Hi,

i recently installed a Sapphire RX 470 Nitro + and everything is working fine other than the BIOS being completely unusable due to the resolution.

I've tried messing around with the resolution of my screen but to no avail.

I upgraded from a GTX 750 Ti and had no issues with the BIOS whatsoever. All of my drivers are updated to their latest versions as well.

Any advice at all would be greatly appreciated.

As panathas said, are you using the same input on your monitor as before? I have the same card in one of my builds, like panathas said, I have no issue's with it hooked into the monitor with an hdmi cable so try one just for experiment sake. I haven't tried using a dvi or dp cable, but I'd wager it would be a similar outcome. Also, try looking in your bios for an output resolution setting, some high end motherboards have a setting to change resolutions from the usual 480p to 1080p or such and such.
Try using a different cable or display output from your GPU to the monitor, if your monitor has other inputs than the one you are currently using. Also post the rest of your system specs and especially the monitor and its resolution. As a side note the drivers have nothing to do with the BIOS.
