GPU Bios won't update

[blakslee720]

I have a 3080 aorus master 1.0 with the F4 bios. I can only get 320-340 watts out of it and the power slider in MSI afterburner only goes up to 100%. In regards to OC-ing, I'm currently hitting power limits and want to increase the power. So I tried to install the Aorus xtreme 1.0 F3 bios, which, according to the description, ups the TDP to 450 watts.

 

However, when I follow the instructions from the link bellow to update my bios, GPU-Z tells me I'm still on my old F4 bios.

 

Please advise

if you want to take the risk, nvflash. Buy a cheap USB Bios flasher and have it as a backup if something goes wrong

Ok. I do have a bios switch on the card so if something goes wrong I can just flip to the other bios
