Same will get some comparisons tomorrow.T-30min.. I'm running final benchmarks on the 6900xt before doing the uninstall.. leaving it wide open to slot it in once it arrives.

thanks, but I already sent the card back.@koeiwong Regarding that issue with settings not sticking on the Merc, try flicking the BIOs switch.
That might be related to the idle power-usage issue? If you play media etc might still be high.So far the Aorus is doing fine apart from the idle temp which I am not sure if it is normal. When idle the fan stop, then the temp slowly rise to around 50c. I did turn up the case fans but only see 2c to 4c drop and hotspot temp remain 5c higher most of the time.
Those temps are very similar to what is seen on The Nitro tbh.thanks, but I already sent the card back.

Load temps look okay. Around 60s degree in games with the hotspot temp 20c to 25c higher. I can hear some coil whine but not loud.

Sounds like you rRGB bar is faulty to me, how unfortunate.Well i have double checked all my conenctions and tried using the LED cable and I still have no working light strip
@Gibbo Have you seen anything like this yet with this card ( I know is a small sample size)? Just the left hand side showing in a faint red (camera makes it look brighter then it is).

Certainly sounds like a faulty LED stripe. To be sure, did you download the latest version of TRIXX?Well i have double checked all my conenctions and tried using the LED cable and I still have no working light strip
Nope the light bar I believe illuminates the moment you switch the PC on, you can always try flicking BIOS switch but that looks like a faulty light bar.
I'd raise an RMA for the card, OcUK should arrange a DPD collection for next week and were expecting another batch of 100+ next week.
Enjoy the card over the new years break, play some games, run some benchmarks and enjoy it, then remove it on your day of collection.

Getting some impressive figures with the nitro+, just gotta try tweaking for stability. Max stable core clock seems to be around 3350Mhz
That's amazing.I've managed to surpass my stock 4090 graphics scores in Timespy with the Nitro. @Gibbo
I scored 32 410 in Time Spy

How you getting on dude?Same will get some comparisons tomorrow.
I've not underclocked, but I have reduced voltage. I need to do more extended testing, but so far I have been able to run 3200Mhz core and voltage at 1060mv. 1050mv crashes games after a while. Need more time to see if 1060 is truly long term stable.What stable underclocks are people getting? I seem to be getting driver crashes if I go below 1100mV
I can't get lower than 1100mV with my clocks on quiet bios, but it seems pretty solid on 1100mV so far. I've just been messing around trying to improve compared to stock settings on bios 2 on timespy by tinkering. This will hopefully be my daily driver setup for cool and quiet running without overdoing it on power consumptionWhat stable underclocks are people getting? I seem to be getting driver crashes if I go below 1100mV
