Gigabyte recently released a "T3" 6600GT with enhanced 1120mhz memory speeds. Since my vanilla Gigabyte 6600GT wasn't doing too good in terms of overclocking, I decided to try the new "T3" bios out.
I crossed my fingers, used the latest NVFLASH V5.1 and booted to DOS praying for success. I renamed the file to "6600GT.ROM" and flashed the bios. (command: a:/nvflash.exe 6600GT.ROM)
Not only was it successful, my ram overclock jumped from a meager 1080mhz OC to 1200mhz! This bios definitely has better timings or voltages for the RAM. Although my core overclock didn't improve, I was able to boost my 3DMark03 score from 8388 to 9049! link

Although you risk killing your hardware, for those who really want to squeeze more performance out of your 6600GT, try it out! I think this bios will kill your HDTV functionality, but I'm not sure.
