Does EVGA provide UEFI bios updates for the GTX 660?
I really need one.
Thanks,
Shane

Thanks for stopping by.
I didn't actually buy the GPU yet. I will buy it if I know there will be a UEFI update for the GPU bios, and that is compatible with my PC.
The GPU I'm looking for is the EVGA SuperClocked 02G-P4-2662-KR. As for my PC I have a Dell XPS 8700, with Windows 8.1 as OS.

One other question. How would you download the BIOS Update for the GTX 660? Would you have to update it through the old GPU?

@ Patroy - The UEFI bios update is for windows 8 and Secure Boot. This update has no effect on Ultra Fast Boot. @ ShaneShadow - You would need to boot up your motherboard in legacy mode or just boot into windows without seeing the bios screen in order to flash the card once the OS is up and running with the GTX 660 not the old GPU.

So you need to boot windows in legacy boot mode with the GTX 660 installed. Then install the bios update, then once that Is done, you go back to the bios and turn on UEFI again.
Is that right?

So sorry it cut off, I'm on my phone.
So anyways, just update your bios if it fixes some problems. If your bios is perfectly fine, don't update it. I recently had a issue when I update my bios, which eventually needed replacing of my motherboard. If you think it's good for you, then update it. If everything is running smoothly and fine, then leave it.

Gabriel. I was looking at other models of the GTX 660. Do you know if there is a UEFI Bios update for the EVGA GeForce GTX 660 3GB FTW Signature 2 P/N: 03G-P4-2667-KR. Actually, can you give me a list of which GTX 660 models don't have a UEFI Bios update for Windows 8.1, so I don't have to keep bothering you about which cards have a UEFI update and which don't. Thanks, Shane
