RX 470 4GB error 3.

[KindaWindy]

Hello guys, recently i bought a second hand rx 570 4gb, which was used for mining, i had a IT tech friend and he put my gpu on my motherboard, it worked fine at the start, then after i had to restart my pc, i started getting this error, i've tried uninstalling my drivers with DDU, then installing them again, didnt work, also atikmdag-patcher didnt work either
I've scrolled through this website and came to a conclusion that i need to flash my gpu, can anyone talk me through it, i've had no experience regarding gpu's and pc's at all, so im kinda scared to try it i might end up doing something stupid.

You don't need to flash anything just yet.

Download GPU-Z and post a screenshot.

Run the task manager, and take a screenshot of the performance tab.

Return the card to the seller for being defective.

i guess i will, but could it possibly work by flashing it?

Cards with wrong BIOS usually do not POST (work) at all.

Thank you! You are a lifesaver! I tried everything on the internet but nothing worked for me until now.
Yesterday while mining my electricity suddenly stopped and the other day both of my GPUs were found as ATi cards with error 43 in device manager, IDK how this happened but it's fact.

Thank you again!

Just to make you aware, the last time I checked AMD clean-up utility can also be found in any Adrenalin Software Folder. I don't think it makes any difference as I expect both should be up-to-date.
