MSI Geforce CTX 660ti Power Edition

Hi All,
I have been wondering if I should flash my Bios. I have A Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit OS.
How do I flash my bios without Svet? (Instructions)
Where do I get the software\rom to do so?
Thank you

you no need to flash it if you have no issues, you can check it with Live update

  • PC suddenly restarts while playing games MSI 660Ti Power Edition OC 2GB

    Hi,
    I have the following problem since I replaced my graphics card (before 9800GTX+, now MSI 660Ti Power Edition 2GB) I got 3 random restarts while playing games. The computer is not overheating, the CPU's temperature is around 58-59 degrees after running prime95 for 3 hours. The graphics card temperature is 70 degrees after running furmark for 1 hour, the stress tests never failed, just when running games. The computer has been stable. For case cooling im using (2X12cm front, rear 1X14cm below 1X12cm and above 1X12cm +1 X14cm).
    I got two random system restarts while playing Doom 3 BFG and one system restart after playing Wolfenstein for 4 hours. The PC just restarts itself.
    What could be wrong? I have no more ideas? Should I replace the CPU cooler (im running the stock CPU cooler but all stress tests dont show overheating?!)
    Is it possible that the PSU is the reason, but it should be strong enough ...
    The system:
    GA 870A-UD3
    AMD Phenom II 1090T (cooler box)
    MSI GeForce 660Ti Power Edition OC 2GB
    12GB RAM (12GB Kit 3X4GB DDR3 Kingston Genesis 1600)

    OS: Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit
    Thank you.

    The temps for the graphics card are quite normal. I have the same one and under load it will go to 70 to 75C, depending on ambient. What Nvidia driver are you using? Did you do a new driver installation?
    If I look at your CPU though, then you are very close to the max CPU temp and throttling may invoke the shutdown    http://products.amd.com/en-us/DesktopCPUDetail.aspx?id=640&f1=&f2=&f3=&f4=&f5=&f6=&f7=&f8=&f9=&f10=&f11=&f12=
    62C is max.
    Could also be your PSU that's not completely stable and continuous power draw may cause Overcurrent or overtemp protection. Speculating here as to probable causes.
    Another possibility is your RAM. That should normally be paired in 2's. Have you tested with only 2 modules ? Remember we don't support that MB here, but its just another test I would run. But you would know, probably having run it like that with the previous GPU.

  • MSI GTX570 TwinFrozr III Power Edition: Unstable at stock unless fan is 100%

    Hello Everyone,
    I got my GTX 570 TwinFrozr III Power Edition yesterday and I like it a lot.  I've been testing it and running it through various benchmarks and games to find the best stable overclocks with Afterburner.  By doing this I noticed a few things that lead me to question if there is a problem.
    Before I started trying to overclock, I ran the card at the stock settings 770core/1540shader/2000memory @ 0.962v and tried various benchmarks and stress tests.  Immediately I noticed there were errors and artifacts.  I tried to increase voltage and I noticed that the artifacts and errors were going away, so I thought maybe my VID was too low...  at 1.012v it seems to be error free at stock settings.
    I tried another thing as well, I left the card at stock VID (0.962v) and put the fan speed to 100% and I noticed all errors and artifacts completely gone.  So I lowered fan speed to 70% because 100% is too loud for me and 70% is still pretty loud but it's better...  I found that at 70% I still got some errors but not a lot.  Let me just say that my GPU Core temperatures are amazing. never over 62c.
    So now I don't know if there is a problem with my card or the factory just gave it too low of stock VID.  I think it's kind of weird that at stock settings that the card would produce artifacts and errors unless the fan speed is at 100%.  I'm guessing MSI factory tested stock overclocks with 100% fan speed?
    I love this card, but if I ever resell in the future and someone installs this card they will think its broken.
    Let me just state that finally, the card is an overclocking monster.  I am now at 950core/1900shader/2300memory @ 1.082v without any errors...  The only problem I have is that when I run unigine heaven I see some of these graphical anomalies.  Here's an example I found online which is exactly what I see.  http://fotohost.lv/images/n6azp80ru74so1ecp009.jpg
    So far I'm not sure what the cause is for that... but I think that when I put the fan at 100% I didn't see it.  I could be wrong, but I will test again when I wake up tomorrow.
    Thanks MSI.

    Thanks for the reply Henry, but the problem here is that it wasn't stable from the factory at their settings.
    Do you understand how this can be problematic for me if I ever decided to sell the card?  It is no problem for me to raise the voltage at all.  I think this card is phenomenal, but if I ever sold this card to someone else who doesn't want to or know how to overclock or adjust voltages, it would be classified as a broken or faulty video card.
    Also scratch the stability at 100% fan speed.  I still get some errors, although not many.  The card seems to be stable around 1.018 volts at default overclocked settings.
    I just didn't expect MSI to make a mistake on the stock VID.  If there were a way for them to fix it through a bios update it would be great. 
    Edit: Just for the record, the card is a great overclocker and is very stable.  The only gripe I have is that it isn't stable at default frequencies unless I bump voltage to 1.018.  This is no problem for me, but if I ever were to sell this card, I would have to have a disclaimer that it is unstable unless you put voltage higher?
    I'm just trying to figure out if this could be some oversight on MSI's part and if it isn't, could my card not have been quality inspected?

