One of the two reference RX 480 cards here went under the soldering iron to have one of its chips replaced. Which one is it?

Spoiler

It is card 0 with the W25Q80 Flash chip. Both of my cards are reference cards, which come with a 512kB Flash chip for VBIOS. I tried to force flash a RX 580 VBIOS in one of them and ended up bricking it, to the point of needing external programmer to help. I don't have any stock on 512kB QSPI Flash chips at all back then (even now I don't have much either) so I grabbed a 1MB W25Q80 QSPI chip instead, hoping that stepping the capacity up wouldn't hurt, and the GPU would pick it up.
