Need Bios for my EVGA 1080 Gaming

Hi, recently I upgraded the bios of my card but got the wrong one. I used the bios for the EVGA 1080 FTW while mine is a EVGA 1080 gaming. It's running well and so far I haven't had any issues with it but I noticed that the Bios I used is for a card that has double cooler and mine only has a regular cooler.

Question is, how big of an issue is that the card is working with this Bios and second, I couldn't find the exact Bios for this reference, so if anyone has it, I would appreciate it if you could share it with me. The reference is EVGA GeForce GTX 1080 GAMING, 08G-P4-5180-KR, 8GB GDDR5X. You can check it in this link. https://www.evga.com/products/product.aspx?pn=08G-P4-5180-KR

Thanks!

To the other part of the question, if the card is working with the new BIOS, consider yourself lucky and with an overclock by default, although Boost sort of makes it irrelevant in many cases. If you are worried about it, flash back to the original as soon as you sort out which BIOS file is right for you, or better still, use the file EVGA sends if you get in touch with them.

@eidairaman1 I see you changed links ;)

Yeah i caught on, i looked for his specific clock speed, he might be sol here but as cdawall said he might get it from evga, if he does it would be nice if he gave a gpu-z bios dump after he restores the card

Thank you for the assistance. I was able to find an exact match for mine, it was under unverified so that's why I didn't see it the first time. will try contacting EVGA to check if they have an exact bios for mine as well.
