Hi friends
I recently bought new gpu and now I realized that my gpu's core frequency is not rising from300mhz and base clock is 1300mhz but vram clock rises normaly to 2000mhz(under100% utlization) and when I tried increasing clock speed manualy from driver it crashes
----------------------------
PC info:
PSU: msi 550w (less than 1 year usage)
Motherboard: asus h81m-c (bios:3602 last version I guess)
CPU: intel i5 4570
RAM: 6gb ddr3 1333mhz
Storage: ssd samsung 870evo (sata)
GPU: rx580 8gb
-----------------------------------
Numbers written on pcb board of gpu(I opened heatsink for visual signs of fried component but nothing apparently):
PCB number: 109-C94037-00-02
Vrams: samsung K4G80325FC
GPU core: 215-0910018
Device ID: 100267DF-10020B31
----------------------------
things that I've tried:
- Changing multiple vbioses (original one doesnt work witout patcher and same issue)
Current bios: https://www.techpowerup.com/vgabios/233384/233384
- DDU and reinstalling driver
- deleting msi afterburner
- checking gpu hardware connections pci-e / 6pin
- trying with different monitor without dvi/vga converter
- checking if gpu has thermal throtteling ( it doesnt)

A used GPU, right? I think it quite unlikely to find any new RX 580s, since they've been out of production for a long time. In any case, I'd expect this to be an RX 580 that has had a hard life, like a lot of AMD GPUs of this era that were out in the wild during the two big GPU crypto booms. You've done the practical things already; you're far more likely to end up bricking or killing the GPU at this point than getting.

If I recall correctly on the stock GPU -- I may not, I'm on my phone -- the RX 580 had a boost clock about 100 MHz over the base clock. On such an old GPU that, again, may have had a hard life, I think chasing 100 MHz is definitely not worth the risk.

thanks you are compeletly right about its hard life but im losing 1000 mhz acording to this cards capabilities(without oc) maybe i just let it work as it is then
Edit: pardon me I meant its stock at lowest clock wich is 300 it should normaly reach to 1300 at base clock and boost to 1340
