Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.
R7 360 - not detected

When you say that you tried flashing the BIOS once already, does that mean that the card is detected as a device that ATIFlash can flash when you use another graphics card to drive the monitor?
If so, I suspect your problem is the memory, rather than the core, but I don't think you'd be able to conclusively diagnose which one it is without help from AMD. You said in your other thread that you have access to a factory that manufactures electronics, so if you have access to a BGA rework machine, you might try replacing the memory chips with new ones. If that fails, maybe then try swapping the GPU out with a known good one, if you can.

I would bake the card first. I've resurrected several video cards using the baking method. Worth a try.
No need. He just said he has the ability to reball a GPU, which is the technique that baking a graphics card attempts to mimic.
You should make sure that any other regulators on the board are working first (look for SOP-8 packages), but that seems like your best shot to me, if all the regulators are working.
Its not really worth the hassle for a 360, but on a more expensive card, i would replace the RAM ICs with new ones and reball the GPU. If you have a way of testing the RAM ICs individually, you could maybe save the cost of new RAM chips by removing, testing and reinstalling the good ones, but as a mere mortal, I don't.
