Hi everyone, hope you're doing well.
I got my hands on 3 RX 570s 4GB with weird BIOSes on them. They all still output display but their performance are severely limited (in Unigine Heaven they achieve 30fps tops while other 570s can easily reach 60fps). One of them also have 580 2048sp BIOS on it. These cards made me scratch my head since they only have two output (1x HDMI and 1xDP), and also only takes 1x6 Power similar to Sapphire's ITX cards and the AMD Reference design ones iirc. I've tried flashing AMD's reference bios on one but it doesn't change anything (if anything it disabled the HDMI so I had to connect through DP). I've attached pictures of the GPU die markings and Memory markings (all three have the exact same configuration) and also the PCB marking, so I hope I can find the proper BIOS for these cards. Thanks in advance!

Please provide a clear picture of the WHOLE PCB since we can't determine due the lack of information.

Coming right up. I saw people usually ask for the marking on the gpu and memory so I thought those will suffice

Apologies if it's too dark, there's currently a power outage ongoing

Damn it actually have a (somewhat) proper brand name. Here we are flooded with non-descript refurbished card with names like Tarasq, RX7, etc which to my knowledge doesn't exist outside this country (Indonesia)

Quick update,
I followed the Polaris bios flashing method in the forum (the ver 2.93 one)

First card (the one with 580 2048sp bios) crashes the system when I tried to flash the new bios. It's not detected after reboot

Second card (had seemingly similar BIOS to the one provided above, already made a backup) fail to verify the programming, crashes the system, and now windows won't boot with it installed. Booting the system through the igp results in a Clock_Watchdog_Timeout BSOD within a minute

Third card throws error 0fl01 no matter what command i use (-i, -p)

Guess I'll go visit a friend of mine who has a SPI Programmer to see if these cards are still any good

Could it possibly the BIOS chip themselves are failing?

Will give an update on the result

Did you make a backup of the mining bioses before flashing the other bios?

I did, specifically from the 2nd card which is similar at a glance to the one you provided (clock speed and memory clock is the same iirc)

Will surely try, but I have to bring the cards over to a friend so he can lift the BIOS chip and use a SPI Programmer since they're no longer detected / crash the system before I can flash them
