hello,

is there a way to create a custom BIOS with a custom power target, like we did with older GPUs? so far i only see ways to flash BIOS bins from other vendors, but no way to set custom values. Cards are all MSI gaming X variants, if that matters. afterburner/precision X are not an option.

this isn't for gaming. i have about a dozen RTX 2070/2060 Super that we use in a production environment. the cards were installed in lenovo workstations that weren't really designed for this amount of heat or power draw.
 
+1 here , I have MSI RTX duke 2070 super that got it's power limited to 100% only :( and I'd like to know if it can be at lease upped to 110-120% , sure I don't need those extra little bump in performance now but I want to know for the future.

you *should* be able to take a BIOS from another 2070 super and flash it to your card

i'm trying to get a lower power target, not higher. something like 80% because the Lenovo power supplies in these workstations only got to 400 watts.

EDIT: wait, are you sure it s a duke super, according to MSI's website, no such card exists.

Unless there is such a thing as a Turing bios editor I don't think you will be able to and I don't think there is one (but not entirely sure) because I was under the impression the Bioses are locked?

i was able to flash an evga 2080 ti BIOS onto my gigabyte 2080 ti to get higher power targets. then i flashed it back to a gigabyte BIOS when a higher power target option was available from gigabyte.
BIOS is only locked on the non "A" cards. that's any card that's not FE or not overclocked from the factory.

what i'm looking for is a BIOS image with a lower than 100% power target for a 2060 super. a BIOS editor would be ideal

Ahhhh OK, I thought you were hoping to modify a Bios to achieve the lower power target sorry.

that would be fine too, if such an option existed.

Just took a look through the unverified uploads for the 2060 Super, seems most of them have an upper limit of around 200W, however I noticed the Palit that had the lowest boost clock and that card was limited to 175W max...…..
