GPU VBIOS database: how it works?

icegood · May 2, 2020

Hi there. I tried to apply my GPU to VBIOS database at least twice however all the time it says that my VBIOS GPU has been already applied and link for file is

MSI GTX 965M VBIOS

2048 MB GDDR5, 950 MHz GPU, 1253 MHz Memory

www.techpowerup.com

.
as i see it is not mine VBIOS. Mine has version
84.04.7b.00.09
You may find it there

Besides, it is not clear why vbios from link above is not verified and therefore could not be found in general DB filter?

Two points two improve:
1) Be able to upload any notebook vendor modifications of VBIOS for known cards and be able to distinguish them
2) Be able to find even unverified vbioses.

Hi. You can find unverified Bioses, they are selected in the first dropdown box? The reason why they are classified as unverified is because they have not been checked, sorted and moved, that is often the case because of the sheer volume of dumps that take place, sometimes thousands world wide in a relatively short period, as far as I am aware we don't have a single individual that does this.

it's just me, I do bunches of 50 or so from time to time, when I have time, based on what's most popular. I rather verify them myself so I know they're 100% fine

I've set that BIOS upload to verified

Now I am retired I would be happy to do some from time to time. :cool:

Hard to know what you should be looking for, I rather keep doing them myself

OK. Thanks. BIOS above became verified and therefore I cannot check how to find any unverified one in DB...

Nope, there is no such a dropbox, besides all dropboxes in

have 'all' as a default value, therefore nothing should be filtered out...

Strange.... so you don't get this option? ……...