  • MSI GTX570 TwinFrozr III Power Edition: Unstable at stock settings | SPLIT

    Hello,
    Same problem with my card also same model GTX 570 Twin Frozr III Power Edition/OC not stable at stock clocks 770/4000 (artifacts on 3DMark 11)
    I even plan do not OC it and stay on default clocks for now, but today I start bechmarks and notice only in 3DMark 11 artifacts (red sqares/dots) in others benchmarks I don't noticed any, or in games.
    I bought it 3 days ago and I thinking to exchange it for another, what are you think is worth ? or could you here help me somehow ? I see is possible to upgrade new updated bios with higher voltage.
    Is it 100% safe to flash this in Windows 7 64bit ?
    I don't know how to check which voltage is enough for stock clocks ? Is that cards was not tested before they go to market ?
    As I know I have to increase the voltage by MSI Afterburner Core Voltage (mV) a little and checking stability/artifacts ?
    I checked orginal default voltage VDDC in GPU-Z and is 0,9120V at idle, and 0,9880V at stress.

    Quote from: PeterMac on 16-May-11, 21:09:35
    I rec video how it's work on default
    You think other one should be good ? or maybe all of this cards are not stable on defaults voltage/clocks
    Not for all, it should work as is.
    Eventually can be fixed with bios update, with voltage bump
    So either try bump the voltage until it makes stable then i can make a bios for you,
    or rma it

  • 660Ti Power Edition OC TDP throttling - did MSI finally make any BIOS fix?

    Hi
    The reason why I'm going back to this topic is the fact, that before my card throttled over 101% TDP even if I set power target to 114% but it happened only in benchmarks.
    Sadly, recently I started to play Sleeping Dogs and even without overclocking, after setting power target to 100%-114% (no matter what value it is) my card throttles when it reaches 101% TDP. Now this worries me - this wasn't a problem when it happened in benchmarks, but it is a problem when my FPS are falling down because card throttles from stock 1228 MHz max kepler boost to much lower values. Sleeping Dogs maxed out is my first game which reached over 100% TDP.
    AFAIK this is a common issue and it was also mentioned with GTX 670 cards, where You can flash Galaxy Bios and fix the issue (still wondering why MSI didn't fix it and Galaxy did but that's a whole different story ).
    Is there any bios for 660Ti which will fix this? Or should I just RMA it? Please help

  • MSI Geforce 8800GTX 768mb OC Edition memory bus

    In the nvidia control panel the memory bus (Factory shipped clock frequencies setting) is set to 1000 instead of 2000! Core bus is normal to 610. I also realized that if i increase the memory speed it goes only up to 1200? Remember, this is the OC Edition! Any suggestions? (Drivers installed: 162.22 vista 64bit)

    Quote from: flobelix on 20-July-07, 03:32:33
    Well... NO! control panel shows real clock 1000mhz, that's 2000mhz effective ( 1000mhz DoubleDataRate = 1000 x 2 = 2000!). So don't worry everything's ok.

    Looks like you will need to contact MSI and see if there are any unlisted updates. The only UEFI bios for the 46s is the one Svet posted.
    >>How to contact MSI.<<
    Have you flashed the mainboard's bios to the most recent version?
    I contacted MSI support team and here is the answer:
    "sorry. MSI did not release that card(602-V284-46Sxxxx) UEFI BIOS, so we do not kown this BIOS GK104.rom if appropriate to your graphics card,so we suggest you update the  original BIOS."
    They do not wan't to help me because I haven't got the official version of uefi bios. How could that be even possible? Was the bios that you sent me the official one (from MSI) or the modified one?
     

  • MSI GTX570 TwinFrozr III Power Edition: Unstable at stock settings

    Hello,
    This is a continuation of this thread:
    https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=148321.0
    But to summarize the issue, the card is not stable at stock speeds of 770 core, 1540 shader, 2000 memory.
    The stock voltage on this card is 0.962 and may have not been quality tested enough at the factory.  With my testing I found that the voltage needed for stability at these stock values is +68 to core voltage in Afterburner (1.031v).  I used OCCT 15 minute stress test to verify there were no errors.  Anything under 1.031v showed errors at auto fan speeds.
    I was told by Henry that I should request a modified vbios from Svet.  I am experienced enough to flash the video card, but I want to know if this will void my warranty. 
    Again, this card is wonderful and overclocks very well, the only problem is that it isn't stable at stock and if I were to ever sell the card to someone who is not experienced enough to over volt or overclock, this card would be assumed as defective.

    Quote from: gl0ry on 02-May-11, 07:29:21
    Thanks Svet,
    I sent you my S/N.  Yes, 1.031v seems perfectly stable for stock with auto fan.  I am testing one more time to be certain and so far it seems fine.
    Also, a question that was never answered.  If I flash the bios with the one that you supply, I am still under warranty, correct?

