Going to be getting a gtx 770 - Secure Boot question/s

I understand that secure boot has to be disabled, but do I also have to enable legacy support?

Hi:
If you are going to add an non-HP video card, you have to change both settings in accordance with the instructions at the link below.

GTX 770 not booting

I just got a EVGA GTX 770 gpu for my HP Phoenix h9-1120t. I installed it, plugged in the PSU pins and made sure it was securely placed but when I turn on my computer I just a blank screen and some beeps.
Here are my PC specs:
i7-3770K CPU 3.50 GHz
Pegatron IPMMB-FM
10 GB RAM
600w PSU
Liquid Cooled
Any suggestions?

I too have an HP Phoenix h9-1120t, and I have the answer for you. But its probably not what you want to hear.
Here's my story: I have a close friend who works in a local computer repair shop so he gets huge discounts/dealer prices on parts, and accessories and is always hooking me up with trades/parts etc.. so my plan was to upgrade the graphics card in my Phoenix, since my wife uses it all the time now - and I pretty much am using a new rig I just built anyway which is based on a i7 4770k.
My h9-1120t has almost the same specs as yours with a few things I've added- a liquid cooled i7 3770k, 16GB of 1600 MHz Crucial RAM, a Samsung 840 EVO 250GB boot drive (I added), the original Intel 160GB SSD (now used for music/photos),1TB Hitachi 7200RPM HDD, Blu-Ray drive, and a MSI Power Edition GTX 670. This rig has worked exceptionally and is actually a really a very decent and blazing fast rig. My friend Brice actually likes my Phoenix and he really despises HP and Dell - but he has been impressed with its performance and speed which keeps pace and even sometimes beats his own self-built heavily overclocked i7 3770k rig.
So...I was able to trade my MSI GTX 670 with him for a brand new EVGA GTX 770 w/ACX cooling (and about $25 bucks) - and I was planning to put it in the HP Phoenix rig which has the Pegatron IPMMB-FM Formosa motherboard you mentioned. After about three days and countless hours of customer service with HP, EVGA, calling Brice, research, and swearing - I could not get this card to work in the Phoenix h9-1120t (it worked flawlessly in my other self-built rig and Brice's i7 3770k rig so I knew it wasn't the card), I FINALLY found out the Pegatron Formosa motherboard we have is NOT compatible with the 700 series of Nvidia graphics cards. I know this seems strange because the GTX 770 is a GK104 based card, just like the GTX 670 and GTX 680, however, the 1120t will not complete the boot process with any 7xx series card installed. Nvidia did just enough tweaking and changed a few things in the circuitry/PCB to cause it to not allow the boot to complete on the Formosa mobo.
THIS WAS A HAIR PULLING NIGHTMARE - trying to figure this one out, and I'm sure you're right there too. I stayed up until 3 am the first night working on this thing- and I started about 9:00 in the morning!!!
Bear in mind that there are about 4 different mobos used for the HP Phoenix. The newer Phoenix's with the Haswell processors use an MSI made "Kaili" Z87 chipset based mobo and the Nvidia 7xx series cards work just fine in them. No problem. There is also an older version of the Phoenix which came with Sandy Bridge processors, which was based on a Z68 chipset but I can't say for sure if the 7xx cards work in that one. Finally there are two variations for the Sandy Bridge-E and Ivy-Bridge-E high end procs, and the 7xx series Nvidia cards seems to work with them.
It's just the Z75 chipset Formosa board we have. It's a big no-go for anything more powerful than a GTX 680 on this one. I can't say if a dual GPU GTX 690 will work, because we didn't have one to test- but the Radeon HD 7970 and GTX 680 both work fine (but we did change out the OEM Delta 600 watt PSU to a Corsair TX650 watt, not for the overall wattage mind you, but because the +12v rail was too weak in the Delta PSU).
But the mobo you and I have is based on a OEM version of the Z75 chipset, and it does not play nicely with whatever little changes that Nvidia did to the 700 series cards. Sometimes the rig will go to the HP logo splash screen and lock-up, and other times the screen will just be blank like you said, followed by the series of error code beeps from the mobo. Such a bummer.
A simple BIOS update for the board COULD correct this issue, but there are none available, and HP cust. service told me they have no plans to make any updates since this particular Phoenix model is now out of production (they actually kept trying to sell me a new Phoenix, which was ridulous).
So, luckily I was able to get a EVGA Superclocked GTX 680 Signature 2 (I couldn't get my GTX 670 P.E. back because he already sold it). The EVGA GTX 680 works flawlessly and is only +/- 5-10% less than the GTX 770, and was a slight bump over my old MSI 670, so I'm not that upset at all in retrospect. It's a very decent card and works great.
So the long and short of it is the GTX 770 will NOT work on your mobo. Either get a GTX 680 or a Radeon HD 7970. That's gonna be the highest-end for this rig. Again, I was not able to test the dual GPU cards (690 and 7990) , so I can't say if they will work or not but I suspect they won't. HP cust. service told me that mobo won't handle PSUs any higher than 600-650 watts, so I also suspect you might have issues with any dual GPU card and the Delta PSU.
But trust me, my wife is very happy with the i7 3770k/GTX 680 combo she has now. Real happy. BF4 at 60-80FPS on Ultra (@1920x1080) is nothing to scoff at. And she's running dual 22 inch monitors.
And I ended up putting the GTX 770 in my Haswell rig (I put a GTX 760 in it originally), so all is well that ends well.
Hope this helps, and sorry for the probs you're having. I've been there.
Cheers.

