Tesla M2090 6Gb gaming fun

[masterdeejay]

Yes, it is light oc-d with the russian k20x bios.

954mhz core, 1450mhz vram

I found a forum post claiming that Tesla C2075 shades are just soft locked and we can get full performance out of it. Now I can't figure this out at all, but would anytime here know what this bios mod requires?

I have a C2075 at hand to try as well as an M2090 atm. I probably won't resell these for a while.

Found it!


I dont have time to test is, i also have a C2075 but now i have other projects (Tesla M40 and Radeon MI8)

Next fun card is an AMD Instinct m8 that you can use for gaming.

https://www.miyconst.com/Blog/View/...etailed-review-and-tests-cooling-bios-drivers

Pros:
very good price (105 euro with coupon, free shipping in EU)
performance is good for FullHD gaming (but not all ultra setting because 4gb vram) like GTX1060-1070
newer used new card (from slovakian webshop, 1y warranty in EU)
not good for miners

Const:
only 4gb vram
only one DP port that hidden (still better than tesla cards without output)
needs additional cooling
no updated drivers (but there is modded new drivers called nimez)
card made in 2016-2017 so possible that thermal paste needs to replaced

This didn't work. I have a 84kbit BIOS. Unfortunately, nvflash let me flash the 64kbit one and now it's corrupted. I still get an image, but I can't flash it back to the 84kbit one due to "PCI block corrupted" error, so I will have to flash it with a hardware programmer in the coming days. If you have any idea how to do this via software to save me the hassle, let me know.

Would be nice if you could mod my BIOS too, I'll let you know if it worked.

Ok i modded it

i getting pci block corrupted size mismatch. dont know why.

Thank you. I hardware flashed my backup BIOS and things worked again. Unfortunately, I still get PCI block corrupt issue when trying to flash any other BIOS.
I tried your modded 84kbit one (hardware flash with EZP2019 again) and while it runs just fine, shaders aren't unlocked. So the unlock is probably way more complicated. I'll keep my card disassembled for a bit so I can test quicker, but I think I'll just put the backup on and resell it.

I'll give the Quadro 7000 BIOS a try. In this video, the Quadro 7000 BIOS seems to match his bios and clocks. Maybe that one needs to be modded?

According to this post there's secret register for Fermi core enablement at 0x022588. Quadro 7000 BIOS has it recognized as a Tesla C2075, but the DVI port stops working. Additionally, it's still stuckat 448 Shaders. I'll keepit disassembled and pack it away to mess around with later.

It can play games, if CF is working it is like a GTX1080 if not it is only GTX1060-1070. Needs modded active cooling, modded bioses, only one miniDP port.

I will not be answering questions privately. That is not what a public forum is meant for. Everything is going to be documented for future use many years down the road. If you cannot ask publicly, I'm afraid you're out of luck.

hello someone help me D:
I have an Nvidia Tesla m2050 3gb and I tried to convert it to quadro 5000, I already managed to change from tcc to wddm but when I try to flash it tells me id board and ID device,I already used other nvflash that don't ask for confirmation and still doesn't work I've been going crazy for 2 days and I'm going crazy thanks eat crazy chicken, sorry if it's another forum but here is the only one I found about Nvidia Tesla ;-;

Hello, sorry for reviving a dead post, but I wanted to ask you, is there any way to transform a Tesla K20C to a GTX 780?

I used this guide:
https://vk.com/@chclubb-tesla-k20-kak-ispolzovat-dlya-igr
(use google translate, it is russian)
There is no fan control in the modded bios, so you must make an external cable to a motherboard header.

Hey all, just wanted to chime in saying that thanks to this open forum/ guide I was able to get my Tesla M2090 (scored on one for $12 USD) up and running! I would like to thank Schaka, masterdeejay, and the YouTuber zWORMz Gaming (Discovered this project there) for inspiring this little project. Will be testing and trying out stuff as well as getting some overclocking figured out. Not sure what settings will be suitable, that will be fun nonetheless. Thanks again yall!
