naaa...i am better off with my 8800 gt standard OC...

was just asking .. no way I am going to try anything like that just to show off .. already I am getting close to 60fps ( which my monitor can take ), in most games with high graphics settings.

Wont changing the bios also change the clock speed and memory speed in an OC edition card?? maybe bring it to stock? or does the 9800gt run at a higher clock speed??

Hey guys I was wondering, any chance you can do this from a cd-rom if you have no usb stick or any other type of media to use?

I have a MSI 8800 GT OC version. Will flashing the BIOS make my card run at stock speed? Is it worth flashing an OCed card?

Keep the nvflash files and bios file on C: drive

Boot from a Win98 or MS-DOS start-up.... and flash the bios from the harddisk itself... that how I did it
