Pretty important, because the primary Device ID for Example 1002 **** vs 10DE **** (AMD vs Nvidia) is what chip maker its from, then 67DF is like a full powered Polaris 20/30 Chip and 6FDF is like the 580 2048 SP. Now in subsystem ID 1002 is AMD the card maker, or 1DA2 is by Sapphire, then E366 is the particular pcb itself, 0B31 being a particular PCB.
That is actually super helpful, thanks good sir.

Aggreed, tbh I wouldn't normally go with no name brands when dealing with any type of electronics, it was a pretty good deal and wouldn't broken the bank. The crap is people straight up lie about these. Was a pretty good learning experience though, would never mess around with this type of thing if I didn't have to.
there should be a PSA on all forums not to buy shady chinese GPUs SMH

Can you try the following bioses on GPU1?
Tried these, but nope (luckily not getting any more errors while programming) still giving the same issues. It Displays... any type of load on GPU kills the machine, can't boot with HDMI and DP plugged in. I have tried quite a few bios's now since I kinda know what to look for, no luck. Is it possible that the HDMI port is faulty? It never boots up with HDMI plugged in... when I bootup in dual integrated (HDMI) and GPU (DP) it dies when I swap HDMI to GPU I have tried so many bios's that one should have work by now surely.

Someone has the same PCB and this bios worked for him
The typical 0b31 bios
The two of you are absolute godsends! It seems to be working. Boots up fine, both monitors. Will stress test this one, but looking good! By fat the most useful, dedicated forum I have ever posted on! I can't thank you guys enough!

The working BIOS for the two GPU's:

GPU1

GPU2

Just saw the BIOS for GPU2 that works is using Hynix H5GC8H24MJR memory but pretty sure the card has Samsung K4G80325FC memory modules... should this work, is that a problem?

Thanks again guys!

Well with these cards you have to verify the ram chips physically due to miners borking them

That is not correct. It might the timings are very lose it still can work.
The first 2 bioses for the second GPU didn't work?

Can you try this bios:

Yeap, got subsystemId mismatch on those first 2. Tries your last recommended bios, getting PIN mismatch on that one. I know you can force these, but if this bios works I am going to stick with it. Unless this will cause issues along the road?

RX570 is sligthly lower clocked. Besides that there are no differences since both Polaris chips have 2048SP enabled.
Personally I would flash a bios with correct memory support.

It is bothering me to be honest. Might look around a bit more now that I have working BIOS for each.
