Hello,
I have some experience with crossflashing VBIOS, as I previously did it and found the circuit boards to be almost identical to the second one. Now I'm wondering whether it's necessary or not to crossflash VBIOS from Gainward to Zotac AMP Extreme Airo. I only found a Zotac XMP Airo PCB for Gainward RTX 4080 Super Phoenix, but not for the RTX 4080. I'm not sure about the details like controllers, MOSFETs, or phase design on the Gainward card. Could you share your thoughts and experiences? Thanks.

I'm not sure, but if the cards are disposable, you can proceed. If not, skip it. For overclocking, stick to the traditional method and use VBIOS designed for your specific card.

The only thing stopping me is the power limit. Otherwise, I wouldn't even think about crossflashing.

I attempted crossflash using GALAX bios and it functions perfectly without any issues. Now my core clock is significantly higher (potential) than before, thanks to increased power limits.
