Download TechPowerUp Radeon Bios Editor 1.08

Last Thursday, version 1.08 of the Radeon Bios Editor was released on the TechPowerUp forum. This program is to ATi video cards what NiBiTor is to nVidia video cards; it makes it possible to adjust the BIOS of the video card, so that overclocking settings, for example, can be permanently written to the card. The advantage of this is that the correct settings are immediately active when the computer is switched on, so that they are independent of the operating system and overclocking programs. The changelog of this release looks like this:

Changes in version 1.08

• 99 % of code completely rewritten.
• Tab based front end implemented. Finally! 🙂
• You can now enter the fan hysteresis if lookup-table is used.
• No more pre-selection of video card type is required. RBE detects on itself now.
• You can re-open a BIOS saved with RBE now.
• Most of the BIOS information string can be changed now. However, this is not recommended and thus is a power user feature only.
• Several bug removed, including a crash when trying to load some improper files.
• Added some new bugs. Because most of the code is completely new, there will be some bugs for sure.
• Intelligent bug report system added to the code.
• Changed method to detect fan settings for 3xx0 cards. Should be more compatible now. Will reduce incorrect fan setting detection for most cards also.
• Improved checksum handling for even giant checksum differences.
• Filesize shrinked a litte because of more compact code.
• You can now unlock the states dependent lock if you like. The default setting is still locked for dependent states.

Changes in version 1.07

• First release for TechPowerUp.com.
• Added fan control setting for 2xx0 cards. oh yes! 🙂
