I have the same issue with above, the card (FTW2) I just purchased contains 86.04.60.00.80 bios and default clock is 1251Mhz with the lower bandwidth.
Attempting to flash bios in any mode, safe mode included yields the error:
"ERROR: Failed to preserve Inforom BBO data due to vbios's IR does not contain the BBO placeholder."


Please assist, if this card is supposed to be able to use 11Ghz out of the box then I would like to use it as such.
 
Attached is GPU-Z.
 




I had the same issue.
The reason was that I used an old "update.exe" downloaded in past days.
You should try to download update.exe again.
The link is same. However the contents is different from past one.
MD5SUM of new "update.exe" is "70cc85e70bceb7e8dda56292318658c7".


 
But in archive no any file with name "update.exe". Just two Primary.exe and Secondary.exe and I have same issue with BBO. So what the solution?

Where to buy: amazon
original bios : 86.04.60.01.80

current bios : 86.04.3b.40.80

I have updated 1080 ftw2 bios on the following link.

However, the memory type can not be confirmed like the following picture,
I noticed that the performance of the graphics card dropped significantly.
This phenomenon occurs both in primary and secondary.
I used ddu to delete the driver and reinstall the related program, but the problem is not solved.
Installing original bios does not work.



what can I do?

Have you tried to flash the original vbios back with nvflash?

Hello.
 
I would like to apply this update, as I clearly am eligible for it having an older stock FTW2 card with 320GB/s memory, but it seems I have a bios revision that is incompatible with the supplied files.  If I apply either the "original" or "11Ghz" files, memory type in GPU-Z goes to "Unknown" and I can't clock memory above 405Mhz.
 
Luckily, I kept a backup of the primary bios on the cards dual bios function, which saved me from being basically ruined in gaming, but you probably want to fix this.
 
GPU-Z of my card and bios revision (this is the primary bios that came with the card):
 



Same Problem here with my EVGA GTX 1080 FTW2 . i stuck with the 86.04.3B.40.81 Primary bios and i cant clock memory above 405.Gpu clock is at 5505 at gpuz.I also tried to flash back to original bios(86.04.3B.40.80) but same problem. Gpu clock at gpuz is at 5005Mhz but cant go above 405.
Card came with 86.04.60.00.80 out of the box today.
 Any solution??

Sorry if this seems like a dumb question, but how do I know if my card is functioning with 11GHz memory?

Open precision xoc and enable kboost. Memory clock should read 5508.

i tried to flash this bios in my ftw2 with nvflash.."Id missing error" and i cant find a way to force bios flash.
I saw that the Subsystem Id for this bios is 3842 6687.My ftw2 bios has Subsystem id 3842 6686.
Any ideas?
