Not reading that AI slop, if you need to flash the VBIOS of 3080 (or any GPU), do the following: 1. Get a new VBIOS from a trusted source. I recommend TPU[1]

Not reading that AI slop, if you need to flash the VBIOS of 3080 (or any GPU), do the following:
1. Get a new VBIOS from a trusted source. I recommend TPU[1], they have a HUGE collection.
2. Backup the current VBIOS (e.g. GPU-Z has a on-click option to backup and upload it to TPU)
3. Have a working 2nd GPU[2] (or another PC with a free PCIe slot) so that you have the option the flash back the orignal VBIOS in case things go south [3]
4. Test that your backup GPU/PC works BEFORE flashing any VBIOS, goddamit!

[2] onboard/iGPU is sufficient if present, but again: test if it works before doing anything! (just remove the dGPU and see if you get video output)
[3] Ofc you can also try to memorize the key inputs to do it blindly w/o video output from your GPU. Not recommended.
- reactordev 5mo agoThe whole point of it was for Linux, not windows, no gui, to enable this feature. Your recommendation is for windows, a gui tool, and basically everything this project was anti.
