svl7 Posted May 25, 2013 Share Posted May 25, 2013 I imagined that people would like a vbios similar to the one I released for the Titan, so here you go. As I don't have 780 myself I'll need your feedback in order to adjust the mod in case something doesn't work as it should. Thanks for the people who tested it so far, all seems to work fine. Features of the "OC edition": Boost 2.0 disabled - the card runs at the clocks you set it to. Voltage is adjustable up to 1.2125V. Default power target = 350W (so there should be no more need to adjust it manually per software, EVGA classified vbios is set higher). Fan speed adjustable up to 100%. Clocks are stock, card idles normally at 2d voltage 'rev03' adds undervolting capabilities. To clarify some things - as boost is disabled clocks and voltage will be fixed in 3d mode. In all other performance profiles the card will behave just as the with the stock vbios. The main differences to the stock vbios is that there is no throttling. NOTE: If your 780m came with a 80.10.3A.00.xx or newer vbios from the factory, then please don't use an older version. People have reported issues when using an older vbios on 780s that came with 3A or newer. The reason for this might be a slight revision on the board or GPU. It won't harm if you flash an older vbios on such a card, but it can cause crashes and unstable behavior. ************* Download links 'OC edition': Nvidia_GTX_780_(EVGA)_80.10.3A.00.82_-_'OC_edition_v03'.zip EVGA 780 - SC ACX - 80.10.3A.00.81 - 'OC edition v03' (new fan profile).zip Nvidia_GTX_780_-_80.10.36.00.01_-_'OC_edition_v00'.zip 80.80.30.00.01_-_GTX_780Ti_'OC_edition'_v04.zip ************* MD5 sums for the paranoid guys: Spoiler EVGA 780 - SC ACX - 80.10.3A.00.81 - 'OC edition v03' - 6FD7FDEE05120BF41F98B5CC898A8CD1 EVGA 780 - 80.10.3A.00.82 - 'OC edition v03' - CDCFC4B53F0676E0AAA86A73BDE3B2FB EVGA 780 - 80.10.3A.01.80 - Classified_LN2_'OC edition' - C61934619746349575E4E3BF03CC0B3E EVGA 780 - 80.10.3A.00.80 - Classified_normal_'OC edition' - 236A73C0DA85A170CAF867E0D9A57CB4 EVGA 780 Classified - 80.10.3A.0x.80 - 'OC edition v03'.zip EVGA 780 - SC ACX - 80.10.3A.00.81 - 'OC edition v03' (new fan profile).zip 43 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Founder Brian Posted May 25, 2013 Founder Share Posted May 25, 2013 Very nice turn around time on the mod man! I'm sure lots of 780 GTX owners will appreciate it. For those asking about it being on the main download page, he hasn't even beta tested the vbios yet and isn't even sure it works, I'm pretty sure its not ready for that yet.

wholeeo Posted May 25, 2013 Share Posted May 25, 2013 I personally can't wait for it. My card has me limited at 1.18 for whatever reason, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoldenTiger Posted May 25, 2013 Share Posted May 25, 2013 I can't wait either... my ACX SC 780 is coming around the middle of the week. Looking forward to seeing what the BIOS mods here can do, since the Titan ones were quite helpful to oc'ing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Founder Brian Posted May 26, 2013 Founder Share Posted May 26, 2013 I personally can't wait for it. My card has me limited at 1.18 for whatever reason, I thought you had a Titan before or did you sell it? Anyway, try NVInspector to change your voltages, I found that Precision X and its variants can be buggy at times. Just so you guys know: Once @svl7 has determined the vbios is 100% stable and has received enough bug reports from you guys, we'll make the final version available to all on the main download portal. In the mean time, please submit any bugs you encounter (or if you don't and just want to brag about your new high score) in this thread and/or forum. We won't be giving any support on other forums.

Woklbokl Posted May 26, 2013 Share Posted May 26, 2013 Nope, keeping it! But a friend got 2 780s.Uhm, can't find nvflash 5.136, just 5.134. Where did you get it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoldenTiger Posted May 26, 2013 Share Posted May 26, 2013 I haven't been able to find that version either... contacted someone who hopefully will have it though and will post it if I get it . I'm going to try this BIOS on my 780 around 30 minutes after it's installed in my system (make sure it works properly first and see its default boost behavior, then flash). Still crossing my fingers for an early delivery... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then try flashing with NV flash with the new bios.

rush Posted May 27, 2013 Share Posted May 27, 2013 I can't test the versions myself since I don't have a 780, and the Titan doesn't work very well with a 780 vbios, hehehe... (and I assume vice versa won't work either, i.e. Titan vbios on a 780.... can anyone confirm this?)MD5 sums for the paranoid guys:Nvidia GTX 780 - 80.10.36.00.01 - 'OC edition v00' - 9FE763F778DAEF629E4B54F9C6F6E466depending on where u live in the famous Heidiland ... may u can test it. My card will arrive most likely at the end of this week .. depending on customs .. but the rest off the pc not before middle end next week. Just let me know per pm.

Default GPU clock at load is 901MHz and memory is 3005MHz.I was able to get a stable pass on Valley with 1215/3506 at 1.212V. 72.9 FPS and 3050 score.Previous best with stock EVGA SC BIOS was 1163/3557 at 1.187V. 70.2 FPS and 2936 score. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
