9800GX2 bios:

 

When I backup the BIOS on my card, PCB0 file size is 128KB, PCB1 is 58KB

 

There are 3 files available in the coldbug BIOS- two are marked as -1 and -2 at 58KB each and there is an "SLI" file at 128KB.... what is the purpose of the "leftover" file (-1)? If I try to flash it to PCB0, I get a "hierarchy mismatch"

 

:)

 

 

 

Update: LOL I started firing in nvflash commands and now I get a black screen when I should get desktop :P What's the flash order for these replacement files? :D

 

-i0 = 9GXSLI

-i1 = 9GX1

-i2 = 9GX2

 

Confirmed- the above is right :)

 

Edit 2: Ok, I made a total bobbins of that and I deserve a very slow round of applause for being a noob :D I had no idea the BR-04 was involved. Driver reinstall, some more nVFlash and everythings fine.... and flashed

For those who are going to part-take in the Gainward Phantom competition, here's the tools you need:

 

- Gainward GTX 580 Phantom coldslow BIOS: http://91.121.148.119/downloads/VGABIOS/580phantomcs.ROM

- OC Guide for Gainward GTX 580: http://91.121.148.119/downloads/PDF/OC_Guide_for_GW_GTX_580_2011-08-19.pdf

 

I added the coldslow bios to the opening post.

 

!! Disclaimer !! This info is only for those who know what they're doing. If you're on air cooling and don't know what you're doing, go away and don't download it. If you do it and you kill your card, it's your problem. If you try to get RMA and you don't get it, it's well-deserved. And no, neither HWBOT nor myself will buy a freaking new card, so don't even try to complain.

 

Have fun! :)

GPUTweak allows higher volts only if you flash GPUTweak.bat firmware on MATRIX!

The software will work on DCU II also but you will be limited to normal voltage limit (must edit BIOS for higher volts)

 

Good luck!

Hi Vega,

 

http://gathering.tweakers.net/forum/list_message/35529098#35529098

It is a Dutch thread.. Unfortunately I dont have a coldslow bios, so it still stops at +- -110 (then coldslow kicks in). But for the hardmod is the way to go, to get some extra oc headroom ;).

 

Legenda:

Red= OCP mod

Green = Pull to ground

Pink & BLue = Cb/cbb

 

By the way, this is for a MSI GTS 450 Cyclone 1GD5/OC
