Then you should definitely get the gigabyte. Even if there's a hashrate difference of 4-5 mhs, 100$ is alot for 4mhs, anyway.

For the gigabyte you can get a modified bios from this website https://anorak.tech/t/anoraks-vbios-collection-optimized-settings-for-performance-power-saving/13/3

All you have to do is download the right ROM for your card (Choose the right type and the right memory type, check memory type with GPU-Z before doing anything)

And flash it. Here's a guide on flashing: https://forum.ethereum.org/discussion/11266/quick-guide-to-flash-your-rx470-rx480-cards

Please note: I advise you to stay away from flashing for a while, get your rig and get it setup, let it mine for a few days while you read on flashing and make sure you understand it a 100% before trying it, flash one card and see how it's doing on the rom for a few hours and only flash the others if the results are pleasing.

The hashrates of both cards should be similar to a great extent, it depends mostly on wether there is a great modified bios available for the card, and also depends greatly on your ram type, which you cannot find out before you open your card and test it sadly, I would get the sapphire if they're the same price if I were you, if it's more expensive then get the gigabyte.

in my country it almost 100$ difference

I dont understand so much at the modification of the cards, is there any tutorial or something how to modify the cards?

From what I looked there almost no one uses this cards and I cant get information on this card.

and how I can know if I can modify the bios?

Thanks for the help!
