Patch is on a distinguished road
Default Zotac 280 AMP mods?

Anybody have linkies to hard/soft mods or BIOS recs?

Asking up front because I've been known to spend a week making a frankencard, only to find out later that some random BIOS tweak eliminates OCP or some such thing......

pretty sure the amp is still of reference design

"Being a copy of the reference card, the Zotac has a seven-phase power circuit governed by a popular Volterra VT1165MF controller. One 6-pin and one 8-pin connectors are used for external power supply."

But I think you can breach any OVP from using software to up volts, like on the lightning 275

Anyone use the 280 gtx VDD and/or the VDDQ mods for this card or the stock 280s? Not sure what they are or what they control, any insight would be helpful.
