Hello everyone, i have a powercolor dataland rx 480 .The previous owner flashed it to to an rx 580 but the stock clock is 1100 for some reason and there are a few bugs as well like flickering monitor if i do a cold boot etc.
On techpowerup site i pressed find compatible bios button and it tells me that according to device id my card should be compatible with a Sapphire NITRO+ RX 580 BIOS which has much higher clocks and power limits. Mine of course has a single pci e 6 pin connector but i have read this is no problem if you have a good psu that can push 200+ watts over the 6pin connector.
I also plan to get an arctic accelero iv so cooling shouldnt be a problem.I dont care much about stability i just want to experiment for the moment but im afraid the techpowerup compatibility tool may not be trustworthy and i may end up with a bricked card. tldr: can i flash sapphire 580 vbios into powercolor 580 ? Thanks in advance for anyone who takes the time to answer to this noob question.
