    Hi there, I am looking for a vBios from the 2080 max-q Zephyrus S15 or S17. Does anyone have one and would be willing to send a GPU-Z screenshot so I can check if it's compatible with my GS66 2080 max-q?

    I will much appreciate the help and will be willing to pay whoever can get a working GS66 90w 2080 max-q vBios and send it to me!

    I'm looking for the 2080 max-q super vBios from the new Zephyrus s17 too. I would try to flash it on my Zephyrus gx701gxr.
    Thanks.

    You cant flash a Super VBIOS on a non Super GPU.

    Exactly. Super has more shaders shaders than non Super. Since the underlying hardware is different, flashing would only brick things. If his GS66 has the Super variant, then it should work, however.
