Does flashing bios void your warranty? I would assume so. Probably not a great idea with a 2080 Ti at this point with the relatively frequent card deaths.


Not as long as you're able to restore the vbios to original condition before sending it in.


A big risk with these dying 2080 ti's I wouldn't risk it. Specially for just a few extra mhz.

I cannot get this to flash no matter what I try. I have scoured the web looking for answers. Any ideas?

I am getting closer?
 
All of the BIOS for 2080 ti that I can find are 007E and my card is 0050. Is it possible to flash from 0050 to 007E?

Usually, if it doesn't want to do it, bad things happen when you force it. Is it worth ruining your video card and having no warranty? if the answer is yes, then proceed.

Truth! I figured it out. I have a non-A version of this GPU. I cannot get more than 310W I guess?

Sorry to bump old thread, but wondering if you figured this out? I have a ****ty 2080 TI that i put a kraken g12 on, now it has a ton of thermal headroom and now I am hitting a power limit. Trying to find what bios to give it 
 
thanks

A soldering iron can do wonders.
For inspiration, on my GTX 1080:

Wow, that is really cool! Unfortunately, I am not brave enough haha. I am barely brave enough to BIOS mod my card

Can anyone help? I'm getting the GPU mismatch error.
Current card: EVGA 2080ti Black (reference PCB) with a +12% power limit.I tried an EVGA XC Ultra vbios and the gigabyte F2 special vbios but I am getting the GPU Mismatch error. I am using the patched nvflash64 which should bypass this error but isn't. I turned off protection of course. Any ideas?

You need a non-A chip bios and it has to be the proper XUSB-FW version for your card.  IIRC it's something like 310 or 320w max.
