Which 6800gt Leadtek bios?

Dont install any bios, keep the original thats the best one for the card, if you want to overclock just change the original bios and change it there, dont change to ultra bios as the memory timings are completly different + it uses 1.4v which some gt's cant handle (like mine, even though my nu managed it fine :< ) and you'll end up frying something on your card.
But I would recommend trying to voltmod original bios to 1.4V and see if its stable, if it is then you can overclock a hell of a lot further, if it isnt then change it back straight away, keep an eye on temps.

yup just make a copy and backup of you're current bios then make the changes to the copy (keeping the backup safe from harm) and go from there.Vegeta said:
far better to use a version off the bios the card currently runs than someone elses imho.
Yep, the new bios's are only there because leadtek might have changed something in the newer 6800gt's and needed to change something in the bios, it will do nothing to your card performance wise, more likely to do harm although I did try flashing mine and saw no increase or decrease in anything.
