So the 6750 XT Red Devil is a bit of a beast for overclocking. I have been able to max out every slider easily. YMMV.

stock clock was 2666Mhz for core and 2258Mhz for memory. I'm able to push that up to 2950Mhz for the core and 2312Mhz for the memory.

22-25c delta between edge and hotspot at full load of 250W with everything clocked to the gills. Stock voltage 1.2v.

Days Gone, 1080P maximum settings. 156 FPS. 3090 FE gets 220FPS in the same spot. Not yet tested my 6900 XTXH in this spot.

Recently I've actually been undervolting and running the 6900 XT at 2300Mhz/2400Mhz and drawing 175-225W under load. :)

Do you reduce your power limits to draw such a low wattage or does the card just only pull what it needs based on the clock speeds? With the weather warming up I'm thinking of going down this road to try and reduce the temperature in my office!

I do it via undervolting but reducing the power limit is always another way to do it.

My Sapphire Nitro SE doesn’t seem to play nicely with undervolting. Best I can do is 1150mv at 2400mhz with -5% on the power limit slider. I’m still pulling 260W under load.

Ok after been without a GPU for almost 6 months my RMA has finally been sorted and my replacement 6900XT arrived today. It all works as it should, so far anyway!!

I had to return to Sapphire directly and they took a long, long time to get a replacement for me.

First thing I did :)

6 months, blimey!
Yeah **** that ****

Yeah, it was a long time. One hand I am angry with Sapphire about the length of time it took, on the other hand I am just happy that they replaced the card. You see the place the card was bought closed down and Sapphire don't deal with returns, you have to go back to the place you purchased the card. Which I couldn't do. But, Sapphire stepped up and let me do the RMA through them.

So great service and crap service :p

Since that place is no longer active, can you share the name of it? Just curious.
