So can this be used on the FTW Hybrid? Same number of power-phases, same base and boost clocks. Did iCX actually do anything different hardware-wise?

Flashed my 2 1080 FTW2's on the secondary bios. Had to reinstall the latest geforce drivers again as the windows video drivers kicked in I guess from moving the switches to secondary. Not sure but no big deal. Running the 11ghz for a week now and working great. Extra small kick in performance is nice!

nice thats what i been telling people after the flash you need to reinstall the drivers it picks the card up as a new card if your cross flashing cant just flash it and hope it just works instantly.

This bios update is for the GTX 1080 non ti version. All the 1080ti are standard with the faster memory. Hope you enjoy the new card! :)

Hi guys, I have the 1080 FTW2, I flashed the master bios a while ago, it's working great, so yesterday I also flashed the slave bios. I know that the slave bios should always keep the fan running, according to Precision XOC, the minimum fan speed is 16%, and at the fan curve adjustment page, there is a yellow dotted line at the 16% level for both GPU fan and power fan, but only the GPU fan keeps spinning at all times, the power fan speed still goes to zero according to my fan curve. Since on ICX cards, fans are controled separately, so is it by design that power fan should stop when temperature is good or something went wrong when I was flashing the BIOS? It's the first time I ever tried the slave BIOS, and in Precision XOC fan curve page, the yellow dotted line indicating the minimum fan speed is also there for power fan, so it's a bit confusing whether it should stop or always spinning above 16%. Thanks.

On a slightly varied version of this topic, I have a question for any of those who may have the DATA (or where I can see it). The EVGA FTW2 I believe is clocked faster than a regular 1080 and with this Bios a bit faster memory. I have been scouring the WEB for a comparison of the EVGA FTW2 (08G-P4-6686-KR) vs EVGA 1080 TI FTW3 or SC. Does anyone have some side by side comparisons, specifically FPS comparisons. All I find are 1080 vs 1080 TI which are fine but the FTWs are clocked higher than a standard 1080 (seen as much as 35% yes I know). I really want to know if its worth upgrading from my card (Since Step-up to the 1080 TI black is white LED only I would have to go another route). 5-10 FPS isn't worth it to me but if more than that.....well Thanks in advance.

I have a 1080 FTW2 part number 08G-P4-6686-KR. When I tried to the flash the supplied BIOS I get a device is incompatible message. GPU-Z reports my stock BIOS as 86.04.66.00.80 This card should be compatible, right? It's brand new. (or is this card already updated?)

Nope, seems it's designed this way, I've read that the FTW3 is also doing this, when using slave bios, only the GPU fan keeps spinning, the memory and power fans won't spin until reaching certain temp.

That vBios already has the update applied. If you notice on GPU-Z it states 352.3GB/s. That is all this vBios does for the "older cards". It boosts the memory speed. For example: You can also take the 1376mhz from the memory tab, multiply it by 4 and we get 5,504mhz. Which is the rated speed. So 5,504mhz x 2 = 11,008 Mhz :) for the 11GHz Bios Update..... Any newer cards purchased would more than likely already have this update applied unless it was old stock.

That is correct, they would have it. If you purchase one you can verify using GPU-Z. It is possible for the retailer to have older stock however.

I purchased the ftw2 new directly from Newegg as of this month and it still had the older .80 bios on it. Guessing stock isn't cycling that quickly.
