So I just ordered a new Rx480 Sapphire Nitro+ OC 8Gb DDR5.

It worked absolutely fine on 23.8 Mh/s Claymore windows for few Hours.

Then I flashed Custom Vbios by Heliox and it gave me rate of 28.8 Mh/s on ethos.

It ran for around 7-8 hours perfectly it crashed  and then crashed thrice in span of thirty minutes.

Then the card gave error to even boot the OS. I have tried. ethos, windows 7, windows 10, Ubuntu 16.04.02 .

This has happened to some of my cards before too. I don't understand why?

Here's the error Ubuntu and ethos gives -

And Windows 7 gives - Blue screen of Death


Any kind of Suggestions. Inputs are appreciated.
