Power up gtx 680 4gb GPU Currently I'm running a flashed 680, but the vram for some apps it's too low, so I found a pretty cheap working 680 4gb and I was going to flash it like this one but this comes with the 8pin,i read on Mac rumors for us that you can run it just connecting the 6 pin on it, I saw the 6 pin to 8 pin cable too, but my main. Yes I know a GTX 680, but how much memory, what clocks? Is there a chance that you can get it to work, as you are the one with the most knowledge abaout Mac EFI roms here. If you want to, I can assist you with testing. I own an EVGA GTX680 Class. Boinx fotomagico pro 5.0.3 %2b full serial for mac. It seems like there are other vendors (M.S.I) releasing some sort of hybrid roms (UEFI/BIOS).

it really looks like that nvflash isnt able to successfully write to the eeprom.
the thing i want to try out is program this little bitch with an external programmer.
but i dont understand how since the bios dump is only 179kb and the eeprom has 256kb of space.
another way i was thinking about was to edit the device id.How To Flash Gtx 680 For Mac
but i dont know how.How To Flash Nvidia Gtx 680 For Mac
Buy Gtx 680
the 660ti is '10DE 1183'the 680 is '10DE 1180'
so.. does anybody in here got an idea or can tell me how to write the 179kb bios file to the eeprom ?
