I think he got the right pins shorted, I had an RX 460 with the same exact chip and I believe I've managed to resurrect it that way. The wrong thing you're doing here is keeping the pins bridged during the whole process, you have to cut the bridge once you're in DOS or Windows. So let's make...

Don't worry my friend, a lot of people here are willing to help. I searched for your flash memory and here are the pins you need to short.. Watch for that little dot printed on the chip, it should guide you. Make sure not to short any other components around the chip, good luck.

Maybe you've bridged the wrong pins, the 1-8 pins are usually facing each other. Google for the datasheet, then look at the mechanical drawing: Note the position of the little notch and the dot near pin 1

If you're good with soldering, you can try shorting #1 + #8 pins on the BIOS chip, that will force a low reading on the chip. Refer to this thread for more information.

Did you try to flash it with atiflash under DOS? If not, it worth give it a try before purchasing the flasher.

Here it's, hope it's there.

That was one good observation, hope things will go right with this card.

Oh that's an RX580, the previous owner probably thought that he can unlock it into RX 590, and flashed it with an RX 590 bios!

The driver managed to detect it as an RX 590 card so it's an RX 590' BIOS and according to gpu-z it's able to auto detect the vram vendor, if it's a wrong BIOS, it should've at least reported a correct memory info. I'm not sure tbh, but yeah it's still worth a shot to find out and get the...

Good point! My apologizes.

That means power is delivered to the chip, it's more likely that the chip is defective but graphics cards are not that simple, It still could be some failing components on the board. Heating on the chip with a hot gun is your best chance now, that won't fix it permanently but will resurrect it...

Well, I'm assuming that you've been scammed and no way you can return that card, cause if you can you should take that road. For now just make sure you're connecting the 2x8 power cables, use the ones you powered RX 580 with, we are sure they're intact. check if the card fans are spinning once...

Are you plugging your old RX 580 in? If so, what happens if you boot with RX 590 only?

Try to clear CMOS by removing the battery off the board.. First, drain any power by disconnecting the power cord, then keep pressing the power button for a while. Locate the battery on the board then remove it, wait a couple of minutes Now reverse the whole process, put the battery back...

Thank you guys for your concern! I really don't see any way could bring my money back, it's gone with the wind. I made the deal with the guy on OLX a platform similar to eBay, we arranged an appointment so I met him face to face yeah, he now simply refuse to admit that the card was defective...
