I updated the video card BIOS and now it does not provide video

[RzR32]

I recently purchased an XFX RX 570 from Aliexpress. Everything had worked correctly, without defects. I had some problems with drivers, when starting some games it just closed and gave an error in Radeon Software, which said that the AMD driver stopped working. I started to check the temperatures and memory usage of the card but nothing was wrong, everything was normal. As I already knew about the fame of the video cards of the RX line that suffered with drivers I was not even surprised. I uninstalled drivers and reinstalled, it didn't work. So I decided to reinstall the BIOS. I went to TechPowerUp and did everything as the booklet says. Everything went well with the installation, but when I restarted the computer, there was no more video. And my processor doesn't have onboard video. I changed the BIOS switch (the card is dual BIOS) and tried again thinking that I installed the wrong BIOS. But not. There is only one BIOS version of the XFX RX 570 (4GB) on the official website. So I tried again. And again it went wrong. My 2 BIOS of the video card did not provide video. The BIOS of the official website does not work on my video card. What is the correct BIOS?

Well, you'll have to blind flash or put it in a machine that has integrated video.

Those memory ICs... look..........browned...........wow. So you bought a card, it didn't work and instead of returning it you bios flashed it???!?!?!?!!!! Yikes.


Can you show a picture of the GPU die itself.... wondering if you got scammed.

Yeah, I've done the procedure, but I still can't use the drivers correctly. Everywhere I saw and forums I visited, they asked me to reinstall the BIOS but none of the BIOS on the official website they serve me.

The images are from the opening moment, when she arrived at my house. It is really well spent but I expected worse. I've done cleaning. I changed the thermalpads, thermal paste, cleaned the fans (in fact, I replaced it with new ones), I did the maintenance of everything. It's like new (except for CIs of course, ). The card works normally, I even played some games. Crossfire and CS: GO. However after a while and an update the drivers stopped working.

Okay, just a moment

Clarify, please.

It worked, then you installed new drivers and you started having trouble?

Yes, it worked. I updated the drivers and it worked, however an update appeared in Radeon Software. I updated and it stopped working. I went back to the drivers before the update and the one that used to work, also stopped working.

What, exactly, did you update from Radeon Software? These vague explanations aren't terribly helpful.
