UEFI is the new version of the old Bios menu. I have a UEFI board, it makes everything alot easier when overclocking/changing settings/boot priority etc. Most UEFI boards also have the old Bios menu option if you want to use it. Basically its a updated version of system bios.

The UEFI BIOS lets you use Win8 Secure Boot.

Received an email from support with what should be the UEFI version, but sure it's the same as the one I already had.  GPU-z shows vBIOS as 80.04.19.00.F2, is this correct?


Don't think that's right though we do have different cards. Mine is: 80.04.5C.00.F1

I emailed Jacob to see if I had been sent the wrong file.  Jacob was kind enough to explain that the file I had received was the latest for my card.  The BIOS just released was designed for use on boards fitted with Hynix memory which the 670SC 2GB doesn't.

You can use Winmerge to compare the files to see any differences in the data. http://winmerge.org/

I have the Gtx 670 Super Clock 2Gb card which is not listed on the first page of this thread. Does this mean I can't update the firmware?

Just logged to say that I'm finally able to cross de 1202+ MHz line. I couldn't even play 3-4 mins of 1202 Mhz without crashing immediately with a driver not responding, even if temps were staying around 70C and even less.
 
I'm hoping that it will stay this way!

That's great.  Wish I could say the same.  I have 1 card that will OC to 1280 stable while my 2nd card only to 1189.  As soon as I move up to that 1202 mark, crash...  And I've had at least 3 different bios revisions, maybe 4, I lost count.  All with the same result.
