Yes, I do remember reading about this before. Nice to see it confirmed in black and white though, thanks for sharing that.
Just seen what you mean on the dates for your wait! Can you remember all the BS I had with my Alphacool VII block? When the RGB screw was crushing cards! I'm not a fan of the new Alphacool blocks due to the amount of rubber seals they use. Too many points of failure for my liking. I've had a Bykski block in the cupboard since January! I bought that around Black Friday and it got held up for over 2 weeks with the lorry chaos around Xmas in the neverlands. Then taking a closer look this morning noticed it needs 9 sprung screws and only 5 in the bag! (What's another week when I've been waiting 6 months lol)
You should get a nice tweak using LTMatt's guild for air. My card with tweak slightly different on water due to the reduced temps. Per 10C reduction, should net a 4% power reduction.
Very well done! That gets you to #47 in the world for a 5800x/6900xt config on the 3DMark tables.Had a go at the standard Firestrike benchmark tonight and was delighted to see I was rocking a GPU score of 63420
Sweet!
I was just looking at the OCUK benchmark thread where it seems to have comfortably beaten all others there, however I'll take my place in the world rankings gladly too!

It's a good score mate, well done.I was just looking at the OCUK benchmark thread where it seems to have comfortably beaten all others there, however I'll take my place in the world rankings gladly too!
Cheers for the tip LtMatt. The numbers are going up! Score to follow........It's a good score mate, well done.
Small tip for anyone using a 5900X or a 5950X, you'll probably need to disable half the cores to get a similar graphics score in Firestrike Standard. Otherwise your GPU Utilisation will not hit 99%.
I've never seen one in the UK.(other than launch day) Hence why I ordered an MBA card from ocuk.
Very nice! I also thought the same as Seanoog below, I've ran into stability issues below 1080 Mv too, is this a typo!?
My understanding is that 2112 Mhz for the RAM is optimum for gaming (tips hat to @LtMatt) but that some benchmarks can benefit from it being set a bit higher than that. In my own experience, I have achieved my best scores with the RAM set somewhere in between 2112 and 2150; I have a "bench" profile saved just now with the RAM set at 2137 Mhz which has proven to be quite effective for me.Ohh that's some nice numbers, bravo to the owner.
I am almost green with envy, almost.
2150MHz on the RAM, does that not affect benchmark and game performance?
And 1000Mv, I can't get mine below 1080Mv, without crashing? Is that a heat problem? Or bad luck, with the silicon lottery?
Firestrike is a light test at the side of Port Royal. That needs more voltage and runs at a lower clock during too. What is your default max clock in the driver?Ohh that's some nice numbers, bravo to the owner.

Try pulling your minimum clock up, ideally so it's 100mhz from the max. That's the closest the min max can be. 2500/2600 or 2550/2650 might be worth a try. Going to high requires the higher voltages are little to no gains. You could give a 2250/2350 a try and see how far down the voltage will go. Should get 1000-1020mv stable.My present settings for gaming:
GPU Min 500MHz, Max 2600MHz, 1080mV, and +15% Power (320Watts.)
RAM 2100MHz, Fast Timing.
TEMP/FAN 30c = 20%, 50c = 30%, 65c = 40%, 80c = 55%, 100c = 100% (Exponential Curve, meaning, hotter the system, the fans work exponentially harder.)
Typically I play at 4K HDR @ 120Hz in FreeSync, with settings been High/Ultra, to achieve 80 - 120 FPS range.
In some games I am CPU limited, and in others GPU limited... Typically I see 65C (80C Junction Tempatures) under the most demanding scenes, with the core maintaining 2550MHz, with 50MHz deviation.
Only complaint is about 50db in noise, at that speed and temperatures.
What temperature does the fan profile follow, for determining fan speed? Junction or Current temperature?
