@EVGA_JacobF
Will a version of this BIOS be made available for my LHR 3080 FTW3 Ultra? I'm feeling a little left out here...

Jacob at EVGA just pointed me to where the new biosis were for the LHR cards and I was able to update mine. But yeah the most I’ve seen it draw is 414 watts so far.
Care to share a link? I can't seem to find it.

Update 4/2 - Updated to the Resizable Bar Versions
Due to many users request, have a new BIOS that increases the maximum Power Target. This BIOS is only intended for the extreme overclocking user and does not have any other changes. Please note the following:
- This update will increase the power consumption while overclocking, and is recommended you have adequate cooling and power (850w+ Gold minimum) when using this.
- EVGA does not guarantee any performance increase or overclock while using this BIOS update.
Any other questions or concerns will be answered in this forum thread only. Please post below your results and feedback!
BIOS Instructions (Windows Installation):
- Download the correct .zip file below for your graphics card below.
- Extract the files to a location on disk.
- Make sure no programs are running in the background, and double click Update.exe
- Press "Y" to begin the update.
- DO NOT TURN OFF POWER OR RESET DURING THE UPDATE PROCESS!

- EVGA GeForce RTX 3080 FTW3 – ) |
- EVGA GeForce RTX 3080 FTW3 HYBRID - |
NOTE: There are 2 BIOS's, one is for the BIOS when switched to the normal stock position, the other if switched to the OC position
If you wish to go back to the Default BIOS you can find them below:
EVGA GeForce RTX 3080 FTW3 ULTRA Default BIOS -
EVGA GeForce RTX 3080 FTW3 Default BIOS -
EVGA GeForce RTX 3080 FTW3 HYBRID Default BIOS -
Apparently, I can't update my GPU BIOS to this because this is written for Non-LHR? And mine is LHR?

No display adapters were found that are compatible with this update.
My current BIOS Version is 94.02.71.40.AA. Please advise thank you

Hello. I updated my EVGA 3080 FTW3 Ultra Gaming card's bios to the OC one. Now, I see in Precision X1 that the power limit can be increased up to 118%. If I leave all the settings to stock settings (i.e. 100% power limit, 85° GPU Temp, Clocks to "0"), am I right to assume the BIOS doesn't change anything except for the fans to run above 1000 RPM all the time ? In other words, if I do not do any change in an overclocking software such as precision X1 or Afterburner, doing this OC Bios won't increase power draw, voltage or anything else (just the fans RPM). If so, is it ok to uninstall Precision X1? And maybe use Afterburner (just for the OSD and FPS frame limiter ; no OC intended). EDIT : Also, was I supposed to hit any button on my graphic card ? I read that there might be a button near PCI-E ports. The only thing I did was double clicking the file and press Y. EDIT 2 : Do I need to be running Precision X1 to have the benefits of Re-size BAR, or do I always have them, whether I have Precision X1 or not ?

What is your part number ? Mine is : 10G-P5-3897-KR If yours end with KL, that means your GPU is a LHR version -> I don't think the OC Bios is available for your card for now.

Hi, can you please explain the difference between 'normal' and 'Default' VBIOS. Is 'Default' the 380 wattage version? I have now the 'Default' BIOS: 94.02.42.80.1. Which is this exactly? I would like the BIOS version with as little wattage as possible. Would be nice adding the BIOS version numbers.

Hi,
can you please explain the difference between 'normal' and 'Default' VBIOS.
I have now 'Default': 94.02.42.80.16
I would like the BIOS with as little wattage as possible.
I'm no specialist but this is what I figured out : There is a physical BIOS switch on our cards, basically it's just a memory slot. I ended up putting back the stock BIOS (94.02.42.80.16) in the stock switch position and put the physical switch to the OC BIOS. It's already up to date (94.02.42.80.31) so we don't even have to follow the steps of the guide. I think the OC BIOS just changes the default fan profile so the fans spin at ~1090 RPM minimum instead of 0 RPM minimum. This is nice because Precision X1 stops following custom curve at some point. Now I can enjoy this GPU without worrying about fans doing weird stuff because of a software. Also, the OC BIOS allows you to change the GPU maximum power to 118%. Now, I'm not sure about the following but if you want to use less wattage, you can already do it without the OC BIOS : reduce GPU power limit or decrease voltage and stuff in PX1 or Afterburner... EDIT : I'm not even overclocking my GPU as I'm ok with the temps and fan noise. Running the GPU at100% for about 10 minutes gives me a max power usage of 325W according to CPUID HWMonitor.

I have an LHR 3080 FTW3 on the way from the evga queue, and from what I gather, the LHR cards aren't supported with this bios? Is that something we can expect eventually? Or is this bios already included with those newer cards?

Look at the model #. If it is 10G-P5-3897-KL "KL" means it's the light hashrate version.

If the LHR versions are physically same as the latest non LHR FTW3 Ultra, even if you could flash a higher wattage bios, you'll find power limit in ~400w (sometimes less than 400). No big difference between stock and "oc" bios.

I just mentioned above that my lhr card is happy to pull 430-440w.

So what you are telling me @coresare is that if my model number ends in a KL it is the LHR version?

I used this bios and updated a 3080Ti FTW3 Ultra card on the OC bios. One night I was playing Battlefront 2 in Heroes Vs Villains and the image on screen froze. So I tried to recover and close the game, get back to the desktop, tried everything so in the end had to hold the power button down. Once I turned the PC back on I no longer had video over display port which this update initially fixed. Contacted EVGA and had this card RMA'd. Just today I received the replacement card and now I can't even get video drivers to install, so I can then update the vbios. The card is not detected at all. In the future I hope EVGA makes sure display port works out of the box.

Correct bios used? Disable fast boot in windows when updating?

It's been 8 years since I've built a new PC. This is also the first time I've purchased an entire PC and built it myself. In the past I always built for myself but always used old parts as well. Then would from time to time upgrade the video card. A lot has changed, also a lot has stayed the same. All I remember is using HDMI to get into bios and windows, and then installing drivers and updating the vbios. Now for some reason this isn't working for me. I believe this is the correct vbios. I used OC bios switch first time around and updated the OC vbios. This fixed being able to see BIOS and Windows on Display Port. This time I'm attempting to just use the normal vbios but unable to install drivers so I can't update the vbvios. Device Manager isn't detecting the card. GPUZ only shows integrated graphics. The GPU so far isn't being detected at all. Also I don't have fast boot enabled as far as I know. I still see the normal text startup listing all hardware connected before Windows starts up.

Need to go here and read first page carefully. You are describing similar issues with wrong bios or fast boot enabled during bios update. Windows not detecting the card. https://forums.evga.com/E...S-Thread-m3407542.aspx

Okay also I think I should add after RMA'ing my first 3080Ti, I installed my old 1080Ti. Everything worked fine on the 1080Ti.
Upon getting the 3080Ti today, first I went to safe mode used the latest DDU and ran Clean + Shutdown. Then installed the 3080Ti. This I think would qualify as major change, right?
