[OliverM84]

Thanks soo much, what would be the limit now for 470, cos i'm on holiday and can't sleep ))

1,213v ....

Unter water, no problem.

[QuadDamage]

i dont know man but every bios i've tried is 61kb in size and every bios you uploaded here is only 41kb or so. I'm thinking it's the forum issue.

could you try emailing me the bios, not zipped.

thegooner78@gmail.com

Sorry and thanks.

[OliverM84]

When i save my own bios vom the forum, its 61KB ....

I send it per mail to you.

[QuadDamage]

Yeah i'm sure you're doing it right, but as you can see the attachments here are ~45kb or so almost 20kb too small and i'm sure this is the problem. Flashing back to my older bios or any other 61kb bioses from techpowerup is not a problem.

Again thanks, and sorry for bothering you.

edit - yep it appears to be working. I'll prolly be able to push it past 930Mhz now.



thanks again.

[pr@$r1g]

Oh wow a new tool

Some Benchics with no OC with GTX470 & i added some points for XS

Here's Some 3dMark's

01


03


06


Vantage

[donmarkoni]

Its no official program, sorry.

Is that program only internal stuff, or work in progres and will be available soon?

The zip file is about 45kb, ... if you extract it, its 61KB.

Very impressive Oliver!

alternate to nibitor ........ till now we were only dependent on nibitor to edit bios (its certainly the best)

[Orbmu2k]

Let's speak for myself

but is possible to edit fan profile?
link for fermi bios editor?

You can not change the fan profile with this tool.

There will be no public downloadlink at all!

Is that program only internal stuff, or work in progres and will be available soon?

Its internal and very experimental stuff, its as it is, it will not be fixed if it contains bugs, it will not developed any further, and it will not be published at all.

alternate to nibitor ........ till now we were only dependent on nibitor to edit bios (its certainly the best)

No alternate at all, its just for Fermi, just for very limted features, and not public. ;-)


I build it for my own needs only and it wont go any further than this. I also can not guarantee that its working for all fermi bioses and all cards out there.

If some people are aware of all the risks that my tool offers, and still want to check it out, they can PM me and i will give it to them with the simple restriction of not to redistribute or share it in any way.

Ready

Waiting for OC results

[Roch]

Decided to try out some MK-13s on my 470s.









I think I need to get some better fans, i'm using 900prm Noiseblockers as intakes and there's definitely a hot spot around the top card. The bottom cards dropped full load in Combuster by 10c but the top one's no better than the stock cooling. I might be at the edge of what the MK-13s are capable of perhaps? I put them on mainly for silence anyway so I'm fairly happy with the results, 750 on stock volts and 775 with 1087.

I think you need high rpm fans, because i tried it on my gtx480 and vith low rpm fans (about 1000rpm) i had more than 12 degrees higher temperature than with 1700rpm fans. Anyway, the tempriture was very high 108 and then 96 degrees, so MK-13 can not handle GTX480s heat with low noise.

I think you should consider fixing the bottom heatsink on that second GPU over time it will warp your PCB. I don't know if you noticed the difference between both, but the bottom card heatsink is not straight.

Regards

P.S. you yill eventually get a constant beep ..... when the GPU dies

[cowie]

this is the real deal right here,ab and my voltmeter say the same thing


OliverM84 is the man
thanks bro
if your ever in new jersey the drinks are on me



if you guys try this chilled water or better i think.

i'll send you 1 of my 480 bios too if its ok.

[Pedropc]

Good OliverM84, I can give you 480 POV bios modified with frequencies 825/1650/2005/1.025v max 1.213 V.

Thank you.

Sorry for my bad English.

[iMik]

Can you please modify bios for my Asus 470 gtx.

[Ghigo]

Can mod this bios to max volts ? Thank you is newest version around from a EVGA SuperClocked GTX 480 .

This ek block on just a single loop looks can take more heat so far

http://hotfile.com/dl/41897701/18026ad/bios2.rom.html

880 2200 is my actual 24/7 setting rock solid at 1.138, but 900+ is a no go just activating it barely hold in desktop mode.

[DStealth]

Thanks
I returned here to test :
so far just to bench 900/4200 1.1V GTX470 Full Air - 24*c ambient :

AfterBurner is not recognizing Voltage limit

But 1.58V to Vmem let me bench 4400 and 4360mhz Atitool free

Here's what i got from my GTX470



will OC it more ASAP

soory pr@$r1g wont be able to compete with you this time Got a 980x watercooled workstation/gaming/cruncher rig in the work but maybe later i could squeeze in a gtx470 and see what i can do and do another fun comp with you. hd5770 comp was fun and i might try it with the 980x back since i got a waterblock for it. I could maybe take back my spot
