xfx rx480 8gb flashed to saphire rx580

Worked on my XFX RX480 GTR RX-480P8DFA6. I did not have any issues with display port not working. I also flashed back to stock and back to modified to make sure all was well.

good job. check out my first post if you have any stability issues. i go over a custom fan curve and how to get the card stable.

mind sharing the model of card you have and asic quality?
 
Well...flash didn't work for my RX 480 Red Devil. Got a SubsystemIDs mismatch error.
you need to force it.

atiwinflash -f -p 0 path/to/bios.rom

or if it's not the first card, adjust 0 accordingly. Will need elevated permissions.
 
Posting some experience..

My XFX RS 480, flash the rx580 bios, no tweaking, and its completly stable, just had to create a new fan curve, ands its rock solid!

I dont touch anything else in msi after burner... BTW, how can i check vrms temps in this gpu?

I just flashed it manually with the Zip Tools provided in first post and it works fine. I have same card and tested in so many ways.

Interesting fun stuff fellas, thanks OP.

Not much coverage or love for this el-cheapo RX480 from Powercolor I've got here. Single fan 4GB model https://goo.gl/qbXH9L

I got lucky on this, was on a crazy deal $220 CAD with MIR so about $209 CAD, anyways mine clocks in at 1350MHz/2250MHz (core/ram) and I can undervolt it at those clocks.

No one has supported this card in terms of any bios modifications.

It has a max power limit of +5%, but it doesn't seem to suffer from it, and can draw a lot of power.

Anyone wanna show some love for this card, and offer some support? Would be pretty cool, ultimate budget performance card, in terms of RX480s.

the rx580 i believe will have a 4gb variant that should be able to flash onto your card. its just a waiting game until a bios surfaces with similar memory as yours.
 
Many thanks OP for the topic!

Can I ask where did you find the BIOS you used for the new Sapphire RX 580 Nitro+ Limited Edition? I am also looking for a 4GB variant but on the Sapphire web page I do not even see the one you used...

the link is on the top of the first page. i dont think the 4gb bios is available as of yet.
 
@UP, thx guys!

Will then just wait patiently a bit more :)
I believe if this BIOS from Nitro+ LE worked for XFX card I should deffinitely try with my 480 Nitro+ 4GB (when some new BIOS show up).

@OP, can I ask what lvl of fps-improvement have you observed in Witcher 3 after flashing this new bios (more-less)?
