Hallo,
I tryed both nur not working.
GPU Speed is correct when i start the program Memory clock is @7000 MHz
Wenn i try to change the Settings, After apply the Settings going back to default.
Any idea where is my mistak?
One more Question, if i am searching for compatible BIOS i will find some BIOS Versions of the 2 GB and the 8 GB Card. Is it possible to use them?

i would first look if the card has a reference design PCB or other from powercolor-oc-gpu´s before trying to flash a bios.
i think you want to try and unlock 4gb to 8gb?

Hi
how to see if the card has a reference design PCB? PCB = ?
Note: as *afterburner dose not recognised the vga card! [*very odd] has voltage been tampered with voltage changed
What dose GPU-Z say?
NB: when I checked PolarisBiosEditor was able to access all variants of the RX 480 vga bios images. (non of these came up greyed out) only warning of 256kb over 512kb size
Question: have made two backup's of original Vbios ? edit a copy original! keep a copy in a safe place not on primary drive

No [that will brick the vga card]

Read my signature. Don't screw up your new toy, if you do you won't get support from the manufacturer.
Just oc the card using AB.
