Is it normal or common when you update your motherboard bios you're able to get a way better OC on your Video card? Before the update i couldn't push my 2060 past +20 on the core clock, now i'm getting +160 stable I never encountered something like this before lol

Sorry, Bios for the motherboard. 

That has really nothing to do with your card OC capability. 

The 2000 series cards are very temperature sensitive. Either you got lower room temp and more aggressive fan curve or both.

Well the fan curve is set to the same as when i could only push +20 on the core and its actually hotter in my place now because its summer now so idk. Could a gpu driver update affect the overclocking capability ?

If that's the case, no idea. 

But I'm quite positive it has nothing to do with your motherboard BIOS.
