You can turn an Asus Prime Radeon RX 9070 OC into the XT version just by changing its BIOS. This simple flash boosts the card's speed and lets it use more power, matching what the XT does normally. But here's the catch—you won't unlock any extra hardware parts. Those eight disabled compute units and 512 missing streaming processors stay turned off no matter what. Still, many tech fans love this trick because they can push their cards harder without buying the more expensive model.

A computer expert named Gurdi tried this on his card. He flashed his regular RX 9070 with the BIOS from the better XT version. This made his card run much faster—jumping from 2.6 GHz to 3.1 GHz! It also increased the power limit from 220 watts to 317 watts. The disabled parts stayed off, but the card performed way better anyway. For people who want more speed without spending extra cash, this looks like a great option.

The BIOS flash works perfectly fine, but remember, you can't bring back those disabled computer parts - they're locked at the hardware level. Even with that limitation, Gurdi's tests show amazing results. His modified card actually runs faster than some factory-made XT cards, especially after some extra tweaking. He plans to run more tests, but early results look very promising. This hack helps budget-minded gamers squeeze every bit of speed from their graphics cards without paying full price for the premium model.
