For the reference GTX 970?
I'm looking to increase the voltage limit on it for higher overclocks

    Ok so I managed to flash my card but I've ran into some issues
    First being I couldn't use any of the BIOS provided in the link so I had modify my card's BIOS to match the SCACX one in the link
    Second I tried run Heaven after the flash and it ran fine but crashed before I benchmarked. Middle Earth SoM did the same.

    But some good news is after disabling and enabling card in Device Manager, It seems to be working just fine.
    Folding with it at it's new default clocks and it doing a 10472 with a TPF of 9m44s

    Well, may be they do the same but rom files content is different.

    Also the BIOS from overclocker.net has file describing changes, Kingpin's does not.
    Any idea what exactly was changed in that edition. Comparing Kingpin's binary against stock rom, there are very few bytes that are different.
