Hi guys, I have purchased a GTX 1660 ti and I’m happy with it’s performances. Yesterday I overclocked it, gaining +150 MHz on the core and +1500 on the gddr6 memory. For what I can see I could get more out of it because the limiting factor is the TDP. I have maxed it out on Afterburner to 125 and still hitting it.
Searching in techpowerup’s vga bios collection I saw that the Gaming OC version can increment it to 143%.

my card is this: https://www.techpowerup.com/gpu-specs/gigabyte-gtx-1660-ti-oc.b6718

So the question is: is it possible to flash the Gaming OC bios safely (that’s my priority, I don’t want to brick the card ) or is better to stay with the stock bios? And if it is possible how I can do this?
