When can we expect a power limit BIOS for the 2070 super Hybrid or any 2070 super?

I bought my 2070 Super hybrid a few months ago and I've been waiting on a BIOS update to raise the power limit from 112% to 130% to see if that helps stabilize a higher clocked OC. My card is running sub 60c before it becomes unstable and I know I could push further if I had more power. Any ideas when we could see one or is it never going to happen?

My janky duct fan has more CFM than your entire case! ;D

    I had been asking for this for my 2070 super XC ultra about a month or two ago, really hope it happens as my card gets less headroom than the reference card (as i checked the tdp of my card and the reference just to make sure the default wasnt higher on my card)

    Maybe if they get enough requests from onwers/members, they will release new vBIOS's.  I requested one for my 2080 Super XC Ultra with a higher power limit and a minimum fan speed of 20%.  I don't really care for the 0db thing.  I prefer the fans run at a minimum at all times when idle.  Even without fan control software.

    My 2080 has a power limit of 130. I don't see why the super doesn't. (2080 XC Ultra)

    I too would like to know, and also don't care about the 0db fan thing for my 2070S XC Ultra

    If you don't mind taking the risk then you could attempt to flash a ftw3 vbios to your card using nvflash. The ftw3 vbios will raise your power limit to 338w.
     
    And to remove the fear of bricking the card... https://www.overclock.net/forum/74-graphics-cards-general/1612108-brand-new-method-how-unbrick-flash-almost-any-card-amd-nvidia.html
