Was this your card from the start, or bought second hand? If second hand, it could have a custom mining bios that is preventing regular driver use.

i bought second hand. But after change the dual bios to boost and install driver 17.7.2 whql it work, and going update to 19.1.1 its work to. Is'it the problem because of the bios?

Could you please take a screenshot of the HWInfo summary page? This way I can look for the original BIOS (if you want). If you flash this, your card should function normal again and driver updates shouldn't be a problem either.

I´ve found the bios for your card. This bios is for the NON-OC version.

VGA Bios Collection: Sapphire RX 480 8 GB | TechPowerUp 

This is for the OC version (mostly the same, but a bit more clock).

Use this tool to flash the bios to your card (you have to switch to the modded bios)

Disclaimer:

I'm not responsible for any damage to your card if a flash is not successful and corrupts the bios of your card (you have another one). Please be aware that any kind of flashing things like bios / firmware onto a device inherits a small risk of a failure and thus resulting in a corruption of the bios / firmware. Under normal circumstances and with a stable system, the chance of this happening is really small and shouln't be an issue.

That should be the problem, your card might have been flashed with a modified bios on the 1st (non-boost) switch position. This is usually done for mining cards. Using the original boost bios on the 2nd switch postition or overwriting the offending bios with a default bios on 1st position should solve your issue. If you contact Sapphire with the serial of your card they should also be able to help you. For now, look at detrophy's advice.
