To get on the Roll of Honour all you have to do is post a pic with your user name on it of your Radeon RX 6900 XT.
 
It seems to be within 100mhz of mine before I got the waterblock on.
Mine was held back by the junction temps slowly decreasing clock speed.
On complete stock with 255w and nothing altered clock speeds started around 2440 and dropped as the tjunction hit around 72c to 2300ish.
I have noticed that some games push the gpu a lot more than others.
Cold war for example only runs at 2320-2550 but this is pushing 220fps.
Shadow of the tomb raider usually boost at a consistent 2549.
All stock with mpt tdp 300w.
Going to get some runs with all stock 255w hope this helps :)

I never even thought to check junction temperatures, that's interesting to consider. I don't even know what junction temperature is, haha. Definitely sounds like you got a good card though. If you're watercooling it and raising the power limit (and overclocking and undervolting), what sort of clock speed/performance improvement are you seeing? Also, aren't you worried about your warranty with regards to dismantling your card to install the waterblock?

On an unrelated note, I find it truly bizarre that AMD decided the stock power limit would be 255. I feel like the card reaches a power/performance sweet spot at around the 300W mark.
 
I managed 2750mhz on air with 1110mv undervolt, memory and power limit full.
I used mpt to reach 350w max with the slider, I could hold 2700-2750 though without overheating (full fan speed for benchmarks only)

I ordered a water block which should arrive at the end of the month, will then see if there's anymore left in it.
Would like to see an increased power bios for the 3 pin cards though, otherwise its literally a useless cable

Which 6900XT do you have man, MBA? I went a little nuts earlier and ordered the Asus 6900XT Strix OC LC version. Expensive but :cool: AF!!

Hey
Yeah I meant the hot-spot temperature.
Had the card all the way upto 450w in mpt.
Most titles held back by my 8700k (cold War 80% ult 300fps)
The best clock improvements for me are around 300w.
Had about 4 hours on tomb raider stable with 2780mhz set. 2740mhz in game with slight fluctuations. Temps never go above 54core 72hotspot. Voltage untouched.

For me my card hates running timespy as gpu clocks down 100+mhz or so.

Not really fussed if it dies or breaks have pushed every GPU I have had to the absolute max and never had any issues touch wood lol.

Real world gaming after bios tweak and oc I would have to run some tests.
I have far cry 5, shadow of the tomb raider and borderlands 3 if you want me to post some scores.
Would estimate anything from 4-10% gains.
Waterblock and raising power limit not touching anything else usually gives 20.3k in timespy.
 
Got a 6900 XT Merc on the way. Not sure if I am going to keep it, but an opportunity presented itself and i took it. Arrives today at some point. :)
 
No way. :eek:

Did a Kraken G10 mod to a GPU a few years back.
Think it was a 7970 GHz.

My heart would be in my mouth doing something like this considering the price of these GPU’s.

Don't blame ya. I added an Arctic Accelero AIO to my golden 7970 back in the day. Remember the glue they used for the heatsinks on the memory chips wouldn't come off Lol.
Good thing your 6800 XT is worth a small fortune!! :D

Yes long gone are the days of using a 2b pencil to link resistors on a graphics card for that little power mod!
