GTX 465 unlocked to 470, incorrect specs. - Page 2

post #11 of 18
Since when has 70C on a 400 series been a problem? Id's say it's cold.

Yeah, 400-series cards are fine up like 95C.

Since you know you have the 10 chips, I would do this:
1) Grab a generic PNY GTX470 bios from TechPowerUp bios database
2) Grab nvflash, and make yourself a bootable USB stick, and put the bios and nvflash on it
3) Uninstall your current drivers via the control panel, and start up in DOS mode.
4) Follow any of the many available guides to using nvflash to update your card's bios
5) Restart and re-install drivers.

Your GPU-Z should look just the GPU-Z in the below screenshot, aside from the brand and such:

I'll give it a shot, but does anyone have an actual working guide on how to setup a bootable USB for nvflash? I've tried like 3 different websites with different boot files and nothing seems to work. By the way, there shouldn't be a problem trying to do it with a 16GB flash drive as long as it's FAT32, right?

Finally got it to flash with a different BIOS, but I'm still at 1024mb which sucks. Oh well, still have the 448 cores so it's all good.

You should not end up with 1024MB if you have all 10 chips, I've never heard of that happening. Did the flash actually work (does the brand match in GPU-Z with the brand of the bios you used, etc ... )? You may want to try it again and use the nvflash command(s) that remove ALL protections prior to flashing, cause 10 chips means you have 1280MB of vram, so if the flash works 100%, you should get a 1280MB reading for sure ... so I'm thinking it must be only a partial flash due to some protection that wasn't overridden headscratch.gif

I'm betting who ever flashed it did the method meant for cards with 8 ram chips and the unlockable core. After he flashes his card it should be all good.


oh NVM didn't see he already reflashed it already. Sucks man, there should be no reason for the extra ram not to be working. Extremely weird case.

For subvendor it says NVIDIA (10DE). The BIOS version is the same as it showed up during the flash and I ran the force BIOS command when using nvflash.

I ended up using the BIOS from TechPowerUp because the one you sent me kept giving me an error about the file name needing to be in .ROM or .NVR format.

I really think there must be an additional nvflash command that you haven't used yet. I'd try the --protectoff command, prior to running it the normal way.

Yeah, it's worth a try. I'll report back after trying the protectoff command.
