It's actually a good question. I'm actually not certain what is contained in a videocard bios that would affect performance. I would guess all of the voltage to frequency curve stored in bios? Should have I would guess all of the VRAM timings, frequency, voltage etc are. Is there other firmware on a gpu, or is most stuff contained within the driver? All of the software to drive the front-end should be in the driver, no? BIOS would have more general stuff like identifiers and interfaces for the drivers, no?
