Hello guys,
i just got an used Sapphire RX 580 Nitro + 8GB with dual Bios. I got the card with the Bios-Switch in position 2 (silent; towards ports).
Everything worked fine, but GPU-Z is showing different GPU / Mem Clock (1120MHz / 1925MHz) then i was expecting (1340Mhz/2000MHz) for the silent mode. I also noticed that the Bios has no UEFI Support.
So i turned the PC off, flipped the switch to pos 1 (gaming; default; towards power connector) and got a black screen, also no bios and Post messages.
I started searching around and found out that maybe the Bios were flashed before. So i flashed the this bios as following: Booted to Windows with the bios switch in pos 2 -> flipped the switch to position 1 -> flashed the bios with the amdvbflash provided by Techpowerup -> finished successful -> restart the PC
But i still got no image with the switch in pos 1.
Next try was to set the switch back to pos 2 and boot into the UEFI. There i switched the PCI ROM priority to legacy instead of EFI compatible.
Then flipped the switch back to pos 1 and restarted. Post messages came up and Windows started. I opened GPU-Z to see what clocks are shown.
GPU-Z shows the right default GPU/ MEM clock (1411MHz / 2000MHz) but the actual clocks stayed at 0.
I tried reinstalling the Driver, using DDU and boot again in EFI compatible mode. Still no output.
I also tried flashing other bios versions provided here (only versions with autodetect mem) but nothing changed. I still couldn't start the PC with the switch in pos 1 and PCI ROM priority set to EFI compatible.
Maybe the Motherboard has problems with the Uefi bios of the graphics card?
While checking if the latest bios for the motherboard is the newest, i realized that there is a beta version (L2.31A) which says "Graphics supports UEFI GOP". Maybe i should try flashing this?
It would be great if someone has any idea or advise.
Thanks a lot!
