Well, once I can't flash my BIOS, can anyone tell me the reference vGPU for Toxic version?

Looks like it's 1188mV. But i can't set 1188mV in TriXXX... Or i set 1187mV or 1193mV...

And my Vendor ID was 0x0000 - (Apollo, Colorful, Diablotek, MAXSUN, Palit, Peak, Triplex and others) and i've changed it to 0x174B - PC Partner (known as Sapphire) because in GPUz it was recognized as Sapphire/PC Partner 0174B too...

It has flashed ok...

So, why can't i flash the Toxic BIOS into mine? The checksums are different but at RBE FAQ it says it's not a matter of concern because

WinFlash simply doesn't use the whole file as a basis for its (checksums) calculation but only the portion of the file that's reported as the file's size inside the file.

Sapphire Toxic is a non-reference card too, right?

Then it could maybe work but there is still the chance that the toxic has some other components.

I'm just a little scared that i can kill my card for ever and can't recover it with the original backup BIOS that i have previous saved.

What could be a safe temp for my 6870 Vapor-X?

And tension? I'm npw at 980/4700 at 1.200v... Temps at load are around 64ºC... ATITools shows some yellow artifacts but Unigene 2.5 runs smootlhy... What may this mean?
