Well, I didn't use Sapphire TriXX for seeing it but monitoring with msi afterburner I can say only reaches 1411 mhz sometimes and the frec can be under 1300 sometimes.
Sapphire TriXX for any reason?

I dont recommend flashing this bios. The bios belongs to a higher binned chip (XTR) instead of the usual XTX chip which are used for the RX 580.
Hello
Those XTR chips are used for RX 590 video cards.
I suggest you 1st to try to edit your original BIOS and make your card work faster.
What i suggest is to do that in small steps.
Save each of that BIOS files in a separate file so you will have all the steps saved.
Once you reach the desired speed but if it is stable of course you can stop there and test it thoroughly.
Cheers

No reason to flash anything, you can control the card with sw just fine (AMD wattman). overclock GPU and VRAM separetly. For the GPU, best you can do is undervolt it (polaris has a big uv headroom, like -0.1 or even -0.15V can work) so it wont run out of TDP, and stay on 1411MHz most of the time (or just increase the power limit in wattman, but UV is def the better solution).

After you reached a stable undervolt on your GPU, increase the VRAM clock by little steps, run a superposition bench or sg with HWInfo in the background and look for "GPU memory errors". If it stays 0 after a run, increase with another 25MHz and run again, till you see more than 0 errors -if that happens, decrease to the latest stable clocks and test with other programs...
