Hello.
If you received error 43 from thin air, that means you should start looking 1st at the operating system 1st.
Maybe a video driver update that went wrong.
Flashing a video card's BIOS is the last resort.
Give us more details regarding the conditions that lead to that nasty error 43.

Put the gpu in another system.

There is absolutely no reason to flash a Navi 2 card

I have put it in another system.
I have updated the video drivers.

It just came up one day and does not go on it's own.

I did finally got it force flashed yesterday through cmd and it stil says error 43 so i'm afraid it just bricked itself somehow.

If you had a problem with it another system before the flash that tells me the card has a hardware fault. Being Gigabyte they have poor QA, I would have RMA'd it or returned it to store and went with an ASRock, XFX, Sapphire as an example

If its still under warranty RMA it for Error 43

Get a gpu-z screenshot, then of the memory screen on the advanced tab please

We need to know if it's Samsung or Micron based.
