GTX 465 to GTX 470 unlock
January 25th, 2020
About a week ago i saw some topics that it can be unlocked to a gtx 470.
Only one guy has claimed that hes done it on a Leadtek card.
I checked the pcb of the card and it in fact has 10 chips like the gtx 470 should have. Here is a pic .
Sorry for low quality.
Anyway i checked it by looking at the pcb , didn’t wanna take the card apart just to see if there are enough chips . Please take a look and point it out to me if im wrong.
What are the chances i will fully unlock this card and it will work perfectly?
I don’t wanna brick it since its brand new and i can’t afford another one.
Also , i would need to get my hands on both gtx 465 and 470 bios so if anyone can help me there. And how do i backup the already existing bios?
What to do if i brick it?
Thanks for reading and kind regards 
if it works fine why try to modify it :p

You would only need the GTX470 bios, and a copy of NVFlash to flash it with – make a bootable USB stick for this, much safer than a floppy. To backup your GTX465 bios, you can use GPU-Z or NBiTor – it will let you dump your cards bios in Windows. If you accidentally brick your card, then you’ll have to do a blind flash – which isn’t so bad if you prepare a batch file, with all the commands and switches needed to auto-flash the card. Everything you need is at the site below – they’re down at the min though.

Nice card. Those black PCBs are pretty rare now. And yes took the words out of my mouth on this one

You wont get any bugs afaik. It just will work or wont work. If it didn’t work you can do the blind flash or even better if you got another card you could easily reflash it back.
Thanks all
