So copy the 1500 strap into all the higher straps




0:1625 7770000.....
0:1750 7770000......
0:1875 9990000......
0:2000 9990000......


If I copy these timings correctly  am I unlikely to cause a bricking if I have chosen the wrong combination ? If a combination works but it isn't the fastest its simply a matter of testing it and then reflashing the BIOS? eg copying from 1500 up or 1625 up is no more likely to cause a bricking? Or is 1500 up considered more aggressive than 1750 up?

Probably someone could help here - how do I mod the memory straps of Micron - cards(RX4**). The famous polaris bios editor tool does not recognize the memory timings...
do you have the latest one version 1.4.1 it does actually detect dual memory cards.

MT51J256M32HF , Micron Technology.
So my question is is it safe to use polaris bios editor and change memory straps ?

Sorry for that memory vendor you got - terrible luck. I personally would seriously consider taking it back if I got one with Micron, but it's rare they go THAT cheap.

Oh no, luckilly i did not buy this card, a friend of mine got it for a good  price, so i was just considering buying a few pieces, but i suppose its better if i stick to sapphire.

Every card has its own bios. So no. You need to be specific with modding bioses. Each has its own bios. So for your msi you need to mod the same card bios.
Use atiflash or gpuz to save bios. And polaris bios editor to change bios. then atiflash to flash the bios.
Or just go to like ether forums and search/ask around for your bios.

Has anybody tried to mod the BIOS of the card MSI RX 470 8G? Can it be done using the .rom for 4G Saphire Nitro?
Thanks in advance
