EVGA 570 SC Bios Update

Thread Starter 
Been having many issues with my cards crashing when used in SLI. After noticing that my cards bios numbers differ, I figured it would be worth a shot to update both to see if it's what's causing the crashing...

553

*EDIT:*
I wanted to clarify my question a bit...I found a link to the latest firmware update, but I'm confused as to the best way of installing it. Can I just run the "update.exe" file with both cards installed or should only one card be installed at a time?

Or

I also have the option to run Nvflash (don't know which is the latest version or where to find it) that supposedly will update the firmware.

Thanks for the help!

The 570 bios updates generally all just increased the vcore for stability. Up by a slight 0.25mv. I believe you could try that out with Afterburner beforehand to see if it makes any difference.

Can't speak for that brand, but when I updated my MSI I think it asks you which card to update.

I have already attempted manipulating the voltage using MSI-AB to no avail, but I think before I attempt the bios update I want to rule out a few other things. I've been hearing horror stories from people who have bricked cards due to a bios update.
