For the record:

This stuff *can't* be read from the VBIOS and has to be found by trial and
error.
You also don't have to google the steps, they are described in comment #48.

But otherwise you are right, It will limit your card and replacing it with
another one seems like the only option you have right now. At least that's what
I did too, because I don't see this bug fixed in the near future.
