Use the X1 1.1.8 he linked above and the current driver apparently enables it, X1 will update your bios to the resizeable BAR one :)

I don't get it. 
I thought X1 isn't supposed to update your bios, it only applies firmware updates.

Interesting you say that, which link are you referring to? Probably should wait for an official release as I didn't know X1 updated gpu bios at all.

Thanks, I saw this link but I'm just curious how this person obtained the link and why it's not on the official website or even announced by Jacob or anyone who works for EVGA.

Well it is from the official Evga website, maybe it hasn't been listed yet, takes web admins time to post it.
Figured someone just grabbed the 1.1.7.0 download link and changed it to 8, seen that done many times.

But it is working.

Somehow your link has those 3 dots in the middle.
I assume you mean this one?
https://www.evga.com/EVGA/GeneralDownloading.aspx?file=EVGA_Precision_X1_1.1.8.0.zip
 
So the new version does include vBIOS update.
Not sure how it deals vBIOS slots so I haven't updated yet.

still, what if there is a last minute bug and they skip that version. you mess up that gpu using that and kiss your rma goodbye as all they proof they need is right here. you do you though.

Yeah, fixed, don't know what happened there.
I'd figure if you have a dual BIOS you'd have to individual switch BIOS's to update each of them.

Well actually it's a official EVGA XC3 bios on the card, I don't deal with EVGA directly for RMA, in Australia it's handled by the retailer, I'd highly doubt EVGA will have that BIOS update out in the wild if they are black listing it.
If they do release a 1.1.9.0 version in the next few hours we'd be updating to that anyway.

You mean bye RMA because of a vbios ? I mean, as long as you have one original bios, it doesn't matter at all.

no, i mean if the bios messes up your card and kills it. original or 2 bios dont mean much if your card is dead.

Guess myself and the others on other forums were lucky, man you'd have to have bad luck for that to happen where you can't flash back to the original vbios.

Then you are still able to RMA it.

I lied, last post about it. from the EVGA warranty page.

There's definitely no 1.1.9.0 version, so I'd say the 1.1.8.0 is the release, just web admins take their sweet time

Works perfectly. Just have overseen the extra tab with rebar to update. I thought the update after launching PX1 was enough. Thanks EVGA

I assume you can just disable it through mb bios if not a happy camper.  No harm no foul.


Indeed, however with Nvidia there's is no need. They have pre tested games and re bar is only applied on a per game basis (kind of like sli profiles, rebar has profiles too). So only games that benefit from it will have it enabled (regardless if the driver or GPUz says it's "enabled" that's just if your system is capable).

IMHO it's a better solution than AMDs that has it enabled all the time, to the point that some games don't benefit or even see regression of performance.

Just my 2 cents.


Thx Mate, very good info👍
