I now have an R9 Fury Tri-X in my build. The bad thing is that, assuming that due to it's age, the card did not originally have UEFI GOP. The problem is that there still is no official download from Sapphire for a UEFI GOP vBios. I tried flashing an R9 Nano bios from here https://community.amd.com/community/gaming/blog/2016/04/05/radeon-r9-fury-nano-uefi-firmware. The problem is that this has drastically slowed my GPU (GPU: AMD R9 Fury-X - 50.4%), rendering this option useless.
Is there any way I could get a signed UEFI GOP bios made for the R9 Fury (not Nano or X)?

Thanks bunches for your answers

By doing this, I will be able to use Ultra Fast Boot.


I am sorry to contradict, but you are really wrong if you think that R9 Fury is obsolete. With this thing I still can play 2018 AAAs in Ultra Wide Full HD, with high-ultra settings without having the slightest problem. Far Cry 5 45FPS all settings maxed out (including Anti Aliasing) AC Origins Maxed out gives a steady 30-40 FPS. By lowering some settings like shadows and character detail, I get 60FPS.


The Fury X file is only for 4096 Stream Processors Cards. I have a hardware locked R9 fury. By flashing that I will "brick" the card.

Obsolete as in no longer manufactured. Certainly not meant as a pejorative statement. I used to have a Fury X in my main gaming rig. My nephew now has it and loves its performance.

Understood on the file you previously used. I mistakenly read your original post incorrectly.

What is your boot time now?

My boot time is about 20 seconds, of a SSD. It is not the boot time, what's annoying me, but the fact that I can't use my hardware to it's limit. I always liked to squeeze every bit of performance out of everything. Being unable to do this just annoys me, without any good reason.

Anyways, I have encountered this thread https://forums.guru3d.com/threads/uefi-gop-bios-for-fury.403667/

Sapphire might still have a BIOS built with GOP in mind, I don't know why they don't share the damn thing lol. Also, the link is dead, that's why I still am here.

Thanks for your help. Also, tell your nephew he's a really lucky guy to have such hardware :).
