Hi! So I got a Sapphire Nitro+ RX 580 8GB Dual one year ago and recently some strange issues have appeared. First, when I power on the PC, I get a message from the motherboard that this GPU does not support UEFI mode, only CSM. However, if I switch to the other bios (this GPU has dual bios) then this error no longer shows.
The second problem is that the PC crashes while gaming. Let's say I play Metro Exodus. The screen goes black after 10 minutes and the PC no longer responds. If I reset the PC, it shuts down completely and restarts by itself, showing the BIOS error again.
My PSU is a Thermaltake Litepower 650W.
I don't think this is an overheating problem, I replaced the thermal paste and thermal pads, it never exceeds 75C degrees. At the moment I've replaced the RX 580 with a GTX 1050 Ti and that works fine without any problems, but it also has a lower power consumption.
So what problem could this be? Is the GPU just dying? Perhaps the PSU could have something to do with it?
