    Vega 56 BIOS Recovery After GPU-Z Gave Corrupted Backup - Solved

    I just hope AMD's finewine is coming soon. I just hope RTG didn't lie about it. They didn't disclose any performance information on the unreleased features; however, if they don't ever come out, I likely won't ever buy another product from RTG again. I wouldn't mind another 10-20% AMD. Make it...

    Vega 56 BIOS Recovery After GPU-Z Gave Corrupted Backup - Solved

    Your device number will be 0 if its the only device connected by default. Integrated graphics might be a problem. If you want to flash just make sure you are only using the video card at the time.

    Vega 56 BIOS Recovery After GPU-Z Gave Corrupted Backup - Solved

    Should work fine. I have a PowerColor card so I flashed the 64 PowerColor one on and haven't had any issue other than just wattman being annoying. Is 900MHz your limit for HBM clock or can you go higher?

    Vega 56 BIOS Recovery After GPU-Z Gave Corrupted Backup - Solved

    I didn't even try to flash since I couldn't even get the bios to backup. When it froze, it would peg the CPU and I would have to hard shutdown the computer. After a few times, I gave up and tried the cmd method which worked without a problem. Open CMD as administrator and navigate to the root...

    Vega 56 BIOS Recovery After GPU-Z Gave Corrupted Backup - Solved

    It would flash the number one position. This is the proper way to recover a failed flash with a dual bios card and is exactly what I did. The card only uses the bios to post and some very specific programs access it after booting (For example, you wouldn't want to switch the bios switch on the...

    Vega 56 BIOS Recovery After GPU-Z Gave Corrupted Backup - Solved

    For some people it appears to work, for others not. If the program doesn't freeze while trying to load to export the bios, then it will work. I was having the freezing issue so opened ATIflash in cmd.

    Vega 56 BIOS Recovery After GPU-Z Gave Corrupted Backup - Solved

    Yeah, it's not compatible with the Vega cards. The WinFlash actually freezes my computer while trying to export the bios on the card so it actually doesn't work. I just open a command prompt and run atiflash through that and have had 0 issues.

    Vega 56 BIOS Recovery After GPU-Z Gave Corrupted Backup - Solved

    Yeah, I tried again, flashing wasn't the issue, was the older GPU-Z version not exporting the full bios as a backup. Using the same settings except changing the memory frequency in my undervolt testing nets about 4% extra performance by using the 64 bios. HBM is very temperature sensitive...

    Vega 56 BIOS Recovery After GPU-Z Gave Corrupted Backup - Solved

    After reading the articles about flashing Vega 56 into 64, I decided I wanted to try it. There wasn't a risk since card has dual bios and the 64 bios flashed onto my 56 just fine. My problem though comes from this. I followed the ATIFlash guide and used GPU-Z to export the old bios. The old...
