Download TechPowerUp Radeon Bios Editor 1.13

Version 1.13 of Radeon Bios Editor was released on the Techpowerup forum on Sunday. This program is for ATi video cards what Nibitor is for Nvidia video cards: the program 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. Below you can find what has changed in the program since the previous entry in the muck tracker:

Changes in version 1.13

• Added the checksum calculation method WinFlash uses because for some files, the checksums differ. See built-in-FAQ for more on this.
• Improved checksum balancing algorithm to capture this. This is a completely new method, so there might be some minor bugs, but it is guaranteed to not corrupt any file. Notify me of any strange behaviour.
• Added one-click update functionality for some 48×0 cards which corrects a well known “spin-up bug” and improves powerplay (power saving functionality).
• Added method for overdrive limit increasing. Still experimental, read built-in help text before using this. Power users only!
• Fixed bug with not properly displayed overdrive limits.

Changes in version 1.12

• Added display for GDDR5 (for 4870 and future cards).
• Added check for corruption of GDDR5 BIOSes.
• Fixed bug with all voltages being “—“.
• The lock for clock info is now unchecked by default.
• Added command line feature for automated BIOS loading.
• Added profile editor to edit CCC settings that cannot be modified using the CCC.
• Added support for 4870 X2 (experimental).
• Fixed checked “pre-modified” checkbox on plain 4870 BIOSes.
• Added more clock info modes to meet the needs of Radeon mobility BIOSes.
• Improved some internal things.

Changes in version 1.11

• Fixed values ​​written if look up table is used.
• Improved method of clock rates detection (old method was not working properly with some weird BIOSes).
• Added some FireGL device IDs.
• Added some stuff to the in-program FAQ.
• Updated link to WinFlash.
• Fixed little bug occurring writing some BIOS infos.
• Fixed some confusion regarding 3650 cards.
