svl7 Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 Can you upload a copy of your current vbios? Use atiflash for dumping. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MasterInTheUniverse Posted March 24, 2014 Author Share Posted March 24, 2014 Instead, can you give me a vbios for my clevo p170em? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
svl7 Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 Possibly, not sure which one will work best, but as you need to flash it anyway just make a dump of your current vbios so that I know which one doesn't seem to work well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MasterInTheUniverse Posted March 25, 2014 Author Share Posted March 25, 2014 ok, how can i upload it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel8970m Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 use atiwinfash, there you can see your vbios version. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MasterInTheUniverse Posted March 27, 2014 Author Share Posted March 27, 2014 Prema helped me and I flashed the vbios...the same this vbios can't be read by gpu-z....however with overvolt in sapphire trixx I can reach very good clock on gpu (for the momento 1150 mhz) but the clock of ram is very lock... I cant improve 50mhz (1300MHZ ) either that it causes freeze.moreover the clock of the ram (1250mhz) is a bottleneck that doesn't let me enjoy the benefits of overclock on gpu clock. Infact on 3dm11 @def the score is p7250 points , with gpu overclocked only a little more....does a vbios "oc mode" exist? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
svl7 Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 Still interested in your original dump. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 AFAIK the vRAM isn't as easy to OC as on previous cards.Take a look here:http://forum.techinferno.com/clevo/4316-%5Bguide%5D-amd-hd7970m-enduro-vbios-modify-flashing-p1x0em-etc.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
POWER Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 @ MasterInTheUniverseI wanna upgrade my P-1xxEm with a 8970M and I read your thread here but I dont know why do you flashed a new vBIOSversion? What is better/different? Do you had stability problems with your old vBIOS? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MasterInTheUniverse Posted March 27, 2014 Author Share Posted March 27, 2014 ok, it's official, I can not reap the benefits of overclocking...it' like if I didn't overclock....the fps on BF4 are the same @ 900/1250 and 1200/1250, as the 3dm11 and unigine heaven too...HOWEVER great card on BF4 flies!

POWER Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 Just to clarify...my vBios detection works correct with a 8970M in a Clevo P170EM. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krissjr Posted November 21, 2016 Share Posted November 21, 2016 @POWER Where did you get the vBIOS from, did it come already flashed or did you do it yourself? If so, where did you find it? I also have a P170EM. My 7970M failed so I'm gonna get a cheap 8970M. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robinlecouteur Posted February 10, 2017 Share Posted February 10, 2017 https://www.techpowerup.com/vgabios/?architecture=&manufacturer=&model=HD+8970M&interface=&memType=&memSize=&since= This is where you get the vbioses, if it is not already flashed.
