Question I plan to upgrade my GPU, but I'm not sure my bios supports the upgrade

[Gion1]

I own a Foxconn 2ABF motherboard with legacy type bios. I want to upgrade from my current rx 550 to a rx 480, but I found a few people who had problems with legacy bios and this kind of GPU and from what I've read it's because it was made for UEFI type bios. Now since my motherboard seemingly doesn't support the graphics card I'm wondering on what I should do about it.

I don't really want to upgrade my motherboard or change the type of GPU I want to upgrade to.

Is there anything I can do besides changing my motherboard ?

Hello.
Both cards are too old.
The one you own right now has 2GB as i presume.
The question is : what producer, model and memory (4 or 8) you want to buy ?

If the RX 550 works, a 480 should work too!

What's the brand and model of your PSU?

The one I own right now has 4 GB of Vram, It's a "PowerColor AMD Radeon RX 550 Red Dragon 4GB
vram Gddr5" and the one I want to buy is a "Ref AMD Sapphire Radeon RX480 NITRO+ OC 8GB vram Gddr5"

My PCU is a Floston FL550-12, 550W

Yeah, that garbage tier 336w PSU should not be used. Even with the current setup it's a bad day waiting to happen.

To be fair. Your best upgrade will be going to an i7 CPU instead of upgrading your GPU. Your board is a bit dated for newer cards and you will not see much performance.

You can OC your current card though. But your hardware is nearing its limit.
