Hitting the "The display adapter firmware is up to date." issue -- the card stays as an ftw3 ultra after trying to flash the hybrid bios..

• EVGA GeForce RTX 3090 FTW3 Ultra (24G-P5-3987-KR) [3090OC/ReBAR] (Normal is C005/OC is C002)

When I download this file, I noticed the names of the exe's start with 3982. Just curious if that was a type-o?
Thanks

No typo.  It's the correct BIOS if you have a Rev 1.0 PCB.

Thanks LeeM, took card out and found that mine is a rev 0.1 with black lips. I guess we'll see what they say...

$ 4898_OC_450W_ovu.exe --version gives me this:
 
BIOS Versions of NVIDIA display adapters present in system:
NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 (10DE,2216,3842,4897) S:00,B:0A,D:00,F:00 94.02.71.40.A9
 

I flashed my 3080 FTW3 Ultra to the XOC Hybrid after installing the hybrid kit. I have motherboard bios fast boot disabled. Even tried running DDU. I just get the firmware "up to date" message and nothing happens as others have reported. I have an AMD Ryzen 9 5900x and a Asus Crosshair VIII Hero if that's helpful.
 
I was able to try flashing the 4897 XOC bios and saw the actual progress bar and successful flash, but nothing happens with the XOC Hybrid file.
 
What's the difference between the 4897 XOC bios and the 4898 XOC Hybrid bios?
 
here is the "i" info after trying to flash the XOC Hybrid file in the attached file. After flashing the bios with 4897 XOC bios everything is the same except version is 94.02.71.40.A9

EVGA GeForce RTX 3090 FTW3 Ultra (24G-P5-3987-KR) I have such a video card, but it has an ekvb water block. what BIOS to set for the 500V mode? What BIOS needs to be installed, what would it be in os 500v mode?

As i know own a 3080 xc3 and put hybrid kit on it, is the hybrid bios flash worth it? Can i still up the powerlimit to 108%? (Like i can now with the old bios)

EVGATech_LeeM I can't sent pms yet but do you know roughly how quickly a new bios might come out to address users not able to flash their cards with with Hybrid XOC bios?

Hopefully, Monday.  It's been reproduced and confirmed.
