I bought this card thinking it wasn't used for mining but unfortunately it was probably used for mining since the right switch bios shows board-id as "BITYBY-RU" and after a quick google search I found out that it was a paid modded bios for basically mining... I don't wanna give the card back to seller since I need the card but I want to use it as oem as possible. Fortunately left bios was untouched so when I checked the board-id it said "113-4E4262U-O4I". I was able to find the original bios for the left bios switch but I couldn't find anything for the right switch. Can I just use the Micron chip BIOSes on my card with no issue or do I need a specific BIOS for my card?

Try this Bios.
With you on a Dual bios card you must flip the switch to the mining bios to flash it.
And please read this very first post in this guide, the amdvbflash 3.31 driver must be installed for it to work. You may even consider rebooting the system after that driver is installed.

Windows kept giving me SSID mismatch error and while I was trying to bypass that error I found out that there's a linux version and since I dailydrive linux I decided to try the linux version. I think I made some progress but I still can't flash the BIOS due to "BIOS authentication signature mismatched" error.Try this Bios.

UPDATE:
After searching more on the internet about my left bios switchs board-id I was able to find the original right bios and after flashing it on Linux it worked! I couldn't figure out how to flash it on windows since I was getting the same error as the old bios but the original BIOS flashed without any problem on Linux.
I will attach the original bios files for both switches in case people need them in the future.
