Slovak_Killer Posted April 11, 2019 Share Posted April 11, 2019 (edited) A thread dedicated to Discussion, Problems, News and OC stuff around MSI RTX 2080 Ti Lightning. Will be updated constantly.// Info about MSI RTX 2080 Ti Lightning // - Uses custom PCB (3x 8Pin), basically reference but with digital ICs : 8-Phase MP2888 and MP2884. Can handle up to 700A on LN2- Samsung GDDR6 instead of Micron, clocks better with also improved timings (depends on used BIOS)- Beefy cooling solution, though I recommend using watercooling as Turing full boost is under 60C.- Stock LN2 bios allows voltage change for vMem (memory voltage) and AUXs voltages (PLLs) those two are not necessary unless on LN2.- Max power limit is set to 380W with 108% set in Afterburner its 400W max, NDA LN2 bios is fully unlocked with up to 1000W power limit. Also Core Voltage is unlocked (Custom Afterburner (ABX) needed!!!)XOC Guide : HERE : Issues :MSI card somehow is scanning everything on PCB, checking for "dead" voltages or malfunctions and if it detects something like an unplugged fan (my case because I'm on waterblock) it goes into safe mode.Please use this BIOS to fix this : https://www.dropbox.com/s/8s0vewi7gg...RF_Ln2.7z?dl=0Few words from me :1) If u want higher power limit or LN2 NDA bios with ABX don't bother unless you're LN2 overclocker, it's extremely hard to get hold of this, also u will need Guide from MSI for HW mods which are needed in order to unlock card.2) There is a work-around for power limit, you will need to flash BIOS with high-power limit - Galax OC Lab 2000W works fine with card, Core voltage is up to 1.2V.-- If you want to ask or discuss, please comment below this thread, thanks for reading and lets all have fun with this card ! -- Edited February 16, 2020 by Slovak_Killer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Ximi Posted April 13, 2019 Share Posted April 13, 2019 I am reading the thread and clearly , thanks for you and very important info about MSI video card. I need unlock voltage with W up from Galax OC Lab 2000W or NDA MSI. Can you contact me at PM. I am from EU and support its only public and very bit little. Thanks for support Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for support Galax NVVDD wont work with Lightning and you need custom Afterburner for voltage tweaking which even I dont have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Ximi Posted April 13, 2019 Share Posted April 13, 2019 (edited) Thanks friend , and Bios you has , can you send me PM ? I have until software public , but with good bios can up clocks very well. The MSI AB unlock voltages Auxiliars on my actual Bios LN2.

Nicho551 Posted October 9, 2019 Share Posted October 9, 2019 Can I flash this bios on my Trio X Gaming? The 406W Bios doesn´t use more than 360W... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Ximi Posted October 10, 2019 Share Posted October 10, 2019 Can you bricked your video card, the msi Gaming uses two conectors and LZ uses three conectors for power suply Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicho551 Posted October 10, 2019 Share Posted October 10, 2019 Trio is 2 x 8 Pin + 1 x 6 Pin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Ximi Posted October 10, 2019 Share Posted October 10, 2019 Then try it but under your responsability ..... The LZ uses 3 from 8 pins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi, what did you solve? and how did you solve it ? I'm trying to get pass the powerlimits of the MSI LN2 bios. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iamturbo Posted December 10, 2019 Share Posted December 10, 2019 It’s not so much solved but I tried a couple other bios to see how they work. Honestly the galax HOF 450w is the best bios I’ve used for nothing extreme. I run the kingpin XOC but wouldn’t recommend for normal water cooling because at ambient Water temps of 21-25c I got same performance as galax HOF 450w bios. But on 3-10c water temp it’s a modest difference in benchmark scores of 1000+ points. min not using an msi 2080ti, I have a Aorus waterforce extreme spirit your results will very based off of silicon quality and vrm design Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Ximi Posted December 11, 2019 Share Posted December 11, 2019 The card Galax has 2 Bios , 120 power and 150 power. Try its bios. Up the power limits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you, pm me please. Hi i have the same Card and the same problem. Did you manage to solve the problem? or can anybody help with this? The best thing would be the following: Power Limit: Unlimited | Overvoltage: Yes (up to 1.125V) | Voltage/Frequency Curve Editor: Enabled | 2D Clocks: Core (Yes) / Memory (Yes) | Fan Adjustable: Yes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kamueone Posted February 14, 2020 Share Posted February 14, 2020 (edited) never mind i found it. https://www.techpowerup.com/vgabios/216553/galaxy-rtx2080ti-11264-181010 my bad. sry. I will try flashing it and will give feedback Edit: tried but: XUSB FW component of the input GPU firmware image is imcompatible its like the firmware image is too new, to flash this one. if anybody have some suggestions it would be great.

Your card is probably newer one, the firmware on your card is too "new" for this bios so bad luck for u, u cant use galax bios. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Ximi Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 There are some Bios from Galax : Its a good one : https://www.techpowerup.com/vgabios/204869/galax-rtx2080ti-11264-180927 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LasseK1981 Posted February 19, 2020 Share Posted February 19, 2020 Hello all. I have downloaded and tried a lot of bios from here and I am unable to get the 1.2 v core.. I tried the XOC pack and replaced the afterburner file with no luck.. the best I can do is the Kingpin bios which allows 1.125 volt.. But the Classified tool seems to no respond to the card no matter what settings? I have a FE 2080 Ti .... is there ANY way I can get the 1.2 volt core?

LasseK1981 Posted February 19, 2020 Share Posted February 19, 2020 When I use the XOC pack and 3rd part y file the voltage is greyed out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I mentioned its only for MP2888A based RTX Lightning which u dont have, no i cant provide voltage support for FE card Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Ximi Posted February 21, 2020 Share Posted February 21, 2020 FE has another chip for regulation voltage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
