still cant get the TOP bios to work with my visiontek 4870x2... my stock bios are dated 9/30/08 much newer than the TOPs so im guessin they changed up the memory chips or something on my card.

anyone tried this bios on an Saphire 4870X2 Card??
Thank goodness for XS! I love this community.
I just flashed my HIS 4870X2 with the ASUS TOP BIOS and it brought the card to life!
I wasn't even able to move the memory to 905 without freezing...now the card runs 1000 no problem.
With the original HIS, I was getting VGA beep code on cold boots...not with the ASUS TOP BIOS! I love it.

I have flashed my 4870x2 to the clean 4870x2 TOP bios from page 3.
Though my computer isn't very stable after the flash. 3DMark06 is often artifacting, when I restart it it's gone. My screen doesn't pop up at once when I boot, I often need to restart the computer before I get something on my screen. And the whole system freezes quite often.
I was using the stock TOP clocks. No other changes were made in the roms.
Is it requierd that I uninstall CCC? Or have I read something wrong? I'm just using 9.11, didn't uninstall it.
Currently the 4870x2 is flashed to stock.
Thanks a lot for the help!

Does any one have both master and slave stock bios for Visiontek 4870x2. Currently having problem with win 7 after installing cards, windows load drivers then I install ati drivers and reboot. After that widows 7 doesn't boot all the way and hangs and gets corrupted. Hoping a re-flash to stock and that fixes it. Anyone have this problem before?

Can anyone link me to the ASUS 4870X2 TOP Bios Master/Slave.
Also what is the latest stock bios released by ATI for the 4870X2? I haven't seen any posts that mention ATI bios fixes.

For the stock BIOS, look at the website of your brand.

I already found the TEAMAU rips. I wanted stock ones that they had posted a long time ago from ASUS.

Old post but when I originally found it, I registered on the board and it took almost a year to be accepted. Anyway back then I did mess with this bios on my VisionTek X2, but I ran into an annoying issue. For some reason my fan speed would only reach 50% of what the stock bios could put out. My card would get close to overheating after a period of time since the auto fan profile nor manual fan speed could be increased past 50% (Seeing that maybe 100% on the TOP card may be half the speed since it had a much better cooler?).
Either way I had to flash back to stock since I could not keep the card cool enough while using this bios and only 50% fan speed. Did anyone else have a similar issue and find a way around it or am I the only one?
A little late, but i just want to whine a bit :P
Seems that my 4870x2 doesn't want to work on more than 800 core AT ALL. No vcore rising, nor cooling helps, nothing. It's just the most unlucky 4870x2 ever released ;/
Tried everything - BIOS clock, Sapphite TrixX, CCC, nothing ;/
