I have a MSI GAMING X RX470 4gb but the bios in it seems to be very rare or experimental. It is reported as a TV341MH252. I searched it and the only other occurrence was a reddit post from someone who ordered a RX480 8GB and it identified itself as a rx470 4GB with this BIOS. I did an upload to the database and it was a unique bios https://www.techpowerup.com/vgabios/214583/214583 .I opened it up with polaris bios editor and all I could find was that it had a greater thermal limit then a regular RX470. I don't really mind but i worry if its not causing some instability, especially since some MSI utility caused crashes in the past.I attached roms (just rename them).The 216 is what i think it should have from the factory.I hope somebody with more knowledge can take a look at them.

Heres your card specs, the bios is too slow on what you have.

Screenshot_2019-12-12-21-01-09.png


Your bios isn't really that unique other than F5 being in the coding, tdp of this one below is exactly the same. Tbf you can compare them side by side and see any differences.

If you decide to flash you must have a spare card or a integrated graphics adapter on the cpu die to do recovery.

All files below are 85W TDP and 125A TDC

These below are build dated 2016 08 18








These are build date 2016 07 18






These are 85W TDP, 107A TDC

(You may try one of these as a safety for current/amperage-Less heat, plus newer than your current bios)

Build date 2016 12 20




Build date 2016 11 21


Same date as above but with 1218 Core Speed (like your current bios but different tdc)

sorry i meant the one with 113-MSITV341MH.214 like this one https://www.techpowerup.com/vgabios/197900/197900 from the list "Build date 2016 12 20 "
these caused a loss of signal. GPUZ coudn't display frequencies for core and mem.ATI Flash identified it as polaris 10.

Ok try the next one under same date, sometimes others with same build date work too. You could try the 8 18 ones too

But msi cards tend to be more picky than his or sapphire.

What did You mean by that? Is it just the frequencies ? or something else?

Frequency. If you go to that msi page for some reason yours is downclocked.

I would ask msi why.

I can have your BIOS modified or you can do it yourself either way as long as you feel comfortable doing it
