So far AIB ones are making <2700Mhz>

HUB has a Sapphire one that's 2660Mhz.
Der8re get his Powercolour Red Devil to just over 2700Mhz.
JayZ2cents has a XFX one that also ran at just over 2700Mhz.

These are consistent and stable.

The problem getting past that is twofold, 2800Mhz limit and the +15% power limit, if the 3090XT gets a higher power limit and 3Ghz i think they would get 2800Mhz+, some might make it to 2900Mhz, the 3900XT's are also going to be the best binned chips. Like the Zen 2 3950X was and Zen 3 5950X is.

I want one !!!!

And the temps on Red Devil are under 70C @2.7Ghz. It may look ugly but the quality of the card is first class.

Cause the power draw on those cards are low - 70c isn't actually that impressive, it's towards the better end of the cards but you'll see the asus strix will be another 5-7c cooler than that.

Unless ASUS decided to screw over AMD again, by reusing the exact same RTX3090 cooler without modifying it for the 6800 and having part of the GPU/Memory not making contact with the cooler

Low power consumption responsible for low temps, i'll take that over the cooler being responsible for it. :)

Well RD was ~60C on der8auer video ( 55C after liquid metal ) but he kept it outside of a case, like Jayz did with the Merc. Inside it will get a little warmer.

Sure, OC 55c/70c with 900 RPM fans outside the case or not i'll still take it. :)
 
Tried some DX9 games (well, Mass Effect 1 & 3 really) and can confirm issues at first glance. The problem is due to clock fluctuations - once I set min frequency to 1800 mhz it went away and remained very stable. Strangely the issue was more apparent at 5K than 4K, for whatever reason.

Not new behaviour, Vega had similar issues in some games but didn't expect it to still exist with RDNA 2. Ah well, no biggie because the fix is simple.
 
Now here is a big opportunity for AMD.

Nvidia is releasing it's mobile RTX3000 cards soon as they've had to cut down the chip's significantly to get them into a laptop's power limit envelope.

As such, the fastest laptop RTX3000 gpu will only match the desktop RTX2080 https://www.techpowerup.com/275358/...-part-comparable-to-desktop-rtx-2080s#g275358

I reckon AMD can come up with something that's faster than that, uses less power and is cheaper to make - big opportunity to beat Nvidia in the mobile market

How is that comparison Ampere mobile to Turing desktop? The slides show where the new Ampere mobile gen is priced/positioned relative to the old mobile Turing mobile gen. It says nothing about desktop and that wouldn't even make contextual sense in a MOBILE roadmap.

Em what is this.....I think no such card exists ;)

Adoption is sadly the issue. God knows how much ££ Intel and NVIDIA are giving to laptop manufacturers to keep them using those parts.

6700xt is potentially faster than 6800/6800xt because it can overclock significantly higher

The 6700xt is most likely the same gpu that's inside the Xbox series x (52cu) but this desktop version looks like it can hit 3ghz

and so many here the forum experts said these amd cards wont and cant even do 2.5ghz......
AMD designed these with speed in mind.
Now you can enjoy some really nice mhz cards
Once the market stabilize, atm its horrible as everyone buys amd hardware.
Demand is trough the roof.
3ghz 6700xt, sounds great to me
 
Thats generally the case isn't it? :) Water cooling (generally) can provide a more consistent approach to temperature management, so the core would be more stable.
