Hi, Guys! I've just bought an used Rx460 4GB but it acts very strange! the BIOS became choppy as if it's running @ <20 fps! Also windows sometimes takes ages to load and sometimes it won't boot at all (flashing black screen or stuck at windows logo) but when I managed to boot I didn't face any problems, I even have run heaven benchmark for an hour with no problems.
I've noticed that Rx series only supports uefi and I have ASUS P5Q-E which uses legacy BIOS. Is that the problem? Or I've got a faulty Card?
It's also worth mentioning that my previous card was a faulty 7970 which I used to bake it at oven but the last time it gave me black screen, no post, no beep and numlock off! I had to fully reset the BIOS (removed the battery and set the jumper to clrcmos) and the pc didn't post until I removed 24-pins cable and cpu power cable for a couple of minutes then put them back.
So do you think it's uefi-legacy bios problem or did my 7970 short the mobo and cause damage to the pci-e?