Secure boot question and user question

would it be safe and possible to say install just the boot partition to a 32mb sd card keeping everything else on the main hard drive? maybe having the /root on a USB drive to avoid anyone using su to get to it and making it accessible for emergency purposes. i would also encrypt my home folder.
does the above sound like a viable idea? and i am assuming so long as i install the card reader drivers during the initial setup i can just dd /boot/ over to the sd card.
also on my arch installs i installed sudo and added my username to wheel which i gave all permissions with password. this should be safe and i should never need to actually su to root correct? or are there some advantages to su to root?

I'm guessing you might have seen something like this? I wanted to try that myself, but it apparently only works if your card can be picked up by the mobo as an internal drive. Supposedly there's a way to hack or flash certain brands and models to achieve this, but I haven't looked into it in a while. My card reader uses a USB internal connection, so it can't be used as-is: on boot, my BIOS searches only the selected source for the necessary files, so I can't have /boot on /dev/sdb grab the initramfs from /dev/sda1. It could be entirely dependent on you board and BIOS, or may require extra work, but it's possible. You'll just need to do some work to get the info for your machine.

GTX 770 SLI on Z97-GD65 GAMING motherboard

Hi,
I'm planning to buy a Z97-GD65 GAMING motherboard, I'm thinking of getting 2 GTX 770 and SLI bridge them. I see in the motherboard specs that it supports SLI however the compatibility for VGA ( h -t -t- p://www.msi.com/support/mb/Z97GD65_GAMING.html#support-cpu ) under numbers shows 1 for GTX 770 . Does this mean i can only use one card, will i not be able to SLI bridge it ? If this board does not support 2 770s then can you suggest one that will ?
Thanks,
Yuva

Guess i will research more on 780ti, thanks a lot this was helpful . Would there be any difference in performance if i use a ZOTAC GPU instead of a MSI on a MSI motherboard

Do I need an active adapter for my third monitor? (GTX 770)

I have a GTX 770 and with it a 2560x1440 monitor is connected through Dual-DVI.
I want to connect my TV and a second 22" computer screen to my graphics card. The MSI 770 Gaming has this:
Dual-link DVI-I x 1
Dual-link DVI-D x 1
DisplayPort x 1 (version 1.2)
HDMI x 1 (version 1.4a)
Is it possible to connect my screens so that I do not need an active adapter? Let's say the 27" screen goes to a Dual Link DVI, the TV connects to HDMI, and the 22" screen connects to either the last Dual Link DVI or the DisplayPort.
Is this possible?

