Must the custom vBios version match your original vBios version?

There's a variety of vBios revisions and i'm trying to understand if they have to match the version i have right now (80.10.37.00.12).

 

Toodles.

 

Muchas appreciations.

All you are changing are the parameters of your stock BIOS but the checksum of the BIOS must be the same. I did my 660ti and i now run at 1280Mhz, i was running at 1306MHz but it is not stable in COD Ghosts. Your BIOS version number will be the same. Just be sure to follow the steps properly and to save your original BIOS in case something goes wrong and you need to put you GPU back to stock.

Alright, well the guy who made the custom bios's for the 780 has a bunch of different revisions, there's like a revision 3 and then revision 3A and then 4 which from what i saw is different bios versions, 3A for the cards that came with 80.10.3A and 3 for the cards with the version 80.10.37 so i don't know which i'm supposed to get.

You need to check you BIOS version and according to what your number is then you will choose the corresponding modified BIOS. Now if you do it on your own you will see that from the stock BIOS to the modified BIOS the BIOS number stays the same. I am sure the version 3 and 3A and then 4 is just the guys way of doing something called "versioning" and that is something programmers do to keep track of the progress of their work.

 

I am going to send you a PM for you to see what i used for my 660Ti and i am sure the modder is using one of these programs.

Yeah well like i said i'm pretty sure the different revisions aren't just V1, V2 and so on of his custom bios, looks like it's different versions according to different cards and different bios revisions.
