Zondag is versie 1.13 van Radeon Bios Editor op het Techpowerup-forum verschenen. Dit programma is voor ATi-videokaarten wat Nibitor is voor Nvidia-videokaarten: het programma maakt het namelijk mogelijk om het bios van de videokaart aan te passen, zodat bijvoorbeeld overklokinstellingen permanent op de kaart kunnen worden weggeschreven. Het voordeel hiervan is dat de juiste instellingen meteen actief zijn bij het inschakelen van de computer, zodat ze onafhankelijk van besturingssysteem en overklokprogramma's zijn. Hieronder is te vinden wat er allemaal in het programma veranderd is sinds de vorige vermelding in de meuktracker:
Changes in version 1.13Changes in version 1.12
- 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 on any strange behaviour.
- Added one-click update functionality for some 48x0 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 1.11
- 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 can not 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.