If Vodafone operates anything like AT&T here in the States, once the SIM has been inactivated by the carrier, you would need a new one. I usually get a new SIM when I swap phones. I may be supersticious, but I think it reduces problems.

MSI GTX 770 driver keeps falling

Hello,
I am proud owner of MSI GTX770 OC,but now(well, maybe for half a year) I continuosly having problems with about 3-5 sec blackouts. When its occur, bubble appear from right lower corner telling that driver Geforce Experience v. xxxxx stop working. Sometimes blackout is permanent, I hear sounds from game but my monitor just put itself into sleep as its not get any ,.instructions". I am not sure what it could be as it is happens very randomly, sometimes I turn on computer and, as I am using Intel Xeon procesor without intergrated card, have resolution about 400x100 with 8 colours so only thing I can do is restart. I was searching if anyone else have this issue and cant find anything. I was thinking maybe cable is somehow damaged, using DVI-DVI.

Well, it occur in very different situtations... Nothing happens for a week, then its start again and then again nothing for some time. But for last two weeks its occur too much so I am getting pretty annoyed. I using this pc mostly for gaming, playing almost only world of warcraft on ultra so card temp si about 60C all the time. But I dont think its problem of gaming, because for example when I wake up today, I was going to take a breakfast, then turn on computer. After about 20sec(using SSD) everything seems ready so I turn on browser to check something and then its happens again...but totally, I had to restart comp, but graphic didnt load and there was some horrible resolution and colours like if gc doesnt working. So I restart again and then everything ok. Then I was playing for two hours with no problem. I was going to make and eat some dinner quiting everything and when I came back it was there again, pc button glow like pc running but doesnt react on anything, so I have to restart. As long as I remember, its never happens when I watched some movie.
Most times its fine, I usually play even 10 hours in a row without any problem but when blackout occur there is a high chance that there will be another soon.
I dont think I have bad driver. I am using GeForce Experience which is just only driver for NVIDIA cards and there were about 10 updates since its happens first and no one of these helps with that.

Replace GeForce GTX 295...GeForce GTX 770???

Think it's time to update our video card since we are using Premiere Pro CC and After Effects CC. Built our rig in 2009 and have the GTX 295 in there now which has been pretty good over the past 4 years.
Was looking at the GeForce GTX 770, which is around $400. Budget is around $500, which I know isn't a lot but think we can get something decent for that amount.
Saw the benchmarks and notes from Adobe that the GTX 6xx series preforms slighlty better than the Quadro series cards. I'm open to either.
Anyone have suggestions....
Our rig:
Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit
ASUS P6T7 WS Supercomputer
Intel Core i7-950 Bloomfield 3.06GHz LGA 1366 130W Quad-Core
CORSAIR XMS3 12GB (6 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600
EVGA 017-P3-1294-AR GeForce GTX 295 1792MB 896 Bit GDDR3 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI

Thanks guys. Interesting. Don't get me wrong, after updating the driver, the 295 still runs pretty good out of AE CC. Exporting a 20 sec title 3d animation for use in premiere (MOV - PNG at full quality) then going to DVCPROHD tape, took 9 minutes with GPU compared to 4 hours before updating the driver. So it works pretty good. I know Premiere CC only used 1 of the 2 GPU in the 295 but still runs pretty good. CC_merchant you might be correct....keep plugging away with the 295 and save the $$$ for the future.

New GTX 770 freezes/crashes

Just bought a new GTX 770 popped in it and installed the drivers. Before I installed the drivers everything was running smooth. After I installed the latest drivers I keep getting freezes and crashes. Freezes last about 1 minute and then my machine just turns off. I tried previous versions and still getting freezes and crashes.

