Nvidia Re-Size Bar/SAM support is live for some cards, more in March - 10% performance gains

So, I just ran a game with current "correct" settings applied for BAR to work.

Thankfully doesn't seem to be a performance drop.

Seriously, what a joke of an update.

I don't want to update my bios again and change all my settings!

I'm going to leave it as it is for a while until I can be bothered with it.

My bios version says it supports rebar but it obviously doesn't. I've been so careful to follow the steps properly, yes apart from the very very latest bios!

Why do you need to change your settings, export up to USB and then flash bios and then import back in.

Im abit hesitant due to my cpu and board not being listed even though i've already updated the bios Z390 board with the ReBar enabled. But seen a lot of people with non supported cpus and boards running into issues....

It will be fine once you update your card with the now right update, once updated you can still turn it off if you want in the motherboard bios too, by turning off ReBar and 4G. It works fine now, I flashed 4 cards Palit GameRocks today with zero issues.

You also need to be on the latest Nvidia drivers thaat came out other day too for ReBar to work. Yes many motherboard BIOS with so called ReBar don't work unless you update to their latest ones that they have clearly fixed, many of the motherboard makers are telling people to update their bios even if they have one with a so called ReBar feature.

Yep, seems I have everything apart from very latest bios checked. It's just such a ball ache. lol
 
Setting in Bios for 4G and Rebar Enabled?

Are you on UEFI install and CSM (Legacy) disabled and Windows is formatted for GPT not MBR?
 
yep i've checked c drive is gpt for sure.

The only setting I see is one of my drives is showing as MBR but it's not the C drive.

Literally out of ideas. Do you reckon that drive is messing things up? In bios its not set to boot from that or anything.

It is split into 2 viewable partitions.

Recovery Partition and EFI System Partition.

Anyone who knows anything about that got a clue?

Edit: just noticed on the C drive, even though it is GPT for sure, it has a recovery partition too and doesn't say NTFS next to it.

Other than that it's all GPT.

I've done everything else properly.

Only your boot drive needs to be GPT, rest of your drives can be MBR or GPT. Aslong as windows is on a GPT drive with UEFI enabled in the Motherboard BIOS all is right aslong as again if you have ReBar and 4G Decode enabled too on the motherboard.

Then I have done all that. So, not working.

Tried re-install of nvidia latest driver.

Contact your motherboard maker with the BIOS version you are on and with the model name and number of your motherboard. Must be the motherboard BIOS if you updated the GPU driver right and have the latest Nvidia drivers.
 
Are you sure the GPU flash went through (going by what you said before)?

The Vendors Bios will remain the same build, it only updates part of it like the DP 1.4 Firmware did for older cards.

I do not think Windows is to blame, it worked long ago on AMD on Haswell with Windows.
