I don't have any experience in ocing videocards...will that bios unlock the limit nvidia put on the hcip?
No, the limit isn't a BIOS issue, it is a driver issue. The driver reads what card it is and limits the clock speed. Any time the clock speed is higher than the 680MHz the drivers reset the clock speed to 680MHz. The only way to get around it is to flash the card with a higher clocked BIOS.
