Hi guys!

I got gifted a Sapphire Pulse RX580 8GB, which is a badly needed upgrade to my system and for which I am very grateful. The only catch is, it is from an ex-mining rig and I know it has been flashed with a Bios for that intent.

Now I want to install the "original" or a not mining-specific bios on it but I know very little about these things. I know I dont want to brick it and I know Im supposted to use the ATI-Flash software but I havent figured out which Bios is the right one. It seems that I have this version installed on the card right now:

Which would be this version here on the site:

What I dont understand is: How is this different from the other versions that are available:

Are the other ones better? Should I flash it? Can I leave it?
Main usage will be gaming :)

Any Help would be much appreciated!
Thanks!