Not quite throwing down on a PSU. It's almost most important part in the PC (#1 is motherboard) so this could've been a bit better choice.
I suggest you speak to a friend/colleague and ask if you can test your card in their PC (as long as their PSU is of some better brand, or at least known to work with higher end GPU).
At last, I recommend Corsair and Seasonic's power supplies. Proven to work really well. From Corsair CX, RM and AXi series are best in my opinion.
Ah I see. Yeah my current PSU was a gift from a friend and it worked great with my 7850 which I upgraded from. I just meant that I didn't want to buy a whole new PSU if that wasn't the problem. I'll definitely take a look at the ones suggested.
I appreciate the replies.

GTX 770 MSI N760 TF Gaming 2GD5/OC Always 50 Degrees?

I'm not sure what's going on here. I upgraded from Tri SLI GTX 470 cards with reference coolers to the MSI N760 TF 2GD5/OC. My old video cards would always come near 85-90 degrees when overclocked. But this new MSI N760 TF 2GD5/OC never gets any hotter than 50 degree even with Boost and a small user overclock. I'm worried something might be wrong here. But if not, why would you make a video card with all that cooling power and not allow higher voltage that +12? It seems like a waste. I feel like I should have just bought the GTX 760 Hawk. At least that one has unlocked voltage for higher overclocks. There's a huge $110 difference between these two cards.
Do you think maybe one of the 8-pin power connectors is not working? It just doesn't make sense at all to do something like that. Do you think it might have something to do with my ASUS Hero motherboard? That thing sometimes acts retarded with USBs, so maybe it's reporting false temps?

read about nvidia greenlight its NVIDIA that restricts how much voltage can be used or they void the GPU warranty on the core.
older cards had unlocked voltages but not now (some users where applying more voltage then the chip could safely use and it was Vaporising the silicon on the chip killing them over time and they started it with the Nvidia 6xx series cards so its been around for a while as users where overvolting them and causing overvoltage damage to the GPU so they locked it down or no manufacturer cover for the GPU from nvidia if they did not)
with the hawk models they allow you to overvolt them more but pass the lost cover (as no Greenlight) for the GPU onto the end user!
Crap ya I did screw that title up. Like I said, you can't go back and re-edit a post after so many minutes have past.
Anyways, I have the GTX 770. The thing never goes above 50 degrees Celsius. That's extremely cool I know. Every single video card or CPU I've had I've been able to red line to the max temp though, regardless if my voltage is locked or not. There's always seems to be some kind of point you can reach and the damn thing just shuts down. This card is beyond bizarre. Is it possible that I will never ever see 85 degree on this card? If that's the case, why make a video card like this and not even sniff it's critical point? Am I to guess that's what the 780 or Titan would be then?
I've seen nothing online to help me determine if I'm better off getting the GTX 760 Hawk over this GTX 770 Gaming one. My understanding is that the only advantage is maybe a +13 voltage increase and +185% Power Limit over the GTX 770's +12 voltage and 111% Power Limit. I have Svet's Fermi/Kepler VBIOS Tuner, so getting the +185 Power Limit on the GTX 770 Gaming is not a problem. So the GTX 770 Gaming has some room to overclock. I mean the ASUS Maximus VI motherboards and Haswell CPUs were overclocked at like 7GHz and the damn things weren't even released yet, lol. Where are those results for the Hawk and Gaming?
I was also hoping someone might know the difference in the potential of the 760 Hawk and 770 Gaming. I've seen overclocked reviews for the 760 Hawk, but none that talk about the unlocked potential. I know the 760 Hawk can sniff the GTX 770 in performance, but that's using stock overclocking methods. I would like to know if anyone has been able to successfully overclock the 760 Hawk past an overclocked GTX 770.

Windows will not boot GTX 770

Hi there,
I recently bought new MSI gtx 770 lighting edition LE. When i choose in uefi as a primary gpu - PCIe, windows will not boot, and after few seconds screen goes black. If i go with primary gpu as integrated in processor i am ok to boot even i can play on monitor connected to GTX770. When i ran passmark benchmark, i get for VGA 3600 points, againt average 6300. Is there something wrong ? Thank you. Motherboard Asus sabertooth z77, cpu i53470k. PSU 600W, 8GB ram...

