good news, [Request] Gigabyte G5 KC Bios Unlock/ Mod - #21 by Sweet_Kitten
this is the thread i know I used.
here is where I think I did the bios dump on the SSD. Guessing the mod.bin is the modified firmware. with the other being my original firmware?
I bought this one,

is this all I need? or do I need a 1.8v board like this as well?

Would I download outsyde’s flashrom devel for windows at the end of this thread?
Just making sure, and @Sweet_Kitten I could also use some help with what settings to enable, I can tell you what I am trying to achieve with the bios mod.
I bricked the first attempt due to accidentally setting the wrong one andjust got fan spin/no display but would stay booted.
After trying to reflash (with what I think bad software) at the repair shop, i am thinking flashing the modded bios with my settings should just work.
would either program work just fine with what my laptop has? did I buy the right flasher?
