Ok ty, one last question. Does this step also apply to me if I'm just wanting to install latest firmware that precision x1 wants to upgrade me to?
 
PSA#2: DISABLE CSM IN YOUR MOTHERBOARD BIOS BEFORE FLASHING A REBAR BIOS.
I'm not sure if I need to have rebar on or not, and I'm not sure if the precision x1 update firmware includes this or is considered this.
 
ps. I'm so sorry for being an idiot, but I really don't want to brick my new card, but I'm guessing the newest firmware updates even for my KR will help with stability correct? 
Thank You for the fast response.

The BIOS on your card already has the Resizable BAR function enabled on it.  What you're updating is the firmware.  If you're getting picture now, you should be fine after the update.
 
The firmware update is mostly to keep the card in-line with PX1 for fan performance and RGB.  Generally, performance shouldn't be directly impacted by updating the firmware.

Ok, so you are saying I don't have to worry about this step then?

Ok thanks, I'll just disable fast boot, and make sure no monitoring programs are installed.

Okay I did exactly that, after reboot I made sure everything was disabled ran precision x1 I let it do it's thing, and it said finished you can hit close, but I went to info and used gpuz and my bios is the exact same number 94.02.42.80.16. Why didn't it update my firmware? 
 
Edit: Maybe I got it confused, Bios version maybe isn't supposed to change, in px1 it says my firmware is 2.01.22 can you confirm if this is correct? Ty and again I'm so sorry for troubling you

Does anyone on here have a helpful hint on getting board power draw to increase? I have a 3090 FTW3 Ultra on water with the EK active backplate and it'll max at 48 degrees during a superposition benchmark and the clock speeds just stay around the low 1900s and will dip down to high 1800s. I've tried drivers, and my BIOS version on the card is 94.02.42.80.27. I'm at such a loss here, any help is appreciated.

Kp 520watt bios would help.

It’s just weird because the target on my bios says 420 watt and a max of 450. I don’t understand why a higher watt would make a difference if it isn’t even getting to where it should be in the first place?
