Im having exactly the same issue with exactly the same bios version. Simply clicked check for updates under bios in the Extreme Gaming Engine, which pulls this F2 Bios file.
Tried my mates bios, same card, tried a few on techpowerup site. F**cked for ideas at this stage...

But he said he flashed back to the version it was shipped with. So which is it?

 

My Version of the old BIOS is 86.04.3B.40.61

Have you tried contacting GIGABYTE?

I mean, if their software actually lets you download this BIOS and this is what happened, then they have to help somehow I guess.

Don’t think there’s a company out there that would send you a bios. You already have it so what’s the problem there?

Well I’m sure they have clear instructions and what the potential results may be. You should already have the bois needed. Put your stock one back on, quite simple. 

 

Don’t update your bios and this won’t be an issue.

well if someone dont have the stock bios?? in extreme engine you can check for updates for my card, if you update bios and the card crash why do they have bios flash in the first place? stock bios is not the support page...  its not thate hard to upload  a 200kb file on there support sites...  but what do i know.. i think its weak to not even try to help costumers

Are you sure the bios actually flashed? Got a bios modding program to open the stock one so we can compare to what's flashed now?

There is no biod modding program for pascal.  It doesn't work that way anymore.

Regardless it can be viewed. Which is the point. Like some people that don’t save their stock bios and expect a company to supply every one on their page. Kinda pointless.

I've never seen a Pascal bios viewer.....have you?  No?  Cause it doesn't exist.

Then use gpuz correctly before and after. And if you cant save the stock bios don't flash and don't complain when a company doesn't offer it.

From what I can see it looks like GPU-Z cannot detect your memory manufacturer for your card. Mine says GDDR5X (Micron). Certain BIOS flashes are memory specific. If you flash the wrong one it can cause issues, if this is the case you're lucky your card hasn't bricked.

I had the exact same issue after upgrading my 1080 G1 to F2, and was able to fix it by flashing F30 from https://www.techpowerup.com/vgabios/196623/196623

 

Im not sure if im back to exactly the same performance but its much much better.

 

If anyone has problems with their Gigabyte G1 1080 after flashing to F2 you can flash the linked F30 version, it fixes everything! I am not sure where it comes from but it works great!

I have the same problem, flashing the F3 won't change anything. How did you flash it? I used this file GV-N1080G1 GAMING-8GD/F3/0409 with NVFlash Version 5.427.0 and nothing seems to fix my problem. I restart my PC, CPU-Z Displays the updated BIOS but Memory is still capped on 405 MHz for some stupid reason. I just write nvflash64 <filename> it asks me to press y or n for abort I press y, it flashes it and nothing. I don't know I am so sad rn...

This one seems to fix the cap problem. But is performance the same? I am trying to run Overwatch at pretty much everything on low and some times I get bellow 144fps is that normal with a gtx 1080?

Check with GPU-z what is the clock speed...
