    I have the elusive Quadro 5000M in my M6500 Covet and I found out there's a newer/November 2010 vBIOS available on TPU: https://www.techpowerup.com/vgabios/160057/160057

    But I can't seem to find out what's different, I tried HxD comparing it to my current September 2010 vBIOS but of course it's giving me a load of gibberish as it's a vBIOS file.

    That is a verrrrrry rare card . The bios is to fix voltage tables and security . I had this card in my m6400 with qx9300 it won't provide any performance improvement

    Honestly I'd keep the card un modified. it's so hard to find and they are going for over 300 online
