could someone post an image for his gtx 1070 ftw bios
 
INSTRUCTIONS
STEP 1: Download JoeDirt's latest NVFLASH (version 5.287). Extract it to C:\NVFLASH
http://www.overclock.net/...an-x/570#post_25209075
STEP 2: Open a command prompt as administrator. Change to your C: drive (type C: then enter). Then change to your NVFLASH folder (type CD \NVFLASH then enter).
STEP 3: Use NVFLASH to save the BIOS. type: NVFLASH --save GP104.rom

my oc has been horrible, only able to add 25 to core anything past that and is unstable. any ideas or did i just get a **** card

Download GPU-Z, click the little box on the right side that shows a file being extracted from a box, save bios.

Just a side note... I am very pleased with how quiet the fans are on the 1070 FTW versus the 970 FTW+; I can actually game with fans set to 100% and not annoy my TeamSpeak/in-game voip...
The only gripe I have so far is the representation of "White" with the RGB LED's, it's more blue than white...  I'll have to work on getting the right color mix to get as close to white as possible.
 
 


Yeah, it looks the same on the 1080. That's a problem that is inherent with using RGB LEDs to make white. It just takes one of the LEDs to be just slightly off from the optimal color temp and brightness to appear to have a color hue.
 
@axe41031 Do you have a 1070 now? Try using the OC scanner with Precision OCX. I got a few crashes with my 1080, but it gave me a good idea where to start with creating my own voltage curve.


Its not at all inherent if you can fix it yourself but setting it to light orange. They just are not configured accurately.

Hi, I have a BIOS for you, if you still need it, post here your public email, so I can send it to you - I cannot use PM.

He can still PM you with it so it isn't in the forum.  You just can't respond until you meet the requirements.

Is it normal to not even be able to hit +100 on a FTW card?  I can go +75 core (are you limited to increase in steps of 25?  80-95 wouldn't register properly after initially looking like it accepted it), +600 memory so far using 120% power and 75% voltage .  My temps stay in the 50 C or so range and the fans never go above 50%, is there any reason to be running fans higher when my temperature never gets close to the 75+ C?  Since my temperature is relatively low, I doubt water cooling would help much other than cooling the VRM better.
 
So do the ACX 3.0 or ACX 3.0 SC versions have to do more than +100 core boost to achieve 2100 Mhz core?  The GPU boost stuffs makes it difficult to know if my card was of an value or if I should have saved the $10-30 for the the regular ACX 3.0 version or SC ;p.  Do the non-FTW ACX 3.0 versions only light up white?  At least I can make my card red!

Does anyone know if the second bios on the gtx 1070 ftw allows you to add more voltage? All I'm hearing is it will increase your powerlimit (throttle limit) and fans can't drop below 20% even if manually controlled fan curve?
 
Thanks,

The frequency is growing only by steps of 25MHz. So when you add +75MHz and 0% voltage, then when it's under approximately 58C, it will run on higher voltage to achieve full frequency offset set by 25MHz-steps. But when it runs hotter, then voltage is being lowered down for example from 1081mV to 1050mV and according to that decrease of voltage, the frequency is being pulled down by 12MHz steps. - the lower voltage means less frequency by 12MHz steps.
 
This means, that if you can add only +75MHz frequency to the core, then you can try to set fans to 100% (to see full potential) and set voltage to 100%. The maximal voltage value reached when set on full 100%, will be offset in a V-T (voltage temperature) graph. So under 58C, it should show the full potential of increased frequency.
 
- you don't have to be afraid to add voltage, because it will never exceed the limits of the card, so will never damage it. Standard voltage on low temperatures could be 1093mV and when the card gets hotter, it is lowering the voltage to help it cool down - more voltage means more heat - more heat means less time of functionality, but that's not anything to worry about, because it is designed to run for maybe 15 years, so on very high temperatures all the time, it will still run for over 8 years, I suppose..
 
Still, if you set fans to 100%, then it could run at 1081mV stable all the time, so you will have stable higher frequency and the card will be still running on low temperatures, so it shouldn't decrease the lifetime of the card. Remember that the lifetime of the card is linked to the heat and not the voltage applied !
