I installed the new v1.18 of XC1 which did a firmware update on my Kingpin 3090. Went to enable resize bar however it is saying my vbios needs to be updated, which you can update via XC1. This then takes you to a like a nvdia dos prompt style screen. I chickened out updating haha. Is it safe on the Kingpin, or is it going to brick it or make the oled screen disappear?

    Just got it all up and running myself on my Kingpin. One thing i found out is i flashed mine to the normal bios and the new vbios changes it to 520w.

    but other than that it seems to work ok. I hit a new high on Port Royal and a few other benchmarks.

    cheers mate. Funny as I flashed mine in the standard 450w bios and it has been flashed with the 450w bios. odd! My power slider only goes to 105 but resize bar enabled

    Okay so switched it across to LN2 bios and then did the vbios update via XC1. It installed the 520w resizable bar bios.
