If it was already on your card when you got it new, I would not worry about it so long as the card is working as intended

That BIOS is for "Gaming", without "X"


I marked as verified and updated the GPU DB link

Ok thank you but it is an gaming x but the boost clock in this bios is wrong it should be 1695mhz not 1650mhz so should i update the bios to the other one with the higher boost clock ?

That BIOS is not for Gaming X. Gaming X is subsystem ID C752, Gaming is C753

@eidairaman1 i have bought a gpu from a year and its non used......... idk why msi attach an unverified bios with wrong clocks
Firstly all new GPUs have unverified Vbios, until they are submitted here and verified.
That is not done at the factory.
Secondly we will need a screenshot of GPU-z to check which card you actually have to find the correct Bios if it is wrong.

I just got Gigabyte RX2060 from work colleague. I ran it through GPU-Z and it lists BIOS as 90.04.63.80.0C, which is an unverified one. Should I be concerned? How can I find out if the card was used for mining?

Yes, I am aware of that. But the card is "new", unpacked and all. I am aware that the whole packaging can be fraud, I am just curious if there's a way to be certain? (I haven't paid him yet for the card). The temperature rises ingame worries me...
