I was bored and decided to flash the XOC bios on my Aorus 1080ti using nvflash64. The flash went fine, and I rebooted the PC (to switch to safe mode for DDU). Upon rebooting I got no display at all on my BenQ screen, even after going through all the DisplayPort outputs on my card. I shut down the computer, switched to a DVI-D connection, booted, and now it worked fine (card recognized, drivers installed, monitor ran at 144Hz, etc). I played around with the new OC options, got bored after a few hours, and switched back to my Aorus bios using the same method.
After switching back the the stock bios, I have two problems:
1. On stock bios, I cannot change the refresh rate of my screen to 144Hz (only 60Hz available). I am still on DVI-D and it should function at 144Hz (it did for the previous bios).
2. I can't get the DP/HDMI ports to work. Only the DVI-D.
Other than that I think the flash went fine with the afterburner finding the original OC settings I had for that bios, and Superposition gave the same score.
Updates about #1
- With the original bios, I discovered I can run some lower resolutions at 120Hz.
- I re-flashed the XOC bios and 144Hz works again. I also tried another modified FTW3 bios and it achieves 144Hz as well.
Any suggestions on how to fix those issues?
Thanks!
