I'm stumped here. I flashed a friend's 5870 to 1.3v by setting it in the x18 register and it worked fine. I try changing my x18 register to my desired voltage (1.275v) and after flashing and going into Windows I get 1.125v under 3D load. I tried 1.3v with RBE but the same thing happened. I'm trying to edit the Asus unlocked BIOS (untouched by RBE).
However, I can use Afterburner to set the voltage I want. In fact, testing different voltages with Afterburner is how I came up with 1.275v, since I found out my card can do 1050/1300 stable with 1.275v. That said, I would much rather flash the desired voltage with RBE than having to run Afterburner every time.
I haven't tried changing other registers other than x18. I might try it when I get home. That said, no register (even x18) contains the value 1.125v.
I'm not touching Afterburner after flashing the card. I even uninstalled AB but it didn't help.
The Asus BIOS I'm using on both cards is this one: http://www.techpowerup.com/vgabios/56695/Asus.HD5870.1024.090915.html
Both cards are the same XFX model.
Any ideas?
