[potato580+]

hello guys am new abt gpu, all the times ive used igpu only so firstable im pretty poor, cant afford retail gpu, i looking for cheap secondhand gpu, got this rx580 sappire nitro+ oc 4gb but in bios mining condition, the seller said it can used for gaming too, no need for reflash, say 65c temp on fullgaming, can it be true? it is normal? question is can i switch it back to original bios for better performance? i dont plan for any mining scam, just need natural gpu how it suposed tobe
sincere thx & excusee my broken english not my native language

hello guys i finnaly got my shiping yesterday sadly the product seems like a garbage, so i decide to returning it, the gpuz result didnt match from sappire website, many specs alr been adjusted random number bus/clock/volt, i guess its true modifier bios, anyway i plan to get new one from other seller, bit afraid i might get scam again so i decide to switch other brand aswell, currently aim for gtx 1660, since it was a new gpu product ive no fear buy secondhand one, my question is do gsync can be run or usefull on freesync monitor? ive watch several youtube review abt, and its very much ambiguous, some say it work just fine while the other say it was bullsht to do so, pls lemme know if you guys have experience into it, i wont pay for new monitor, my budget alr tick as chopstick thx adv
i can get rx580 $90
and willing to pay gtx 1660 for $150(2nd hand)-$230(brandbew retailcard)
also i actually consider buying rx590 at the same price as 1660, but i think performance bettween 580&590 is the same, only get sightly perfom on 590 1-5fps depending which game, i read performance benchmark site, so 580 for $90 is worth than new 590 card
i prefer pay for cheapest price so then i can safe cash for next upgrade

yes great news, https://www.rtings.com/monitor/tests/motion/g-sync-compatible

nvidia is working well with freesync monitors, newest drivers are even better then the ones they tested with also. no idea about what you have listed tho " acer vgo 2k " thats your display?
i prefer nvidia personally since the 270x but it seems like most folks are amd obbssesssssed around here.

i do a quick read, it seems my monitor doesnt listed on compatiple test
Update 04/24/2019: NVIDIA has added 6 new G-SYNC compatible monitors in their latest driver update, version 430.39. The six new monitors are:

Acer KG271 Bbmiipx
Acer XF240H Bmjdpr
Acer XF270H Bpmiiprx
AOpen 27HC1R Pbidpx
Gigabyte Aorus AD27QD
LG 27GK750F
the closer one is kg271, i belive mine is slighty expensive, it is acer vgo nitro 27, i hope it also compatible, i will try to searching more information, thx for the reference, thats lighten some hope for switching nvidia brand

Yes, is true, depending on how much you know about bios modding, you can make it with lot more performance than official bios and use a lot less power, although for a game perspective you can find the original bios on techpower bios website, download gpu-z and check what is your real bios name and model and then search it on techpower bios website.

I forgot to tell, if you want to restore back to original bios then download https://www.techpowerup.com/download/ati-atiflash/ and open command prompt as admin and amdvbflash -p 0 biosname.rom, hope it helps.

i dont need a mod, just a stable bios like it should be, and yes i need original bios, so i can gaming on same performance as factory setup , which is better anyway red dragon or sappire nitro, i can get another sappire for extra $20, altho powercolor seems pretty much worth a price

i got screenshot from seller just now

i make a quick decide, becouse the warranty expired on 24hours, just too scare abt getting scam , anyway i tested on 13minute or so, it seem theres no error this time yay

the only annoyed me is the fans too noisy, ut run at 90% speed somehow

i hope it was normal, will testing again ingame this evening

Stop running Furmark, instead play or benchmark some games. Furmark is a unrealistic load the GPU wouldn't normally encounter.

no pink problen anymore thx, btw i got strange result on unigine bencmark

i suspected this gpu has been bios mod maybe, it just strange, on gpuz it detected as rx580, also i think i cant stand with the fans noise, its too loud, got 90% speed ingaming all the times, i guess i need to flash original bios, somehting just not right, this card looks like having strange sypmtoms, maybe someone can tell why it run strangely?

edited umm nevermind i think it becouse superpositiin benchmark doesnt recall rx580, they just put rx470/480 instead, i got correct result on heaven benchmark

all problem left is fan and temperature sightly hot than normal, it is 90% fan speed, and 79c temp while playing videgame

anyway i did be glad this card are not so bad, i even can play favoritr game in 50-75fps cap, in ultra setup 4k, thats just amazing for less than $90 gpu, i will test it on on highend game like re 2 or hitman 2 soon

excuse the blurry screenshot, iwas becouse i used some cheap random phone, believe me this gpu have no sign of blurry trouble

cant upload actual snapshot from window, the file is too larger for a single picture, around 18mb, its limited to upload here

 

[eidairaman1]

This is your specific card, it is supposed to have a max clock of 1350

https://www.powercolor.com/product?id=1496737702#spe

If You decide to flash please please back up your current bios files in each cards switch position by using gpu-z. Also if the card has a dual bios switch-please only flash 1 side, leave the other alone
I will provide several files that will work for this card,

I just happened to find a verified bios here that matches the clock speed of 1350/1750, your device and sub system id, and hynix ram

https://www.techpowerup.com/vgabios/193218/powercolor-rx580-4096-170417

These others are unverified, may work.

This is the 2nd one that would work 1350/1750
https://www.techpowerup.com/vgabios/197855/197855

This one has a memory clock boost to 2025

https://www.techpowerup.com/vgabios/210875/210875

This one is labled mining edition, I would compare the ram timings between this bios and others
