Question How can I flash my GPU's BIOS with Gigabyte software?

[javoplux]

I was recommended to update the BIOS of my GPU due to some problems I was having, but I don't know how to do it from the Gigabyte app. I don't know if it's from the Control Center or if it's from another application.

When does black screen happen? During Windows, games, when? What happens when it does black screen, do you need to forcibly restart?

It appears when I'm playing a game or watching a video, or when I'm not doing anything. Sometimes it happens as soon as I start the PC and it needs to be restarted, but there are times when even restarting it doesn't give me video.

Sounds like a defective GPU. If the BIOS is corrupted, then re-installing the existing version (the one you found) may help. Try it.

Is this GPU still under warranty?

Take a picture of the label. Upload to a site like imgur.com and then post a link here.

Parece que la GPU está defectuosa. Si la BIOS está dañada, reinstalar la versión existente (la que encontraste) podría solucionar el problema. Pruébalo.

¿Esta GPU todavía está en garantía?

Unfortunately, it no longer has a warranty.

This happens with both Displayport or Hdmi, able to try either? Try disable Gsync as well.

The one in the first link appears as unverified and it is the BIOS I already have. In any case, would it be necessary to reinstall the BIOS I already have?

If yours is corrupted, overwriting with the same version will correct the corruption.

It happens to me with both. I don't know how to disable G-Sync. My monitor has a G-Sync label, so I have it, but I don't know how to disable it.

That is something you change in Nvidia Control Panel.

Do you think I should try another version of the Nvidia drivers and disable GSync before flashing the BIOS? Or what do you think would be the best solution to my problem? I've tried versions 566.36 and 572.42. My last option would be 561.09.

Sure, no harm in trying different versions.

If I disable free sync, should I still disable gsync in the nvidia panel?

I really don't think this is your issue. Try it and see if it makes any difference.