Silly questions as this should be a no-brainer, but have you installed specific drivers for the 770 from the geforce website?

Enhancing GPU: 2 cards GeForce GTX 770 connected with SLI or Nvidia Quadro K5000?

Hello, I'm going to start working with video files of 4k raw format (Premiere, After Effects, SpeedGrade, RedGiant plug-ings). Now I have a video card GPU Nvidia GeForce GTX 770, but I was told that game video cards GeFroce have limited fukntsional when working with video in Premiere. Is it really so? If I change my card to Nvidia Quadro K5000 which has close characteristics, will I get any extra features working in Adobe programms (Premiere, SpeesGrade, After Effect)? Does it make sense in such a substitution? Or is it better to buy a second GTX 770 and put them in SLI? Will Adobe support that?

No, the Geforce cards don't have a limitation with 4K media and the GPU acceleration. The GPU acceleration ie CUDA is not specific to either Geforce or Quadro. The specs of the cards decide the performance. The Geforce Specs are far greater than the Quadro K5000 if you get the 780Ti or the Titan Black Edition. Both cards are cheaper. The only benefit the Quadro card has in regards to Adobe is the 10bit color output option for preview since Adobe is Open GL based for the API. However you can get a Blackmagic 4K studio card with a Titan Black edition and still spend less money than the K5000 while having far better performance. I personally run a E5-2697 V2 12 Core Xeon with a 770GTX 4GB card and I play 4K r3d back at half resolution easily right now. Full resolution for preview with 4K red is simply not possible via any software other than Redcine X Pro right now until the GPU acceleration debayering is available. BTW I would suggest 1 Titan Black edition over 2x 770GTX cards. The scaling across GPU's only works on rendering right now. When the GPU acceleration debayer is available then adding a 2nd Titan card would be far better than having 2x 770GTX cards.
SLI and GPU acceleration are 2 different technologies. SLI is scaling the drawing to the display across more than 1 video card. GPU acceleration is a programming module that send calculations to the GPU for processing that were normally processed by the player via the CPU. GPU acceleration does not require or even use SLI to scale across GPU's. That is managed and scheduled by the application.

GTX 770 Lightning vBios recovery and other questions

Hey I was just wondering, is 70C too hot becau- Just kidding. Haha, gotcha.
Actual Question: I was messing about flashing higher and higher power/memory/clock settings and I went too high. Just as I get to the betta fish loading logo (I'm using the 8.1 preview) the screen goes black but does not sleep and I'm stuck there. So now I get to use the LN2 switch to boot, (I JUST researched LN2 and realized what I've been missing) but how do I flash a Normal mode vbios when I can only run in LN2 mode?
Also, just to be 100% safe: A UEFI/GOP vBios is backward compatible with a legacy MB right? I want to make sure I have a vbios to boot with. MY actual computer is an obnoxious Inspiron 546 from 2009... yea. I'm just borrowing this rig. The 770 is MINE though.
Another issue I cannot understand is that whenever I reach 99% GPU usage under ANY (Normal) vBios settings in ANY game with ANY driver the game freezes and crashes and MSI afterburner occasionally reports something crazy like 90129374% Power in a spike. I was actually trying to work around that by overclocking so much I'd never reach 99% GPU usage, but it still spikes for a split second and crashes me.
Finally, I'm highly curious about this vbios entry on techpowerup http://www.techpowerup.com/vgabios/141424/msi-gtx770-2048-130605.html The other two MSI GTX770 Lightning vbios's on this page http://www.techpowerup.com/vgabios/index.php?manufacturer=MSI&model=GTX+770 are the Normal and LN2 vbios's as it states at the bottom, but that third one says nothing on the bottom, and to further increase curiosity the version number has a more significant change in it. Has something been updated?
Oooh yes, one last thing. I've think I might have come across a bug in Svets vBios Tuner (2.49h). I can't set any P*state higher than 2040 because I get a 'wrong parameter' error with anything above that. I used Kepler Bios Tweaker 1.25 to set it to 2104 and that worked, but appears as 4 in both Kepler Bios tweaker and Svets Tuner after that.
I know this is a lot of questions at once here, but I tend to save 'em up for a while. Thank you in advance. -Eli

