Get a screen shot of both switch positions in GPU-Z, that means restarting your system when you switch from 1 or the other. And a pic of the white pn/model number sticker please. While youre at it go into the advanced tab of gpu-z and post screenshots of each item in the context menu with the V by it.
Also please click on the black arrow next to the uefi checkbox and attempt to upload the bios for 1 position then the other position to the vga bios collection, you might get a prompt about the files being in the collection already with a link, copy and paste those links here.
If you dont get that prompt, be detailed about what specific model number your card is and what bios switch position the file came from, then post those links here.
Hello all! I'm new here so please go easy on me! I recently got the XFX Merc310 7900XTX for Black Friday sales, upgrading from a 3060ti founders so quite the upgrade! I've taken notice of this supposed 550W bios going around, talked about on here and on reddit. I'm quite interested to do this to my card, but I cannot get a clear answer on what I need to do to achieve this. I've read you need to solder, then I've read you can just use a clamp and clamp it to the bios chip, and then I've also read you can just use the amdvbflash tool. Can someone give me a clear answer on what I need to do for my specific card? It is a dual bios gpu (switch towards the io is the less power one and towards the rear is
the higher power limit one from what I know.) I will include a screenshot of GPU-Z if that helps. Any help is greatly appreciated!!

Can you provide a link from tpu about this pegasus unicorn bios?
Plus reddit?
From what I can see is max power level for performance is 339W PPT and minimum is 327W PPT.
Be advised that if you go and do a 550W bios you will need a cooling solution that can handle that kind of power draw due to the chip getting excessively hot.
If it were me I'd leave the expensive new toy card alone and enjoy it instead of breaking it with a bad bios flash.
Before you mod it let the warranty run out on it next year or 2 so that way if it fails before then you can rma it without paying for the rma itself
