So evga are releasing cards with bad firmware on them? ive just spent 400 gbp on an evga 670 sc 4gb. Im not messing with the firmware to fix issues that shouldnt be there in the first place. Crysis 2 also goes black screen for me if theres any overclock on whatsoever. Without an overclock no black screen. Im really disappointed in evga. Not only can i not overclock my card, but i didnt get the free game which i would have expected. Then theres a terrible coolers evga are putting on them. Really poor quality for the price.
Just checked what firmware im on and its. 80.04.19.00.70.... Is this old? and is there known problems?
Re the firmware, nothing's perfect and if something better than an older version comes out I'm all for improvements. I admit it, I haven't had any luck overclocking my 670 FTW but I'm more than happy with its 1006MHz clock and the 1920x1200 frame rates I'm getting within BF3 etc. so all's good. I did have the RSoD going on last week but that was after me messing around trying some strong overclocks so it might have been me that caused the probs with numerous system lockups?
I got duped when I bought my 670 FTW...the sales guys assured me there was a coupon for Borderlands 2 inside the box when I was buying the card. By the time I got back to them saying 'Hey where's the coupon?' I got the reply oh that graphics card doesn't qualify...errrr yeah he said and we've run out of coupons...
I feel like I've been rolled by a playing card trickster. UK supplier's name in question supplied to those who ask by PM. It's no big deal I suppose, just that it soured the purchase of a superbly powerful graphics card that I'd been looking forwards to buying for some time.
