So anyways, this thing isn't exactly what you could call top of line
material, but:
According to eVga, they throw out the warranty on flash bios updates, and do
not offer bios's on their site.
So I did a little exploring on my own, found an utility that lets you test a
bios before actually installing it, and found one from PNY that worked on
the card (I was attempting to overclock this card). On bootup - it
identifies fine, but instead of showing 128mb video memory, it only shows as
64mb (odd that it even works at all, but it does, flawlessly) - I haven't
had a massive performance hit with it, but I'd still like to know if it's
using all 128 mb of memory.
Now, this is a 64bit card, but my curiousity precedes me - is there a way to
make it a 128bit card simply through a bios update? If so, where can I go to
find one that would work?
Your input is appreciated, thanks.
