Hey my gpu has a set temperature limit of about 75 degrees celsius. After reaching this temperature the gpu slows down and i cant play my games anymore. Unfortunately i cant set the temp limit with nvidia inspector because it is locked in vbios of gpu i think! Can someone provide me the bios (.rom) of my GPU so i can flash it myself?
Mx 250 - 10DE-1d13
Bios: 86.08.2A.00.7C
Update:
There is a tool that attempts to extract a VBIOS from a bios update
Laptops with NVIDIA Optimus graphics often have the dGPU VBIOS integrated in their system BIOS, this makes extracting the VBIOS a complicated process. Provided you have a BIOS Update for your laptop, this tool might be able to automagically extract all available VBIOS from it.
Update:
Productnumber : 8KS69EA#ABD

Please follow the below steps and check.
Right-click your desktop background and select NVIDIA Control Panel. You can also find this tool by performing a Start menu (or Start screen) search for NVIDIA Control Panel or by right-clicking the NVIDIA icon in your system tray and selecting Open NVIDIA Control Panel.
To quickly set a system-wide preference, you could use the Adjust image settings with the preview option. For example, if you have old hardware that struggles to play the games you want to play, you may want to select “Use my preference emphasizing” and move the slider all the way to “Performance.” This trades graphics quality for an increased frame rate.
By default, the “Use the advanced 3D image settings” option is selected. You can select Manage 3D settings and change advanced settings for all programs on your computer or just for specific games. NVIDIA keeps a database of the optimal settings for various games, but you’re free to tweak individual settings here. Just mouse-over an option for an explanation of what it does.
If you have a laptop with NVIDIA Optimus technology — that is, both NVIDIA and Intel graphics — this is the same place you can choose which applications will use the NVIDIA hardware and which will use the Intel hardware.
