Hi there,
I've been using a GTX560 Ti TF II/OC for a while now, which has been working perfectly fine - even with moderate OC from 880 -> 930, etc.
I've now purchased and installed a new, 2nd card (exact same model) in SLI. The boxes are identical, and the bar code labels on the box and the card both state that it is indeed the exact same model. However, a couple of details are slightly confusing and concerning;
1. It appears to have an additional, black clamp, securing the heat sink to the PCB, which my old one doesn't have.
2. In Afterburner it appears just as "MSI GTX560 Ti" as opposed to "MSI GTX560 Ti TF II/OC" like my other one.
3. It runs quite a lot hotter, idle or load. As the top card it hits almost 100C in benchmarks. As the bottom card it hits 80C. Whilst the old card (#1), runs roughly 10C cooler, in both idle and load.
When I checked in GPU-Z, they were identical except for the VBIOS versions:
#1 (old card) was on 70.24.11.00.02.
#2 (new card) was/is on 70.24.2E.00.2.
So I searched and saw this thread and decided to use nVflash to flash them both. So I did all the preliminary checks, backed the originals up, etc. but although nvflash detects both cards, it seems that only #1 (old card) matches this BIOS, so I proceeded to flash it without issues. I then removed #1 from my system (physically), put #2 in its PCI-E slot, and ran nVflash again, but it still doesn't think it's eligible.
I'm guessing this is down to being different revisions or similar. I think the old one, #1, has a GUID of 2382 1462, whilst #2 (new card) is 2385 1462. Can anyone point me in the direction of the latest BIOS that will work for my new card?
And I have the same heating issue as discribed by T4Sc. Maybe there is an issue with these cards since the have the same GUID and Bios as my 2nd card.
Can a new bios fix this?
Thanks in advance!

Ok thanks!
For flashing I am assuming to use the nvflash-tool and change te extention to '.rom'?
