Title: RX 460 Modding in Linux? Post by: Lindworm on August 12, 2017, 12:37:06 AM Hi,
does anybody know how to mod an rx460 under linux? I don't have windows running. Thank you upfront. Lindworm Title: Re: RX 460 Modding in Linux? Post by: pigfrown on August 13, 2017, 01:09:11 PM This is how I did it, although I still used windows for a small part (but mainly cos I'm paranoid).
First of all I'll just say that I found no way of finding out what type of VRAM you have in linux. Would love to know how to find out in linux, but I had to boot windows and run GPUZ to find out. I used the following tools to mod/flash my bios: atiflash - to save/load BIOSes.. apparently there is a linux version but I didn't really want to run an unknown binary on my linux box so I just used the windows version. hexeditor/polarisbioseditor - You can use either of these to mod your bioses. PBE is written in c# so I see no reason why you couldn't get it running in linux. I used a hex editor. Check sum fixer if you don't use PBT - I used the checksum fixer provided here https://github.com/OhGodACompany . There are also tools here to overclock your cards and decode RAM timings. I also found the strapmod.py tool handy (https://github.com/nerdralph/strapread/blob/master/strapmod.py) Good Luck! |
