780 Classified - OC tool help

[SolarNova]

Greetings.

 

Any1 have any experience with a 780 Classified (non Ti) and the Classified OC tool for bypassing the votlage limits ?

 

I want to know the best Bios i should be flashing to ?

 

I have used the OC tool with stock LN2 bios, i've hit the power limit (115%) now so i cant OC any further dispite having ample cooling headroom and voltage to spare.

Currently at 1.318v OC tool indicated (1.299v load GPU-Z indiacted), 1397mhz Core, +400 mem. Valley bench passed (no artifacts) 3327 score.

 

Cheers.

Well there aren't many around that would do much more. Just raise power assuming you have more to use. Fans take away a decent amount of that.

With respect i dont think u understand. Tis why im looking for any1 who has OC'ed with the utility on a 780.

 

The power limit , rather the maximum power limit u can set, is determined by the bios. In my case im runing stock bios. So its 115%, which i already have it set at.

With the OC utilities ability to bypass the normal core votlage limit, im able to increase the voltage to almost anything i want.

As the votlage goes up the power draw goes up.

 

So currently, im limited by the power limit.  hence the requirment for a custom bios. I just need to know which custom bios i should use. Was hoping som1 here had experience.

As for fans thats a not a issue, im on a custom loop.

Well you don't have to use a custom one for that. Kepler bios tweaker. I have mine set to 200%. Doesn't do anything as the card can only take in so much power. but it could help you if you are hitting a power limit.

Aye i know about the bios tweeker, but that requirs one to export their current bios, tweek it themselves then import.

 

I'd rather use a pre modded bios that has been tested by people.

The power limit, DOES make a BIG difference. The difference between a card pulling 250w and 500w at extreme OC's, and the ability to stop downclocking from power limits. Classifed and K|ngP|n cards are built for that.

 

Appreciate the effort, but i do really need input from som1 who has done this before. Cheers.

I have done it before, on 5 Keplers. 

 

The best bios is prolly going to be sky net but that being said, there aren’t many readily available for such old outdated hardware. 

 

If you haven’t taken to time to look for a bios, modding one is going to be the best bet.
