I did this a few times with several cards (the asus cards are true crap by the way)
I remember that the sequence was a tad different and i soldered 2 wires on it so that i could redo it again (and i needed to) without shorting anything with a paperclip.
Let me know if it doesnt work; i'll dig into it again how i did it exactly.
Good luck.

Soldering pins?? 
No, no, no
Try this:
- use DDU
-enable onboard video as default display output in your mobo bios
-connect only the bricked card to the x16 slot (main pci-e slot of your mobo)
-boot pc
- run cmd as administrator and navigate to your atiflash folder
- from there type
Recovered many cards this way.

The "-f" option forces flashing. This ignores the "cannot read ROM" error you are getting and performs flashing anyway.
It should work.

I was asking if i should solder the pins because from what i've read for a lot of peole system doesn't recognize GPU at all, but mine does, as i can show u here:

I'm a bit worried about this precedure tbh.

1) Solder wire between pin 1-8 on BIOS chip(suggest that you check your BIOS chip datasheet in case its a different chip, you need to turn CS high(to positive/VCC) in order to disable BIOS);
2) Turn windows on;
3) When windows finished booting, clip of the wire(now the BIOS will be enabled, but GPU will not read content from it)
3) Flash the original bios;
4) Turn off system.
5) unsold.
this kind of information while good to know, should never be handed to a noob in which you know not there skill level. all your doing is giving him/her the tools to screw his/her gpu up more than it already is, and not to mention your instructions are very vague that said, id bet he/she would screw it up trying this. your assuming he already knows certain things which by the sounds of it he/she does NOT, he/she isn't going to know what pins 1 or 8 are on the bios chip, then theres the soldering part which being that its a small chip its easy to accidently bridge two pins together being a noob. theres lots of needed information that you DIDNT include, like how to determine which pins are 1 and 8. what an ass move to give someone poorly done instructions that will do nothing more but increase there chance of messing up the gpu more
I'd obviously read more about this procedure, i wouldn't trust only on this few posts. I know how to recognize pins, by getting the documentation of chip and then understand which side it's the head and which is the tail (little circle on chip). And i wouldn't for sure risk to solder myself since i don't have experience at all.

So you say:
1) Sold pin on BIOS chip;
2) Turn windows on (i've read Dos is better, should i use it?);
3) Flash the original bios;
4) Turn off system.
5) unsold.
Am i right?

I don't have the 2 bios switch, Pulse edition only have 1.
Ouw sorry, I don't have a pulse series. I thought that same as other RX.
You have to disable GPU`s BIOS by soldering a wire between two pins on BIOS chip on card before starting machine, and when booted to Windows you have to enable it again, then you can flash orginal BIOS back again and turn off computer and remove soldered wire. Then start it again and it should be normal.

1) Sold pin on BIOS chip;
2) Turn windows on (i've read Dos is better, should i use it?);

If your card still on warranty, RMA would be better, if not you can be tried that method. Someone has tried on this thread.
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.31852392
he cant RMA you dumbass, any gpu with a modified bios gets claims denied automatically and then you are SHIT out of luck. tired of people handing out super crap information without knowing shit. anyone with half a brain and has RMA'ed a gpu before knows that you CANT rma a gpu with a modified bios as they check it and will deny your claim, its in there fine print and its also stated before you submit the RMA form. its all there in black and white

Have you tried it? Is it worked? Someone in another forum has tried it and worked properly, and another one makes that troubled card smoky.
Maybe the smoky one doing something wrong on those step, bad soldering or whatever.

check for more if it doesnt work, but this looks like it may help you.
Step one; get an original copy of your BIOS (you backed it up before flashing riiiiight?
??)

I've read that post and the others linked inside. I think i have to try to boot with DOS and then try to flash bios.
I've read this one too: http://www.overclock.net/forum/74-graphics-cards-general/593427-how-unbrick-your-bricked-graphics-card-fix-failed-bios-flash.html
Here it doesn't sold the 1 + 8 pins, what do you suggest?
Here it says to sold (or use paperclip) pin 1 + 8 and remove it after the system restarts, so do the flash without the bridge. My system already recognize the GPU, both through windows devices window and "atiflash -i". Should i skip the phase of connecting pin? http://www.overclock.net/forum/74-graphics-cards-general/593427-how-unbrick-your-bricked-graphics-card-fix-failed-bios-flash-24.html#post25463481

Try to switch your bios to the stock mode using bios switching panel (located in upside near display port). Then try to boot your system, if your card appears on device manager, then update the driver.
I don't have the 2 bios switch, Pulse edition only have 1.
If you can see your GPU on device manager you always have a chance to recover your GPU.
I hope you have the orginal BIOS. I always backup orginal bios before modding any GPU.
Try to restore your orginal bios

As long as your card appears in the device manager even as Microsoft Basic Display Adapter, don't worry, your card still fine.
How you mod your card bios?
I suspecting you are using downloaded bios mod. Try to switch your bios to the stock mode using bios switching panel (located in upside near display port). Then try to boot your system, if your card appears on device manager, then update the driver.
Next, you can re-flashing you bios card through AtiFlash, but make sure using own bios mod.

Guys i need help.
I have a Rx 580 pulse 8gb with hynix memory. I flashed a bios through ATIFlash and something went wrong. When i rebooted windows i could not open ATIFlash anymore because it says it cannot read ROM. Going on Devices section this is what i see (image taken from internet so it is in english):
https://i.imgur.com/WIdzX1s.png
The gpu turns on as pc does but fan never stop spinning.
I tryed to use ATI Pixel Clock Patcher but didn?t work. The i tryed to use DDU on safe mode and i unistalled AMD Drivers (i think). So after rebooting in normal mode i downloaded last amd driver from adm website and tryed to install them. At the end of installation process a window show saying that the system could not recognize the hardware (error 182). The gpu didn?t change and it?s still not recognized.
Did i bricked it? Is there a way to solve this problem?
Thank you
Doria
