I am trying to overclock a few server/workstation cards from nvidia.
Namely the grid K1 and the tesla M10 , both are 4 gpu's on one card.
As soon as i apply the settings for the gpu speed , the settings are ignored and everything is put back to stock.
With the m10 i can lower powertarget without any problem and the card then also works slower.

The grid K1 is on w10 with latest 370.41 whql driver
For the m10 i need to use windows server 2012 with 376.84 driver ( only working windows driver i have found so far )
What could be the problem and how can this be solved?

@RJGamesAhoy , @FzR dontdie x

Did you have to change a certain setting in 370.41 driver or in afterburner to be able to overclock the grid K1 or grid K340?

I've been trying since 2021 😅 I've already tried to mod the bios myself but that was my first card that I destroyed and there have been more followed for unknown reasons.

i can try and dump the vbios from my grid that i OCed on, but honestly it just kinda worked for me and i didnt have to do anything crazy, just loaded drivers and loaded an appropriately old MSI afterburner

Thanks for replay.

With the M10

I have tried several old AfterBurner versions ( AB1.5 ex , AB moa ,AB2 ex , AB 1.51, gpu tweak III )

Whit the K1 I have tried some old versions but i don't know which

Over the years of trying with the grid K1 I have already destroyed 1 card with a bios mod :)

Does the HWBot one work ?

MSIAfterburnerSetup411HWBOT.exe

Just tried with the M10 on win server 2012.

But unfortunately this version does not work either, just like the 2.2.3 version

On guru3d they advised to check if coolbit was enabled properly.

But even with this nothing changes whit the M10
