Seeing the panorama you have to give it balls to update the system

I downloaded the GPU-Z on the other computer, which I used the onboard video to be able to enter Windows. It recognizes the 3060 Ti, but does not identify which BIOS. I imagine it is corrupted, something like that.
 

 
Now I don't know if I can flash with the old or the new Bios. I don't have the new one. Anybody can help me?
 
edit:
 
on nvfash, my vga is listed too.
 

 
but I dont have the new vbios. Or I flash with old vbios?

I'd flash the old stock one for now. At least see if you can recover the thing.

I contacted EVGA support opening the ticket and the guidance I had was to wait for a response from Jacob. The problem is that if I do something and it goes wrong, the store where I bought the card will void the warranty. So I would have to wait. :(

From your knowledge, with the card being identified by Windows, there are chances of successful?
 
My fear now is to try something, not work and lose RMA :(

Thanks Jacob.
 
I got everything working fine and i already see the improvement in Assasin Valhalla however one small issue. The led on my 3080 Ultra hybrid started flicking very weird but i got it working again by linking then unlinking with other Leds
 

Thanks , also will this limit the KP to 450watts instead of 1000watts?

Probably. I think it just flashes the standard KP bios on with bar support.

Does this only flash one of the bios for the dual bios card?
 
Meaning if I mess up, I can flip the switch to the other bios and have it back to pre-resizable bar bios?

I'm seeing a warning about my motherboard (MSI B-550A PRO) when I load up Precision X1 but I think I already have all the correct settings enabled in my BIOS. I'm running with an MSI B-550A PRO, a Ryzen 5600X, and an EVGA 3080 FTW3 Ultra (Part Number 10G-P5-3897-KR) and I have enabled the "Re-Size BAR Support" and "Above 4G/Crypto Currency mining" settings on my BIOS. CSM also seems to be disabled.
 

 

 
I believe I have the latest non-beta BIOS (A50) for my B-550A PRO, am on driver 465.89, and Windows has no new updates.

If I'm reading this correctly, the BIOS downloads for this mobo list that my current version does have S.A.M. support enabled:
 
Has anyone here with this setup updated their VBIOS and have had no new issues? Am I missing any steps or updates?
 
Very hesitant to run the VBIOS upgrade with those warnings...

Which BIOS do you want for the Kingpin card?

1000w kingpin bios please.

Yes, it can only flash the currently selected VBIOS position. You have to physically move the switch to be able to flash the other VBIOS.

Hey Jacob,
Is there any solution to the problem for black screen with no signal after reboot?
My current VBIOS is 94.02.26.48.16 (on RTX 3090 FTW3 Ultra).
I am using the latest NVIDIA driver (465.89).
My motherboard is an Asrock Z390 Phantom Gaming-ITX/ac with their latest BIOS 4.40G (BETA BIOS which adds "Clever Access Memory").
I have disabled CSM and Ultra-fast boot, enabled above 4G decoding and enabled C.A.M.
I also enabled PCI-E Gen3 only. I tried on both AUTO and PCI-E Gen3.
 
 
I have tried to update the VBIOS using PX1 and also using the standalone .exe vbios updates which you've posted on your previous posts. I have 
tried to update both Normal and OC bios and all cases end up with a black screen and no signal. Can you suggest anything or do I have to re-install my whole windows and try again? I can't think of anything that I am missing and I am assuming that it might be that the BIOS of my MB is buggy and not compatible with the VBIOS. I am not sure what to do. I guess I will have to just not use resizable bar until those compatibility issues are resolved with BIOS/VBIOS updates. Besides, Asrock's BIOS is a bit old, from 24th Feb. 

Unfortunately for this one you likely will need to contact your MB manufacturer on it to see if they have an updated MB BIOS.

AsRock pulled all their beta bios because of this issue. No updates beyond that though.

Maybe a little off topic here and completely retarded, but where is the BIOS switch on a 3090 FTW3 XC Ultra? I have mine vertically mounted and frankly I'm afraid to tamper with it at all without a good idea what i'm doing considering its brand new...but I'd like to try the other BIOS update that was released.

I keep my old Z270 for Windows 7 use, so this particular update is impossible for me to even attempt until I decide to upgrade.

I also wanted to make sure this wasn't like the first BIOS update that will happen automatically if I update X1 or my NVIDIA driver, since I'd obviously have a serious problem lol.

One of the things I liked was the dual BIOS and I've never even located it. In my defense, I had to RMA my original brand new card so I was a bit pre-occupied heh.

What about the cards from the 3090oc special RMA?  Can we still update the bios as instructed?

Just a follow up, I took the plunge and hit the update button for my VBIOS. Everything seems to have worked out and I now see BAR enabled.

Hey guys.
 
I currently down a EVGA 3090 XC3 Ultra, Asus rog strix z490-i gaming. I have the latest Nvidia drivers and prior to that the latest bios files via Asus support site. Precision X allowed me to update and flash the card no problems. The issue I'm facing is the same as few others. 
 
Key notes:
1. CSM is disabled by default
2. Rebar and 4g encoding above are both auto and enabled respectively
3. Windows 10 is GPT and runnign UEFI
 
So those were the main requirements listed from ASUS and also what's recommended here. I've scoured bios settings to see what else I can change including what others have suggested here such as manually setting the card to PCI gen 3 but nothing really works. As soon as I have rebar set to auto the system will just refuse to boot with no POST whatsoever. I've been following ASUS forums as well but seems to have come up yet. Is this an issue I should talk to ASUS about or EVGA?
 
edit: update: also I'm experiencing artifacting on my screen now after the vbios flash.

My vBIOS will not update.
 
3080FTW3 screen stays black for 10+ minutes when I try to update the vBIOS in Precision X1. If I leave it that long, the PC freezes up and I had to hard reset the computer and reinstall the nvidia drivers. If I press a key within a few minutes the display comes back on and sometimes it says canceled by user. 
 
Gigabyte X570 motherboard with latest 33g bios and a 5900x.
CSM disabled, Resize BAR Auto, Above 4G on
 
Any ideas?? Thanks! 
 
EDIT: I tried performing the update with the BIOS switch in both positions. Same outcome.

Try pressing Y again after 30 to 45 seconds like someone else posted in this thread.

Thanks! That did it. I swear I tried to read all 11 pages and I didn't see any similar problems. I totally missed that. Thanks again!
 
EDIT: Now I have a new problem - Can't boot from USB stick (which I need to do regularly) with CSM support turned off. It's a Linux boot so I can't format it differently. What a PITA. LOL
