DisplayPort x 1 / HDMI x 1 / DL-DVI-D x 1.Lets not also forget that you can not go all the way out and give it 200W TDP limit like some GTX 1080 cards have, because there is a limit in the EC, if you set the TDP too high the EC will pull the plug and will not allow the laptop to boot. ( increasing this limit in the EC is only possible by the devs at Acer) Tl dr: Possible to flash a vBIOS with higher TDP, however removing the Winbond chip (which stores the vBIOS) and flashing manually with an SPI programmer is the only way.

There are only 2 ways to flash a vBIOS with higher TDP (and unlocked TDP slider in MSI Afterburner):ġ) wait for Acer to release one (they can edit the vBIOS and use their developer kit from Nvidia to sign it) -> close to 0% chance to happenĢ) edit the vBIOS on your own and use an SPI programmer like the CH341A or the RT809F (it is much more expensive than the CH341A , but much more reliable) īecause it is not signed it is not possible to flash via software because when the flashing starts the software checks for a valid signature if none is found the flashing process is aborted. However the problem is that the the Pascal vBIOS is using an RSA key encryption and if you edit the vBIOS at home this encryption will loose it's signature. With higher TDP limit the GPU could boost higher and could achieve the same performance without OC as it gets now with OC. Yes it is possible to unlock the TDP limit of the GPU.
