if you have same cards, take bios from there and flash it to bricked one,
if you dont have same card, find bios on the web and then flash it,
first card must be working, to start pc, then just flash to second one

3 Sapphire and one MSI, sapphire is cheap crap, should have buy asus cards

BIOS is good, these cards have dual bios so no problems there, but the cards went on fire, it is physically damaged maybe only electronic soldering can fix it
