I want your GTX460 vBIOSes!

[Ket]

I can't speak for all cards, but my KFA you can flash any BIOS you want to but it doesn't seem to "apply" the BIOS properly.. could just be nvflash not being quite up to speed yet.

[jabski]

nice one for this ket. I will try the zotac bios

[StefanZ]

Let us know if it worked Jabski

@Ket - m8 can u please update the 1st post with all the bioses in this thread i think u already did that 1nce, i cannot differenciate b/w 1gb and 768 bios out there.

also can u tell me what changes you are making with all these bioses or ur putting all these as original without any change or just with the change in voltage limit from 1087 to 1212?

here m confused a lil....:| :P

btw .....i just bought POV 1gb normal card when i comes i will provide u mine hope it comes out a golden 1 :p


EDIT1 : -- 2D / blueray voltage 1v (for those who want to set their own clocks)

how one will set their own clock?? i mean yea afterburner will do but it will change the 3d voltage only naa not the 2d? if i want to lower down the 2d voltage then what all i have to so? here i guess the base is 1.1v as u already crossed the 1087 limit as per my understanding. again m confues lol care to explain please

[crskymod]

I just downloaded the files on Firefox everything its OK.

I think IE es corrupting the files.

Thanks

2D will be 1.000v, 3D will be 1.1v. It will only change between those 2 voltages depending on what you are doing. You can set clocks through afterburner, precision etc, however voltages will be as depicted above for 2D/3D. Voltage limit is also raised meaning you can go higher through software if you like, however, not lower.

First post edited with a summary of commands to use to ensure a successful EEPROM update.

Have a Palit GTX460 Sonic Platinum on the way, should get it monday, will post the bios. Saw one Sonic bios posted but wasnt sure if it was the platinum.

[StefanZ]

Ket,

Did you get my colorful GTX460 1GB ?

I will post it again

I renamed the .bin file to .zip, so this is NOT a compressed file.
Could you unlock it for me ??

Has anyone had any experience with different bios producing different overclocking results or are they all too similar in timings and revisions?

[ajdaho]

hello
sorry for my bad English
have somebody bios for Palit gtx460 /768mb ?
NOW i put on this mk-13 and i get 940/1880.4400 stable with 1,087V but i think maye by if i can set more voltage i can hit 1ghz

[jabski]

Let us know if it worked Jabski

Just tested it now. Works fine. Many thanks for your work Ket

I tried to flash my GTX460 1G card with the Zotac GTX460 1G bios with nvflash 5.95 for windows, and got a warning.

WARNING: FIRMWARE IMAGE PCI SUBSYSTEM ID (19DA.2166) DOES NOT MATCH ADAPTER PCI SUBSYSTEM ID (7377.0000).
PLEASE PRESS Y TO CONFIRM TE OVERRIDE OF PCI SUBSYSTEM ID'S.

Is this correct ???

If i want to use the dos version of nvflash...which one should i use.
The latest one i found was version 5.77.

Hey Ket gigabyte has released a new bios for their GTX460 1GBOC which has the unlocked fan controller so you can choose from 40% to 100%.
Its called the F2 bios and the Gigabyte card owners(like me) can flash the bios with their tool @BIOS and this bios:

http://www.2shared.com/file/riOUOFm6/GV-N460OC-1GI.html

So we don't have to flash in dos.

A little side note on this bios the fan speed is the fastest at 93%, at all the percentages above this it goes a little bit slower.

[Aedubber]

Hey guys , what are you guys using to consider stable please? You have to really torture your cards to be 100% stable , I perfer Vantage . You can download the program and get a free run to see how stable you really are . There should be no tearing or artifacts when running the test .

Wow! Thanks for the massive tip on the fan speed. I never would have thought highest would actually be slower than lower. I immediately loaded up Afterburner after reading your post and sure enough, 93-94% has the fan tachometer reading at 3690-3720rpm. Setting it higher had the rpms go sligher slower until 100% was in the 3500rpm range. Very strange but great to know! Thanks again!

Hello Guys,

When i tried to flash my GTX460 with NVFLASH 5.95 for windows, i got a warning message.

WARNING: FIRMWARE IMAGE PCI SUBSYSTEM ID (19DA.2166) DOES NOT MATCH ADAPTER PCI SUBSYSTEM ID (7377.0000).
PLEASE PRESS Y TO CONFIRM TE OVERRIDE OF PCI SUBSYSTEM ID'S.

Is this a problem, or can i just press Y to flash the bios.

What version of NVFLASH should i use to flash.... 5.95 for windows or 5.93 for dos ?

[RAGNAROKUN]

Already got 2 people under water hitting 1ghz , hopefully I will be the 3rd

MSI? ....
hitting 1ghz needs more than 1.2v?

[Ket]

new vBIOSes uploaded. Check first post.

[Aedubber]

Thanks Ket !! My waterblocks are coming in this Thursday , hopefully I can get them underwater and then flash the cards

[kup]

What blocks did you go for in the end?

[Aedubber]

Ek waterblocks I use all their waterblocks for my whole setup . I have everything in a custom tj07 case , but I change parts so often that I'm doing a custom techbench , so much easier to swap things out lol .

[StefanZ]

Has anyone tried which bios gives the best overclock, or is there no difference between the bioses ???

Also your link in the first post doesn't seem to work. I was going to try the Asus bios but alas it don't work
