WANTED: Asus TOP bios set for 4870x2

[eva2000]

i used eva2000's guide

all working fine for me

my guide and Asus TOP bioses were original unmodded BIOS + higher fan speed profile which was a bit different to Tim's originally posted Asus TOP bios which was clocked like 800/1000 out of the box IIRC

[oMek]

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??

[duldog]

All right I flashed the TOP BIOS again last night and began benching. I'm Vantage stable at 862/1000. I'm going to test for further stability in COD:WaW today.

do you mind posting your bios bud??? or emailin it??

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.

Here's the TOP Bios's unmodded for the picky people:

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!

PS; My i7 is stable..

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?

Hello

Teste full on air

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.

Search a little bit harder next time..

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 ;/
