Need to try this as well. Getting K40m should be pretty easy on eBay. This whole project with vBIOS mod started because I just gave up on searching for the right resistors. IIUC, community on the forum hasn't figured out where those resistors go to except for the one going to the pin 6 on BIOS IC. So, modding was possible on somewhat similar cards (e.g. 660ti from different manufacturers), but not on completely different cards that do not share similar layout.
Now that I have boardviews for GK110B GPU board, we can find out where the resistor locations are! The boardview has all the markings necessary, so that makes life very easy here. Shouldn't be too hard I reckon.
So I just tried this on my K40m: PCI Subsystem ID is on line 650 PCI Device ID is on line 790
But the Nvidia Control Panel as well as Parsec seem to expect a monitor connected to the GPU which is obviously impossible Parsec error is: the host encoder failed to initialize
Quadro Nvidia control panel actually has the feature of enabling dummy monitors. If you’ve done the spoof trick shown here and it does not show in Nvidia Control Panel still, someone told me about using the 3rd party Nvidia driver unlocking tool which allows you to change different Nvidia registry information and other features, of which virtual display is present.
do you have a link to that tool I cant find it anywhere
The Nvidia Control Panel doesn't even open so I cant use that
Heya, just done this with a Tesla K40M on Quadro K6000 bios successfully. Its quite advantageous as you get proper boost control meaning you no longer have to use a third party tool + nvidia SMI to set clocks above that of the standard clocks.
Cheers

I would like to get it as well to properly trick parsec.
Found this via google, can someone explain the steps to flash the k40m to a k6000? What do you modify in the rom or do you need to modify that? Tricking parsec with a virtual monitor is simple enough, But NoMachine works without that, and actually RDP will get some acceleration, but not compatible with some older games. Do you still need Above 4g decoding in your bios once it's flashed? I'm looking for a way for my r710 to work with it, modified the hard bits but the driver doesn't want to cooperate so far.

Sorry its been a long time since I did this, if I recall correctly you swap the PCI IDs in a few locations via a hex editor and then you can just flash the bios straight on. It will also give you working fan control with curves should you wish to wire a fan on.
Hi, I know this is an old project and understand if everyone has moved on, but I have flashed my K10 and it all went through. However, it is still being listed as a K10 in Device Manager but I can install the "Game Ready" version of the drivers; should the device change name in Device Manager?
These two graphics cards appear to have the same GK110B chips, so this might as well be possible using the same vBIOS modification mentioned earlier on the README.MD. I know some folks on the EEVBlog own this K40, so we could get this tested.
Tesla K40 appears to have GK110-890-A1, or 897-B1, Cannot confirm at the moment. Quadro K6000 has GK110-890-B1
I do have a boardview for the GTX 780 which features the GK110, so if we need the location of any PCI ID resistors, that should be pretty easy to find.
