Lightbulb [REQUEST] GTX 580 BIOS MOD for additional VESA modes - 07-13-2011, 19:19 | posts: 1

Hi,

I've been trying to patch my BIOS using dumped stock ROM from my GPU:

EVGA GTX580 Black Ops Edition

Currently, I'm trying to achieve additional VESA modes. In this case, it's 1920x1080@60. There's very little resources and reference on the web and so far the base of my trials came from this forum thread:

The following is my stock BIOS dump.

So far, hex editing the ROM dump would either leave no changes in listed/available VESA modes or will leave the card with no display.

I've even emailed EVGA support to check if there's going to be a BIOS update in near future and they replied saying "We have no plans to do so. Thank you."

Any assistance and suggestions would be much appreciated Thanks!
