Man your lucky to find one.

I've been looking for another 480 to match the one I already have.but no such luck
Nice card BTW

You could always find a RX580 and bios mod it to RX480 I know it sounds silly but they are only better binned 480's anyways

ok I'll bite, gimme a working bios for the MSI RX 480 8GB gaming X and I'll give it a shot. My ASIC is quite good at 82.1%

I have the 480 bios lol... I need a working 580 bios for the same card. This card doesn't have a dual bios switch so I won't flash unless it's an 100% working 580 bios

Well i ran into a bit of snag with Nier Automata or even a scare with my RX580..For some reason it was running 300mhz and today Nier was running very appalling. I've also noticed with 17.7.2 drivers GPUz and even GPU-tweak2 and MSI afterburner wasn't applying any tweaks at all(assuming because its driver and they don't support it yet). The 300mhz i figured out why from research as it was just running low powered.
Other things i've noticed with Crimson 17.7.2 is at start up it stutters slightly.
Nier problem well..first of all i had FAR mod installed,past few days game ran fine(so i thought). Soon as i started new game for the GF to try game out and got to prologue it just ran like rubbish to point PC actually crashed. I thought it was my "overclock" via MSI afterburner but it didn't actually work the OC. So i reset it back to default still ran like crap,uninstalled FAR mod same result.

Uninstalled Crimson 17.7.2 drivers and installed 17.1.1 and game ran a lot better without FAR mod..but i now run into the common problem a lot of people experiencing with Nier is white screen crashes or sword animation causing game crash.

Anyone with the sapphire RX480 nitro play world of warcraft by any chance?

Not sure what they do in this game when it comes to rendering the lava by my garrison, but god damn my fans go mental on the GPU like im running Furmark on ultra settings or something lol.

Anyone else noticed this on the game?

stock sapphire 480 and i havent noticed that, but it may be a Nitro issue.

It's just funny how it only happens by the lava, must be something with how its rendered or due to all the particles and smoke.

Did a quick monitoring test and temps also shoot up by about 7 or 8c aswell hence the fans getting faster, defo funny as lava = heat and my gpu acts like its near real fire lol

 

[Athlonite]

due to all the particles and smoke

That'll be the reason

Finally getting around to updating Sapphire RX-480 Nitro+ 8GB. Never could overclock it until I started reducing power. So far -12 power in Afterburner yields plus 70 on the GPU clock.

I bet that undervoltaging it will get you better results in both FPS and power consumption. Try 1,05V at first (with Sapphire Trixx preferably as it is a great application for modern AMD GPUs imho), should be enough for every loading application. A friend of mine has the OC edition of your GPU and he is more than happy with it playing everything maxed out on a 2560X1080 res on a 29" LG freesync monitor.

That card is begging for a BIOS mod. Just saying.

I had some peculiarities happen after doing that ie: the Memory Controller Load always showing 100% in GPUz (which now seems to be fixed in V2.50) and the same with GPU load which was always at 16% even when being used hard out but also now seems to be sorted in GPUz v2.50

I'd also agree with using Trixx I always had trouble with fan ramping profile not working properly in AB not so with Trixx though I also own the Sapphire RX480 Nitro+ OC version now the RX580 Nitro+ OC thanks to a BIOS flash

How strange I have done quite a few bios mods with those and not seen that.

I think it may have just been being misread by reporting programs as the likes of Windows 10's new task manager and GPUz now show proper readings it ofcourse didn't stop it from running perfectly fine so I just chose to ignore it