  • MSI R7850 POWER EDITION 2GD5/OC vs TWIN FROZR 2GD5/OC

    I had to do an RMA with MSI for the R7850 POWER EDITION 2GD5/OC I had, and it turns out they don't have anymore inventory of it, so I'm accepting a R7850 TWIN FROZR 2GD5/OC as a replacement.
    The only differences I can spot immediately are that I may lose voltage control, the Core clock comes slightly lower, and the heatsink is model III instead of IV.
    I imagine I can just overclock with Afterburner if needed to up the core clock; I'm wondering if voltage control could also be unlocked though? Also is there any other difference that I should be aware of?

    general difference between Power Edition and models with Twin Fozr,
    is that Power Editions has Enhanced PWM Design and offers triple voltage control [compared to regular model: + memory voltage and + Aux voltage]

  • MSI Power Edition N650TI PE 1GD5/OC and D975XBX2.

    Hello.
    I would like to make a upgrade, but I am able to afford only replacement of the videocard.
    My rig
    CPU Type - QuadCore Intel Core 2 Extreme QX6700
    Motherboard - Intel Bad Axe 2 D975XBX2 (Bios v2618 - 02.12.2007)
    RAM - Corsair Dominator CM2X1024-6400C4D (DDR2-800)

    Power Supply - Thermaltake Toughpower 850W
    OS - Windows XP 32bit (SP3)
    I was interested by the MSI Power Edition N650TI PE 1GD5/OC (PCIE 3.0) card as read that videocards of a 650 series are compatible to PCIE 1.0 x16.
    I would like to consult with you before purchase.
    It is very important for me:
    - Videocard has to work reliably in XP.
    - Performance of the PC shouldn't be lower than with the old videocard.
    In the Geforce GTX 650 Ti user manual it is told that it uses 6-pin connector.
    Is it the same connector as for 8800 GTX?
    Sorry for my bad english.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hello.
    I just found a review of a buyer of MSI Power Edition N650TI PE 1GD5/OC in Newegg.
    This review disturbed me very much.
    Quote:
    Not PCI express 1.x compliant as MSI states, and the PCI standard mandates. I have tried this in 3 older (still
    powerful) PCIe 1.x computers, and none work correctly. Anything that relies only on the GPU (like games, and all of
    the benchmark tools out there) work fine, but anything that requires higher bandwidth between the motherboard and
    video card (like watching a movie) looks terrible with all sorts of rendering defects that get worse with more
    movement (higher bandwidth). Tested the same card on a PCIe 2.0 system (which is actually slower than one of mine)
    and it worked fine, so I know the card is good. I also know the motherboards are good because I have older PCIe 2.0
    cards in them that work fine.
    Could you please comment on this?
    Thanks in advance.

  • MSI NEW P.E. Series Video Card - GTX670 Power Edition 2GD5/OC with Twin Frozr 4

    Glad to be back in the forum and I was been busy for awhile. By this time lots of PC hardware already came out especially from Nvidia. Just like today my share would be MSI's N670GTX PE 2GD5/OC video card.
    First of all lets talk about the GTX670 GPU chip. This GPU is the younger sibling of GTX680 which uses the same 28nm GK104 chip but with one disabled shader cluster/core.The reference or standard GPU clock is 915Mhz with a turbo boost of 980 and as for the memory is concerned, it has a 256bit memory bus connected to a 2GB GDDR5 memory with speed of 6008Mhz. Just like with any Kepler based architecture, the card would also have all the goodies like "Adaptive V-Sync", "AA TXAA (Temporal Super Sampling)", supports "DX11.1" and improved 3D Vision Surround.
    Moving on, let's check out now what MSI did with their GTX670 SKU based video card. The card is under a new Series named "Power Edition" (series comparison table below) and it comes factory overclocked from GPU clock of 915MHz to 1020MHz and Turbo boost of 980Mhz to 1080Mhz. It also comes with the 4th version of Twin Frozr Thermal Cooling design with a theme color of Black and Blue which matches the color of MSI's midrange to high-end motherboards as well. The dual 8cm PWM fan based cooler are equipped with Propeller Fan Blades which draws air better and now has the so called "Dust Removal Technology", basically as you startup your PC the fan will rotate counter clockwise for 30 seconds clearing the dust from the cooling heatsink. Adding a finishing touch, MSI equipped the video card with their Military Class III components ensuring the best performance, efficiency, higher overclocks and durability.

  • MOVED: Display driver stopped responding and has recovered. MSI GTX 670 Power Edition

    This topic has been moved to Graphics Cards.
    https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=251843.0

    Hey there,
    Noticed that my BIOS drivers were outdated so i updated them (Z68A-GD65 G3, version: 25.8), after all the reboots i logged on my computer, started teamspeak, and while searching for the teamspeak room the driver problem happened again.
    Anyway, my power supply is NOX Hummer 80 600W, model: HUM80600.
    The problems started on September of this year i think? I've had this computer for almost 3 years now. I have the latest Nvidia drivers, and this still happens, i've tried downgrading, fresh installing, and nothing worked.
    Graphics card: MSI GTX 670 Power Edition 2GB GDDR5 PCI-E 3.0 DirectX11, S/N: 602-V284-02SB1207063830.
    I'll try it tommorow if possible.
    Thank you for the attention.
