Flashing the BIOS versions with the BIOS of other cards is a way of increasing the power limit if the manufacturer does not provide a BIOS offers a higher power limit. A corresponding NVFlash version is now available. However, it is not always possible to simply switch between manufacturers and models – you have to wait for experiences from other users. It is already being discussed in the forum.
