I was thinking of doing this myself but then sense got the better of me. My scores are not going to improve that much.... Will wait for my CPU to be 40-50% of the next latest and greatest

What you have and what are you thinking of upgrading to ?

EDIT:
For me the single core difference doesn't warrant an upgrade imho

I'm still on a 8700k, I've just enabled a 4.8ghz OC again so I've gone from 18k to 20k in time spy. I'm ok with that, I'll see how games perform over the next few days. If I'm not happy I think a cheap upgrade like a 7600x would do.

I gave in and bought a 9070 XT Pulse for £629 despite knowing that my son's 7900 XT was serving his needs perfectly well. I just wanted an excuse to tinker with a new toy.

Some comparison results from a 7900 XT Pulse to a 9070 XT Pulse. Please note these are at a specific area and purely to indicate difference on my rig. 7800 X3D, DDR 5 6000, Windows 11.

One thing that surprised me is how efficient you can get this thing to run. I set an undervolt of -.80mV, VRAM at 2750, Power Limit to -30%

212w for a loss of ~4% performance from stock. Without the undervolt it drops about 8%from stock performance.

Max OC was -.100mV, VRAM at 2750, Power limit 10%
This gave about 8% extra performance for 330w of power.

Ultimately I settled on -.75mV, -5% Power Limit, 2570 VRAM. This gives 5% over stock and 285w power used. This is essentially trading blows with my RTX 4080 in raster and not too far off in RT. I have to admit this is a great GPU even for 10% over MSRP, though "upgrading" from a 7900 XT is only worth it if you plan to play RT, or want that FSR4.

Right so my Gigabyte OC is meant to have a core clock of 3060, but according to 3DMark and Gigabytes own command center, it's not going higher than 2874 (the reference card speed). I can confirm it's on the performance BIOS setting.

Any ideas? Can anyone else with a Gigabyte check theirs?

Check that's not the average clock. 3D mark always reports lower clocks

Seems like it beats the 7900xt nicely and you get FSR4 into the bargain

If you are running a Freesync monitor and it keeps above the VRR floor, those kinds of differences are almost meaningless. RT does of course make a difference.
