Check your CPU/GPU temperatures before it shuts down.

GPU: 49°C CPU: 35°C

That's probably idle, when you doing nothing.

What are the temperatures under stress testing before it shuts down, I saw at least 58C on the GPU while running furmark in your screenshot.

It's a legacy product.

These appear to be the latest drivers:


The reason you got sub ID mismatch - it currently has a R9 380 BIOS, but the sticker indicates it is a R9 380X. This means it will have a different identifying code than the R9 380 BIOS that is currently on your card. You will have to override this safety using the method that VuurVOS has shown. I cannot guarantee that the BIOS I linked is correct, but it is the best I can do with the limited information available.

If it does not work, you will have to take your card apart and get us some more information.

It is the same bios. Its currently flashed on the card :)

@Cuz29 Can you flash this bios? Its slightly lower clocked.
  1. Download the vbios from https://www.techpowerup.com/vgabios/231277/231277
  2. Rename file 173888.rom to R9380X_2.rom
  3. Move or copy R9380X_2.rom to c:\atiflash_293
  4. Open cmd line as administrator and execute the following commands:
    • cd c:\atiflash_293
    • amdvbflash.exe -unlockrom 0
    • amdvbflash.exe -f -p 0 R9380X_2.rom
  5. Reboot system

Yep, I missed that.

I noticed it is now detecting Elpida VRAM. That BIOS had support for both Elpida and Hynix. I doubt we can reliably find a BIOS without confirming what VRAM is actually on the card.

Can you show the output of GPU-Z and then run furmark?

  1. Download the vbios from https://www.techpowerup.com/vgabios/183124/183124
  2. Rename file 183124.rom to R9380X_3.rom
  3. Move or copy R9380X_3.rom to c:\atiflash_293
  4. Open cmd line as administrator and execute the following commands:
  5. cd c:\atiflash_293
  6. amdvbflash.exe -unlockrom 0
  7. amdvbflash.exe -f -p 0 R9380X_3.rom
  8. Reboot system

From our local guru:

This is alternate way:

Create a new text file in your ATIFlash directory, name it FLASH.bat, and place this code into it:

@Echo off
cls

echo Flashing card 0 with BIOS.rom...
echo.
amdvbflash -p 0 -f BIOS.rom
echo.

pause
Assuming the new BIOS you want to flash onto your card is named BIOS.rom, this is the BIOS it will use for flashing.

Save your changes, then run the batch file by double-clicking on it.

Once you've received a success message, reboot your computer for the new BIOS to come into effect. If you can boot into Windows successfully, then that's good!

Note that BIOS.rom must match the name of the BIOS you downloaded.

right and run cmd again for flash?
If the downloaded BIOS is named BIOS.rom, save the file as a .bat. Then right click and run the batch file. Reboot.
