KFA2 RTX 2060 Mini BIOS Update to Non-mini version

[deaddecember]

Hello

Recently I have bought used KFA2 RTX2060 Mini (product number 26NRL7HP09BK) - https://www.kfa2.com/kfa2/graphics-card/20-series/kfa2-geforce-rtx-2060-mini-1click.html
Which is not even available in the TechPowerUp database

I was confused a little, because I expected that this card will have stop-to-idle/0rpm feature as was mentioned here in KFA2 RTX2060 review (not mini): Galax / KFA2 GeForce RTX 2060 1-Click OC review - real savings buns or forced minimalism? | igorsLAB | Page 6 | igor´sLAB

So now the question: Is it possible to update BIOS on my GPU with version from non-mini variant from the review ?

Official KFA2 page does not have an updates for my card, only for the reviewed one, non-mini version of KFA2 RTX2060:

2060 1660Ti 1660 Bios update

Fan stop/stop-to-idle feature is crucial for me, that's why I would like to update the BIOS.

Thanks!

We can't guarantee it will work, and it might possibly brick your card, which then you would need a system that has an igp or a spare gpu to recover, or a green pcb spi flasher

Open gpu-z, get a screenshot of it, then click the arrow next to the uefi checkbox and attempt to upload the bios to the vga bios collection, you should receive a prompt stating the bios is already in the collection with a link to it, copy and paste that link here.

Upload your screenshot here, also get a pic of the white stickers located on the back of the card

Also last i recall gtx 1000- RTX4000+ you cannot mod the bios, only crossflash it

Other solutions to your problem is to sell your card and get 1 that has that function, or put a fan on with a rheostat/potentiometer and external temperature gauge
