A new rig to show off or just want help with the latest Tech, if it’s for PC this is the place.

You may actually be right about that, i just had a look a the Hexus review of the 1070 FTW and it is running a different BIOS [86.04.1E.00.70] and my card is [86.04.1E.01.70] i don't know if that actually would be the limiting factor or not but it would be worth a shot to try flashing that BIOS to my card to see if it actually changes anything, but for the the problem remains that no one have found a way to flash these cards as the NVFlash for Maxwell don't work for Pascal even-though Pascal is just Maxwell 2.0.

Edit.
I got the idea to see if the 2 BIOS's on the card was different and they are.
[86.04.1E.00.70] is the 'Master BIOS'
[86.04.1E.01.70] is the 'Slave BIOS'

But i am of the impression that the chip it self is not good, but strangely enough i haven't had a display driver crash due to overclocking so i might, the benchmarks like Firestrike just says "cancelled by user" with it stops running so could be driver related also. but i doubt that too, but only thing is forsure Nvidia don't want their cards overclocking passed a certain point as all 1070's have a voltage lock to 1,093v.

I'm still thinking it is bad silicon, but the BIOS thing is interesting none the less.

Yes, you can use the second BIOS to make a more extreme profile, like Jay did. At least that was what i was getting from his video. So maybe there are different BIOS settings already. You can bet the Classified has different Bios.

Anyway, with a full range of Pascal, Nvidia now has a big armada on the virtual battlefield. Only one missing is the GTX1080Ti. :party:

Just when you think there won't be any new GTX1080 reviews anymore, EVGA comes with the Clssified.
And yes, this thing does OC. :mrgreen:

He already sold them his children for the first one. For this one probably his kidneys. :loll:

But he is right to go Titan for the Skunkworks. :party:

Linus takes it to another level, by taking a Quadro 6000 ($5.000 card) to do some gaming :lol:



BTW, now he has to take two to beat JayZ2Cents upcoming Skunkworks.
And from the looks of it, you might stick with the Titan X 8-)

EVGA got back to me after i asked them if you could get a upgrade kit for the Hybrid FTW cooler for the regular FTW card, and they said "It's in the works" so soon i guess i could upgrade my card, but whether it is worth it or not i don't know.

But i'll the release of AMD's Vega to decide if i should consider getting the hybrid cooler for it or not. ;)

But then again, the GTX 1070 G1 Gaming is getting seriously lowered in price, 10 euros overnight :mrgreen:
