BIOS modding for GPU OC fun and profit!!

[lamer01]

i am a little confused. The latest bios for the i7+5730 XPS16 is A12. Why is the modded bios based on A09?

Thx

It is not. It is based on the A12 system BIOS, but it includes the 4670 video BIOS from A09, as it works better for 4670 users than the A12 video BIOS does (higher thermal limit). For the 5730, everything is A12.

So, all of the ones listed on the 1st post (copied below) are applicable to a 1645 with 5730?

Mild overclock:
1645_A12_unlocked_5730_725_900-4670_750_900_A09.zip

Custom overclocks:
1645_A12_unlocked_4670_A09_800_1000.zip
1645_A12_unlocked_4670_a09_780_940.zip

uhh, i flashed the "A-10 1647 mild clock" perfectly, but it still has the gpu 84c throttle limit. can you use the a-07 bios with the same mild clocks cuz i know that that bios doesn't have a gpu throttle limit.

also, does the bios menu allow you to change the gpu temp limit or disable it?

I hadn't had anybody complain yet of GPU throttling with the 1647. If you're experiencing problems with a 4670, I can use the A07 vBIOS (the same as the 1645 A09) instead. That only applies to the 4670 though. Also, it does still have a limit, it was just raised to 95C instead of 84C.

Alright, thanks.

I have yet to make any progress, and I have a lot going on this week so I'm short on time to play around with it. I might have to wait until a newer version of NiBiTor comes out that recognizes the BIOS. I'll check back in a week and let you know, but don't expect much before then, sorry. I just wanted to let you know in case you're still waiting.

well i guess im the first thats complained about it xD. so yes please, can you make a A07 vbios with the same mild clocks and bios menu? i would really appreciate it thank you and yes i have a 4670

Hey Seeker,

I've been following this thread for a while now, thought i'd tell you that I really loved the way the whole thing was explained, made over-clocking reaallly easy!
Thanks alot for that.

Right now i'm running Ocd at the Mild clocks, and was wondering if you could make one similar to yours, maybe 800/1000 with all the intermediate steps.

My temps never exceed 85C, I dono why, I was expecting them to soar waay above that, but guess it's a good thing

Also, I was wondering what kind of a performance boost does the overclock actually deliver in games?
personally I didn't noticed much difference in my games with the mild over-clock. Do you guys even over-clock for gaming? or just for the thrill?
I'd like to see my games run faster, thats all


Oh great, i'm new to the forum, and expected that info thing to come attached..
well anyway I have a 5730.
So please try to make the Bios

Thanks

I've a few issues with 800/900mhz bios in cod4, only in cod4....
BC2, NFSHP, L4D2, LoL and black ops runs fine, but I've black screen when playing cod4 (after a few hours..)

Can you seeker made another bios for me? Like this...

100 250 0.9
100 250 0.9
100 250 0.9
100 250 0.9
100 250 0.9
100 250 0.9

Thank you very much
