I have a leadtek a400 TDH and was checking out a few drivers etc. They have
a BIOS for my card that dated 10/27/2004 but my card has a BIOS version
5.40.02.12. Is this an update or not. would I gain anything for
overclocking or reliability.

TIA

I have had many generations of nVidia video cards, all overclocked at
one stage or another. Not once did I need ( or want ) to update the
BIOS. The very best way I know of turning a perfectly respectable
video card into a most expensive door-stop.

Using Winfox you can read the existing BIOS of your Graphics Card and find
out what date it is
