Hi, so my card have a bios switch, which is silent mode and oc mode. So i flash the bios on oc mode, and i didn't back up the original bios for the oc mode. Does all the same card as me have the same bios? If so, where can i download the original bios for the oc mode? Because i messed up with memory timing on oc mode. But now i can still run the card on silent mode.

There's a couple that look like they're what you're after here:

There's also a bunch on the unverified list that might work too:

sorry for late reply, so this happened. i downloaded 1 bios from there. i think i downloaded the right bios for the right memory and everything (spoiler: i was wrong i guess). so i made a huge mistake, i forgot to switch the switch in order to flash my OC bios, and i ended up bricking my silent mode bios too. and my card totally bricked. I've tried everything to re-flash my bios with my silent bios backup. and nothing work, so i bring it to my near computer repair shop. and they removing the bios chip and manually re-flash the bios (using bios programmer machine i guess that's what its called). and thank god my silent mode is working again. and now im scared to trying to fix my OC bios. i guess ill just leave it as it is, and i dont really mind losing some core clock. but thank you for your answer

Looks like what eidairaman1 put in his signature, with bold text and red color is true. There is at least a couple of thread requesting vBIOS every week. Even with switchable dual BIOS people still messed this up. No offense to you Nasguul, just from my observation. I glad you managed to recover your card or it will be an expensive mistake.

I'm glad that it is working again, however use this link for proper bios reprogramming.

If you have further questions please ask

My particular card I have uefi and csm bios, I wont flash my CSM bios, only uefi for this reason.
@Apocalypsee Apyes you are right, I wrote that out because there are too many that come here saying "HALP I BRICKED MY CARD" and get tired of repeating the same thing over and over.
