Hello everyone! I've bought recently this GPU and since I got it, it had issues, because it wouldn't show the GPU clocks on GPU-Z and the clocks where stranded at 1000mhz clock and 2300mhz memory, I also tried installing the drivers via device manager and AMD Adrenalin (all giving errors). After that I changed the switch from boost mode to silent and became normal, I switched back to boosted mode and nothing happened, it kept on silent mode, but by this time all was working. And of course after extensive search I saw the amdvflash thing, tried it, seems to work but overheats alot, I hopefully think it needs an repaste there... I don't know what if I did something wrong here...

Ok pull the card from the case, get a picture of the partnumber and SKU Sticker located on the side of the card heatsink near the pcie blade. Then a gpu-z screenshot of the card in silent mode with a picture of the advanced tab showing what memory is on it. Post all pics here please

You may want to consider cleaning the heatsink and fan and do a repaste of the gpu die and maybe thermalpad replace. 1000 and 2300 tells me a mining bios is on the card.
