD; Notebook Model: G75V; OS: Windows 8

I have noticed that my GPU clock is stock at the max default clock. I am trying to mod my bios file but no application can find settings for it. If anyone has a suggestion on modding or a bios file for the 675mx 4gb that is enabled for overclocking let me know. My computer is a ibuypower computer, so its a little different than the msi version. I am kinda down that there is little to no support on my computer hardware. I have my bios uploaded, if anyone wants to see if they have any luck moding it. (right now i have it being OC to +135mghz core and +750mghz mem but its locked to default by bios) also, i cannot download files from this forum... it would be so awesome if i could.. or have alternative file downloading options?

UPDATE: ALL DOWNLOADS LISTED IN THIS POST FOUND HERE. Nvidia 'Kepler' GPUs - modified VBIOS files >>> NOTE: More versions (including voltage mods) exclusive for T|I users can be found in the second post. <<< The 'Kepler' GPUs from Nvidia perform really well, even at increased clocks speeds they stay quite cool - a perfect behavior when it comes to overclocking and improving the performance. Unfortunately the mobile GPUs suffer from an artificial +135MHz core overclocking limit, so you can't go higher by using tools like Nvidia Inspector and similar. The modified VBIOS files listed here have this limit unlocked, some have increased stock clocks or tweaked voltages. Just refer to the description. All files have been modified by myself, if you like them feel free to buy me a drink, donation link can be found below GTX 660m: 660m_OC_edition__VBIOS_[DELL].zip- comes with unlocked software overclocking limits 660m_GHz-Edition_overvolted_VBIOS_[DELL].zip - default 3d clock 1000MHz, base boost 1200MHz,, memory (3d) 1350MHz, increased 3d voltage undervolted editions possible, depends on interest, tba Some screenshots: GTX 680m: Clevo_680m_-_80.04.33.00.10_'OCedition'_revised_01.zip Dell_680m_-_80.04.33.00.32_'OCedition'_revised_00.zip Increased software overclocking limits & optimized for no throttling.
