I have a new ASUS Dual RX6600 and used MorePowerTool initially to set the power limit. In the end I just uc/uv in Adrenalin as was looking for lowest power consumption whilst getting the fps I wanted.

However, how safe (as in security) is MorePowerTool? As I understand it is suppose to change just SPPT and not the BIOS on the card?

I used GPUZ to save the BIOS from the card and checked the SHA1 hash (which was BB44FC279A15655E715580EB18981FD60FB16E28) to compare against the Techpowerup database, however, those BIOS had a different hash, but were from over a year a go, so it could be different now.

Probably being paranoid but could anyone with a newish Asus Dual RX6600 check their bios and see if it matches mine above?
 
More power tool does not change the firmware on the card as a simple reinstall of the drivers removes any settings you have changed.
