Hello so today i finnaly fixed my gpu as it was dead for 2 days.
After installing my gpu drivers rebooting to silent mode i got hit by a big fuck you screen as black screen.
So i am asking as i dont wanna do some fuck up.
Should i reflash my gpu with same bios or should i do the same thing i did (igpu,windows,flash with rom disabled)?

sorry for spelling mistakes its 11pm on iphone.
took entire day of troubleshooting

Black screen is likely GPU core clock too high or wrong GPU Vcore set.

On RX 5600 XT, you'll be lucky to get 2.05 GHz. I suggest to try 1130-1137 mV to start.

Also, you want DDU and then set DDU to block Windows Update from installing drivers.

For the silent VBIOS, flash back the original.

So is the bios you are showing what is working? Also sapphire tends to put a sticker on tge side of the heatsink near the pcie blade

Can you make a clear picture of the PCB. I having some doubts about the brand since the chokes doesn't look from a Sapphire card.

It seems to be a Sapphire board but with minor changes to it. Green is the same. Red contains a deviation
Please provide us the part number listed in the blue square nearby the DP port?

Per the bios from my understanding the file with the lower tdp is the "silent bios" there is a trade off as the ram speed is at 1500 vs 1750.

Anyways odd ball bios with a tdp of 150w and high fan speed:


Silent:



Performance:
