5070 Ti power limit questions

[Jaysta]

If you attach the BIOS files you're planning to flash, I can analyze them and let you know in advance whether they're compatible. Otherwise, you might run into problems

Hey mate,

Probably looking into flashing the following bios first since it’s from the same company:

Palit RTX 5070 Ti VBIOS

16 GB GDDR7, 2295 MHz GPU, 1750 MHz Memory

www.techpowerup.com

If I get a bit more adventurous, I might try the 400w gigabyte bios the others are using above

Appreciate if you can verify the compatibility of both these bios.

The Palit GameRock OC BIOS will work fine, but you'll only gain about 20W, which isn’t a huge improvement, so it might not be worth it. As for the 400W BIOS, I have some doubts about full compatibility, but you can give it a try. Since your card has a dual BIOS, there’s not much risk; if something goes wrong, you can always recover using the secondary BIOS.

hi to all!
i successfully flashed vanguard bios on my gaming oc+ 5070ti, but the only bios i could find here is silent one, anyone knows perhaps where to find performance one?

This is the 400W performance bios of my Aorus master

Sorry if I'm asking a dumb question, but shouldn't a power slider in MSI Afterburner allow me to increase power limit after flashing this bios?

I downloaded your rom and flashed it with:

nvflash64.exe --protectoff
nvflash64.exe -6 400wperformancebios.rom

The flash was successful but the Power Limit slider in Afterburner is still maxed at 100%:

You should have this in GPU-Z and MSI Afterburner. Make sure the BIOS version is the same as the one shown in GPU-Z in my screenshot.

I downloaded the 400W bios from here :

Gigabyte RTX 5070 Ti VBIOS

It shows exactly like you have in the screenshot, but now the GPU has a warning icon in Device Manager and shows Code 43. Does this mean the flash didn't work? Or do I just reinstall the drivers?

The total power consumption of your 5070Ti directly depends on the voltages at which it operates. For example, I’ve had five GPUs from the 5000 series: two 5090s, one 5080, and two 5070Tis, and none of them ran at the same stock voltages. They can range from around 995 mV to over 1.070 V, and within that range, power consumption can increase significantly in certain scenarios, such as highly demanding 4K gaming or synthetic benchmarks like Port Royal, etc.

Judging by your comment, I’d assume that your 5070Ti runs at lower stock voltages than mine. My 5070Ti operates at 1.050 V by default, and with overvolting it goes up to 1.070 V. At those voltages, and running close to 3400 MHz on the core and 2125 MHz on the memory, you definitely need 400W, or even more, to keep it stable.

These are my Steel Nomad scores with 400W

DX12 API

I scored 8 244 in Steel Nomad

Intel Core i9 processor 14900KF, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti x 1, 32768 MB, 64-bit Windows 11}

My does not really want to run run more than 3270MHz and it uses 1,05V. The memory part have not figured out yet. But i think the heat problem too, power consumption goes up to 365W now.

Run DDU and reinstall the latest driver in Safe Mode to see if that fixes the error.

Set the memory to 34000 MHz, you had it at only 32060 MHz, and you can also increase the voltage to 100%

Palit GameRock OC bios worked fine but you're right about the minimal 20W gain. Is there any other any other bios that offers more power and is compatible with a Palit GamingPro?

I've got better score, but GPU overvolting does not help, will crash the videocard if i try run benchmark so ,

Hi, I've tried flashing 400W Gigabyte bios into my Palit Gamerock (non OC) - it does output video signal, boot into windows, but with generic driver and error 43 in device manager after reinstallation of nvidia drivers. What does work perfectly is Asus Prime Ti OC bios with 350W power limit - https://www.techpowerup.com/vgabios/274030/274030.

Did you get any real world performance improvements with the Asus Prime Ti bios? I tried it earlier and did not notice any gains apart from slightly higher 3Dmark benchmark scores.

 

[Vazz]

I've seen OCd card pulling more than 310W during gaming, and GPU clock sitting around 3240 MHz (on MSI Afterburner OSD). Stock power hard limit of Palit Gamerock non-OC is 300W. Without OC simple bios change won't make significant difference.

 

[Jaysta]

Another thing I noticed is that my maximum overclocks have regressed on the latest 576.xx drivers. I tested with the 572.83 drivers and was able to get +480mhz OC core. I'm only getting around +390-400mhz oc on the latest 576.28 drivers.

 

[Boldnuts]

Just wondering what your default gpu core voltages are on your Palit cards as my GameRock non oc run's at at 0.96mv max and won't go any higher even using the curve tuner in afterburner

My Palit 5070 Ti GamingPro stock runs between 1.035v-1.055v in game during load

 

[Boldnuts]

That's the ballpark that I thought mine should be at, it's odd as I am getting good performance when undervolting with a real world 3000MHz at 0.910mv fully stable and around 2647MHz at 0.960 Stock.

Sometimes MSI afterburner glitches with voltage settings especially if you unlock voltage controls. Maybe try resetting your afterburner settings or even uninstalling and reinstalling the program and see if it fixes it.

 

[Boldnuts]

I have tried your suggestions and it still won't go any higher then 0.960mv at default stock, I will drop Overclockers a message to confirm all is ok, thanks' for your reply

If you apply 100% voltage in MSI Afterburner, you can go 0.020V higher.

For example, my AORUS Master 5000 Ti runs at 1.050V stock, and with the voltage slider at 100% in MSI Afterburner, it goes up to 1.070V. With the MSI SUPRIM 5080 I had, it ran from 0.995V to 1.000V stock, and went up to 1.015V or 1.020V when I set the voltage to 100% in MSI Afterburner.

And for now, there's nothing else you can do to increase the voltage on certain silicon chips ( in the 5000 series ) , either that, or you’d have to do a hardmod, which would void your warranty and could potentially damage your GPU.
