So had a play around with my 2080ti
Power goes to 108%
Does have an effect when change from 100%
But unlocking the voltage slider and changing voltage
Has no effect
Won't go past 1.043v annoyingly
Board power hits 280w at 108%

Overclocked core to 2050mhz
Overclocked vram shows in gpuz was 1750mhz now 2000mhz
Or 7000 now 8000 in xtreme tuner
Probably a little bit left to go but I just did
A very quick overclock

Gpuz perf cap is for power and vrel

So it does overclock at least
So question is
Will flashing another bios really make much difference?
If that voltage would actually go to even 1.1v
Then would probably be happy with it as is

If so
Not done this in ages
Better to flash in windows?
Or in dos?

@Audioboxer
This is my card

KFA2 GeForce® RTX 2080Ti EX (1-Click OC) - GeForce RTX™ 20 Series - Graphics Card

This is bios I am eyeing up

KFA2 RTX 2080 Ti VBIOS

That BIOS should flash with regular nvflash from the techpowerup site.

Just command line flash with nvflash64.exe -6 abovebiosromname.rom

www.techpowerup.com

NVIDIA NVFlash 5.867 Download

NVIDIA NVFlash is used to flash the graphics card BIOS on Blackwell, Ada, Ampere, Turing, Pascal and all older NVIDIA cards. NVFlash supports BIOS

Here is some guide info you might need to do protectoff command first https://itigic.com/nvflash-how-to-flash-a-bios-on-an-nvidia-graphics-card/

thanks mate
did you do yours in windows?
or in dos?
must be showing my age that i prefer dos lol
 
Anyone done this on a FE 4090 to tune the voltage somewhat? We're voltage limited rather than power limit i think with it having the connector.
 
@Audioboxer
or anyone else really
pretty sure this is what happened ages ago
when i tried this before
click picture for bigger image
tried the non mismatched version of nvflash first
so screenshot is of the patched mismatch version i tried second

You can try the tool I posted then and flash in same way and it will allow bypass of mismatch (nvflash64k.exe -6 romname.rom). Alternatively, it's just browsing techpowerup for a BIOS that will flash at a better power rate than your current if you don't want to force mismatch flash.

I'm assuming this card of yours doesn't have dual BIOS?

Did you unlock the card? Might need to do the protect off command

Although not widely used by the average user, a BIOS change on a GPU can fix problems, improve performance, loudness, or even temperatures. Depending on the parameters of it, one or the other will be modified, but in the case of performance, normally when manufacturers launch several models with...
