    It’s difficult without having the unit, I mean you can check device ID, number ports that could have the possibility matching your unit but I didn’t care about it. Just tried all that available on net if matches I’ll check the performance, ports functionality, battery life and use the better one.

    So I found a vbios, it's matching the Device ID but I don't see any "Refresh" brand. Is that important?


    vBios

    Edit: now im really confused. I found some RTX2070 Super maxQ vbios files and they also have the same DeviceID, now my fear is really big that I will find a false branded vbios for a 2070 super maxq and not mine.

    Yes Turing was a mess with that “refresh, super, Maxq, maxP”. That’s why I didn’t flash (in fact failed) when tried flashing 1070maxq (but now maybe could though didn’t really mind since however it can’t go to current setting level performance). I think you can flash whatever it’s named as long as not “super” or other level/gen gpu (xx80/30xx).

    So NVflash would allow me to use the HP 2070 MaxQ vbios i linked before. According to the TDP Tweaker, it has a target of 80-105w. I’m just not sure, it has the same device ID. Should I try?



    Edit: so I flashed the vbios and restarted. Still works. Will test it now. Also do I really have to reinstall the drivers? Or is this just hoax?


    Edit2: apparently it works. MSI Afterburner just showed me 105w ingame while benchmarking. Now I want to find a 115W vbios. My card peaks at 75C.
