    Hi!

    I am looking for new vbios for my Ati 4850m (msi brand green one). Card is mxm 2.1 type from my GT725. This is my current bios and yes I made some small overclock. Can someone help?

    Did you look here? https://www.techpowerup.com/vgabios...r=&model=HD+4850&interface=&memType=&memSize=

    Just keep in mind the 4850 was also a desktop card so use the specs to match to the correct card. I personally only have an ATI branded BIOS for the red pcb 4850. Not sure if that would help or brick your card.

    Thanks I checked this site but it has only desktop msi cards. Red pcb is too risky for me. Was wondering what vbios is in Advent 7555gx (rebranded gt725), cant find any gpu-z pictures. Maybe it has new vbios as it was introduced a bit later....

    I realize it's been a while, but would you happen to have the 4850m card still?

    I think it would work if the cards are the same size as the 7900, 7950, 8700, 3870 and such from the M9700/M9750/M17 family. If a 3870m works then it should be good to go I assume. I have gotten a few malx's but I have always sold them without even taking them apart so I have actually never seen what card is in them. The only thing different about the 4850m physically is the extra tab on the master card. Ill get some pictures of the cards.
