Oh yeah, 1+8 method right.

But may OP card still under warranty, better didn't do physical tweak.
This method used jumper method, connecting a foot IC chip number one and eight. Number one is the one under a small hole in the IC. And number eight is at the opposite end of the number one when we draw a slash of the number one.
one question, Is the jumper should be connected when powering up GPU? I have one dead RX480 reference card and will probably try this out
