Radeon 200 series (not 200x) UEFI support?

[PhilipPIno]

Hello,

I buy a new Radeon R9 280.
The graphics chip from AMD came out in March 2014.

I live in the year 2014. Where you live ASUS? In 2004?
Every ****ing system is today operated with UEFI and asus brings a brand new Video Card without UEFI support. incomprehensible...

Bring to all the Radeons 200 (not 200x) series a clean UEFI firmware!
UEFI is not just a optional feature, no UEFI support is like buying a card without BIOS.


Sorry for my bad english.
I'm from Germany, the quality-country which would not even take this **** on the market.

Hi PhilipPIno and Welcome to ROG

Have you tried ATIWinFlash, others I believe are using it to flash their cards. Here is a tutorial should you wish to go there.

Here is a link to the VGA BIOS collection: http://www.techpowerup.com/vgabios/, Maybe yours is listed.

Hope this helps.

Hello

Nice first post. I was told late last year all ASUS NV 700 and AMD 2xx series card have GOP support out of the box.

In the list there is no firmware for r9 280 (NOT 280"X")
the chip is still too new (at asus apparently not :'D)

It is also not the best away to solve this.
(no genuine and my warranty dies)


What about asus? Is already an update in planning?
(I'm also still waiting the answer of technical support (e-mail))
