More details please :)
sometimes I hate it to be hw-addicted...this card reminds me of good old x800 gto(2) times somehow so I just picked up a Gainward 465 GTX and will give it a try...maybe it can outperform my 285 GTX in folding after beeing flashed...gonna test it soon :D thanks for all the infos so far, really got me curious :hehe:
what brands do we know so far can do this?
I'm also finding many of the PNY models have the full 10 RAM chips, this has been confirmed at OCN.
one thing I am thinking about:
- the first sample cards could use full 470 bios so TUs and ROPs did also increase
- the shot I saw from unlocked ASUS card here shows 32 ROPs only higher shaders...so it would be interesting what can acutally be unlocked - shaders only? TUs somehow? ROPs somehow?
Can't wait to get mine, I forecast it'll be death within the first 3 hours of testing bios versions :p: But I have enough cards to reflash ;)
Got Point of View GeForce GTX 465 today with 10 memory ics.. will try to upgrade to GTX 470 soon.
Seems to me like some AiBs don't have enough 465s so are rebadging 470s?
got my card today but I would like to test software unlock first - anybody has 465 GTX asus bios for me? (not the GPUz bin...)

Meeeeh power consumption is sick - 215W idle, 417W nature 03 :eek: I don't think I'll use it allday...but the cooler from gainward is ok, nothing to call truely silent but even overclocked it is not the loud hair dryer I expected - better than my 285 GTX I would say under load. But 400W+ while folding is a nogo :(
Clockwise it's ok NEEED MORE SHADERS!!!

Interested to see if this works.. :-)Quote:

edit: i picked up a pny from fry's in Arlington tx, pulled off the heat sink to find ten samsung chips, and then flashed it to find it wasn't stable in 3dmark. i increased the fan speed to 75 percent to get some shading artifacts, increased core voltage .05 to find it sable at stock speeds.
anyone got a link to nbitor 5.7, i would like to increase the voltage in bios. never know if some day it will not boot at stock voltage.
my memory speed went from 802 MHz to 837 MHz.
Ok, so I just went to Microcenter (Dallas) here locally. I picked up two PNY GTX465's and got them to match the Tiger Direct/Compusa deal, basically making them $246.88 before tax. Got them back to work and popped them apart, sure enough they have 10 chips and the GF100-275-A3 GPU, so it looks like I just got two GTX470's for $493 before tax, not bad. I will be flashing them tonight and seeing what they will do. Not sure what they will clock too, but they should be decent.
I found I didn't need more core voltage, I just had to clock the memory back to ~807 MHz.
I suspect memory voltage is set in hardware, anyone?
Im not risking any more cards, out of 5 cards i tested none were unlocked.. I wouldnt try this as i think Nvidia have caught on..
just recall my winfast gtx465 does have 10chips. will try out and update ya guys
anyone know why the difference in memory speed between the two boards???
different ram chips?

the 470 bios does OC the ram compared to 465 bios, backing off memory was enough to make my card stable. I've even OC'd the GPU.
I wouldn't say your right, nor would everyone else who has been successful.Quote:

I flashed my GTX 465 Black Screen
Just an FYI to everyone here, the only ones that it works with are the point of view cards (dont know which model). And ONLY the black PCB version of the PNY cards. The newer blue PCB version will not work
Try shopping at your local best buy for the old PNY version. Bestbuy doesnt sell very many, so they very likely have the old black pcb.
They will also do a price match to fry's price.
waiting for results ;)Quote:

Any news for PNY blue-PCB GTX465 owners? :)
And the MSI GTX 465 Twin Frozr II Golden Edition. But they are pretty damned expensive.Quote:
