As said, but you can force the ID with nvflash. No reason this wont work on any GT.

As said where, nobody mentioned it before in this thread.

Probably will work but I would rather use proper bios incase their cards cant handle speed or Timings, there is nothing that great about the update is there.

I was referring to the potential ID mismatch.

I've flash against the ID many times, no big deal.

Thousands of bios here. http://www.mvktech.net/

I know the site and how to flash TY.

I'm sure you do, I wasn't posting info just for you. Often times EVGA release a bios long before the others, if the others ever update. As you say make a blind flash disk if you don't have a PCI graphics to hand.

I thought people are having troubles with the stock fan speeds getting stuck at 29%?
