Please Gigabyte, release a bios for idle fan speed on 30 %. GTX 580 SOC

That seems more like it now. Just a case of doing a bit of digging around until you come to the bit you need. Now you can have a nice quiet Christmas!

has anyone tried to ask gigabyte directly through ggts.gigabyte.com?
it could be worth to do it...
i don't have this card but if many users from different countries start to ask them then maybe they will do some bios to fix it ...just a thought

I've sent a ticket in waiting for a reply, seems that EVGA have there own fan fix for there 5series cards, wish i knew that earlier, hopefully gigabyte will follow suit, as i can't find a program to flash the card with the modded bios.

Thank you for the help guys, here's the bios i get from GPU-Z and a screen shot not sure if it helps, i understand the risk of flashing the bios, but if everythign works out i know it will be worth it, i spent so much time making my computer near silent, it's the only thing that lets it down. Hopefully Supernova can get his sorted to, sorry for hijacking the thread as well, i know how it feels.

Here ya go.You should be able to read BIOS in Nibitor and I changed it to 30%.Good luck man.




Not a problem man, I feel great that this thread can actually help some people

I gave up on gigabyte, i don't think there support is English, i did ask if they would issue fan fixes like EVGA have, they just said there isn't a bios, i gave up saying the same thing, a weeks wait for not very much, on the other hand the card plays games pretty well, roll on the 6series will defo keep an eye out on fan speeds with the next version, although think i'll look for an American/English company.

Hi Cutter

I know that GGTS can be a bit awkward to deal with but instead try PMing runn3R. He is the only Gigabyte official on this forum and is a tech so maybe he can help you. He is also the Forum Administrator.

Let us know how you get on please.

[Cutter]

Thanks Dark, message sent, will keep you updated.

Hi Cutter and All

There is a chance to prepare special bios(es) for this VGA. You need to provide exact SN and bios version (as GV-N56GOC-1GI has a few original bios versions) to us. Please use GGTS as below described. Thanks

Thank you so much runn3R, i raced on the forum when i saw your message, have sent a support ticket in and will let you  and others know when they get back to me, well happy if this all works out, thanks again for your help.

Thought i should come back and say how i got on, i give up with Gigabyte support, i finally sold the card on eBay, and bought a AMD 6870 Sapphire, my pc is now silent, thanks for everyone help anyway, glad it's over for me.