but how do I flash a Normal mode vbios when I can only run in LN2 mode?
If you have a non-nvidia vga left you can install it besides the lightning and use it for primary display. Then just use nvflash as usual to reflash a normal vbios (of course card needs to be switched to normal) and it will flash the nvidia adapter it finds (the Lightning). If you only have another Nvidia card left you'd have to identify the adapters name you want to flash (type nvflash --list and all adapters are listed). If then wanting to flash add the adapter name before the file to flash, e.g.: nvflash i1 vbios.rom (assuming i1 is the Lightning's name and vbios.rom is the name of the file to flash). Nvflash will then just flash the Lightning.
If you have no other vga you are out of luck. A PC-Shop can recover it for you.

Also, just to be 100% safe: A UEFI/GOP vBios is backward compatible with a legacy MB right?
If the board is really legacy bios (no UEFI at all) then theoretically yes. Of course the board needs to be compatible to the latest GTX770 series cards. Old mainboards might run into compatibility issues apart from the vbios.

Then your card is for whatever reason not stable (e.g. insufficient power supply, software issue, too much cpu overclock or simply the card not making factory settings - rma issue -).

Don't download vbioses from third party sites. The uploaders mostly have no clue of these files themselves. There is nothing newer than you got from Svet. Don't experiment.

Gtx 770 upgrade

Okay if anyone can give me an idea of what is going on with my pc, I just got a GTX 770(from a HD 7770) and a new PSU Cosair TX650M I'm running a HPE H9 1180 i7 3770 12 gigs of ram and now sure what other specs are needed to diagnose this problem.
I get 3 beeps and it hangs at my hp screen when I try to get to my bios it doesn't let me get anywhere but the boot menu and it freezes there. I've disabled Uefi and enabled legacy. I've uninstalled the AMD drivers or so I think before installing. I didn't realize the computer has onboard graphics as well but I don't see the driver anywhere to disable it. I've tried drive sweeper for getting rid of the amd drivers.
Now this is what I don't understand really, once I get my pc to boot into windows after i keep hitting the num lock key once its in the boot menu it boots up windows and the GTX 770 is recoginized I even installed nvida drivers and played a game and launched a benchmark of ffxiv. I don't think its the issue of the card not being seated but it works or at least I think so any ideas guys I am really stumped. I may try a fresh install

Hi,

Req: GTX 770 TF 2GD5/OC VBIOS

Hi there.
I have an MSI GTX 770 (N770 TF 2GD5/OC)
S/N 602-V282-220B1309046698
I tried to update the VBIOS via MSI Live Update but I had issues, not 100% certain if my VBIOS was updated as it froze/hung but since then I have no display when my PC boots - I can boot into Windows just fine (Win8.0 x64) but I cannot get any display in the BIOS either via DVI or HDMI.
Other thing I notice is that it takes a much longer time to boot, usually from a cold boot to Windows's login screen it would take less than 10 seconds, but now it's much longer, maybe my BIOS is prompting me for something but since I have no display I cannot tell. Once Windows boots up, all is perfectly fine, though.
I have tried a few different VBIOS flashes for my GTX 770 since then but no joy in getting display in the BIOS.
I have the latest bios for my motherboard, an Asus P8P67-M Pro B3.
Everything is otherwise fine, Windows, gaming etc is all fine apart from no display during boot or BIOS.

Thanks, flashed, shutdown and started up again but no change. I don't get any display until the Windows 8 login screen.
Is there an older vbios I can try for my card? I'm wondering if it's not related to the UEFI GOP feature the new vbios's offer?
In case you need it, here's an output of nvflash:
