    I am looking for the raw vBios file of the GE76 11UH RTX3080.
    So NOT the readily available update/flash .exe file, but the naked .rom file.

    Does anyone have this or would want to help me out and extract it with GPU-Z from your machine and give it to me?

    Please? Pretty please? :)

    Extra: Extracting the .exe file gives files that cannot be identified as the bios, it must be encrypted, but extracting from the machine after flashing it would give the raw bios file I'm looking for.

    Yeah I saw that, it looks really enticing. It's just that there is no laptop model mentioned.. the other bios there that is similar says it's from a GE76, which is what I need. I'd like a 100% confirmed GE76 11UH bios as that's the closest to mine possible.
    If that won't surface anytime soon.. I may have to try this one, see what happens :)

    So the 11UH bios flashes into my 10UH, but goes into OC protection. It says board power draw is 754W.. false of course.

    They work the 10UH VGA bios on the 11UH , and it will use a lot more power! But what I found is the HDMI 2.1 port BREAKS with the 11UH bios on 10UH Models and will output only 1080p60hz max. Only the 11UH bios files work giving us HDMI 2.1 4k120hz.

    If you don't use your HDMI out over 1080p it might be fine for some.

    I have the GP66-11UG and after the 140W 11UG/11UG RTX 3070 Bios.

    Nice to see you're still around. Haven't seen you for quite awhile.

    Yeah I lurk :)
    Also didn’t have any issues with laptops until recently nor did I have any useful comments.

    So that Vbios is the older model RTX 3080 GE76 10UH?

    With my GP66 11UG I flashed the GE76 RTX 3070 Vbios and got 5W more for no change in temps well maybe 1-2 degrees. Well worth it for a tiny boost in FPS when gaming.
