rx 6000 high OC but low gains?

[MustangSVT]

I am super interested on very high OC the rx6000 series are showing, but in the games its not showing much gains at all , can anyone have a theory on this?

Can this be improved once the drivers are updated?

I think the new drivers improve gaming performance

It does still make a difference. 6800 XT undervolted 255W power limit: ~2400MHz sustained clocks


6800 XT undervolted 310W+ power limit: ~2650MHz sustained clocks


I think I have more thermal headroom, but I seem to be limited to 2800MHz core and ~310W power limit by the vBIOS.

I think the big secret right now is to use MorePowerTool to override the registry entries for power limits, provided you can cool the card sufficiently. You can also reduce VSOC voltage max to around 1 volt to save power budget for the GPU core to clock higher. That value requires some testing, some cards will do lower like 0.900 or 0.950v if they are good samples.

On my 6900XT reference (EK block) bone stock



2100 mem, 2600 max clock, 115% power.



Same as above OC, but with power limits raised beyond practical limits by MorePowerTool.
