Title: What to do with bricked rx 470 bios with single bios?
Post by: pornluver on May 06, 2017, 07:56:09 PM
With rx 480 dual bios the solution is easy. Switch back to ori, switch back to silent, flash something working.

What about single bios rx 470?

Also for rx 470 and samsung memory, should we use 1750 straps?

Have you tried using the igpu or another gpu for monitor the reflash with your original (or a working rom) with atiflash from the command prompt?

I haven't had this problem. But I plan to do this on a rig with 6 GPU. So yes it's easy to just change a normal GPU as "main" GPU. The problem is that one badly flash rom GPU may cause all system to fail

you can flash the rx470 while you are using the onboard

do what the guys said, if you don't have onboard gpu, plug in another card in pcie 16, boot in windows and flash bad card.

If the system fails you can try this: https://forum.ethereum.org/discussion/9443/bricked-your-rx-480-due-to-bad-flash

I flashed a 480 rom on a 470 and after bridging those pins during boot I was able to get it working again. Good luck!
