card is not working on the board from the date i purchased ,
i updated the vbios of the card as the previous bios doesn't support UEFI.
board is upto date with latest bios
i am using only one card from Sapphire Vendor, but the support he given is awesome.
i am using many products from ASUS but the support is worst and afraid of purchasing latest cards like RX480 for the board, even the official ASUS support is not confident of RX480working on M5A97LE R2.0

SERIOUSLY!?. Why would you update the vbios on the card?
Also what is the problem???
Update your motherboard bios from Asus using the old card first then use the 240. Contact the manufacturer of the 240 card and get the correct bios to flash on the card.

^Words of wisdom there OP, you should listen to this man. What you did was a dangerous experiment, and just flashing the MB BIOS as recommended may have fixed it. I recall Nvidia's 900 series GPUs were often not working on older model MBs. A MB BIOS flash usually fixed it.
The main things you see updates for on MB BIOS are compatibility revisions for newer model CPUs, and GPUs.
The main reason people try to flash their GPU BIOS is usually to try and get it to perform at the level of a higher model, but it's always a risk of bricking your card. It's rarely if ever about compatibility issues.
A rule of thumb with putting newer GPUs on older MBs, is if a MB BIOS flash won't fix the problem, you replace your ancient MB. And yes, that often means a newer CPU and RAM too, but hey, that's upgrading 101.

changing board is not a solution i think, as
i updated the Vbios of Card as first It doesn't have the UEFI Support (i tried in by changing to LEGACY mode too in MB BIOS but no use )
now card supports UEFI and able work in other ASUS UEFI boards
if ASUS releases the BIOS update for this problem will resolve (Sapphire given me the VBIOS file for UEFI Support of GFX Card )

Card works on other ASUS board means the other working boards are non UEFI boards.
Sapphire given an vbios update to support UEFI, but ASUS failed in giving update.
By the way I have an ASUS sabertooth 990FX / GEN 3 R 2.0 board too with firepro w7100 GFX
What I understood is card not working on UEFI boards, ASUS Should release an update for this
