Sorry for deleting the video just one hour after uploading. It just hit me that I didn't discuss that one issue in 3D Mark's Timespy. Real games were completely fine when benchmarked with zero issues (minus the Radeon software bleeding through the game when first starting? I don't think that's an issue with the clock though. Booting a game isn't exactly demanding lol), but I still wanted to discuss it. I just had to take it down, even though I know the video will likely get far less views now. It's just important for me to say everything. Even at the 2625MHz max clock, it's STILL over 600MHz higher than the stock gaming clock. What a monster!
Psst, I already watched and download that's to watch offline. 😁
Except it was never clickbait... of course, you don’t care since you post the same thing in all of my videos. Thanks for the views though.
It's amazing that you literally deleted the video for a short issue.
@@GamerMeld For the GPU OC did you manage to validate it and compare the scores? Others seem to have performance regression over 2.5ghz "depending on silicon quality"
In what universe is taking a video down so it can be corrected clickbait? He doesn't mention it in the title or in the video, the only reason I know this wasn't the original video is all the people calling it clickbait.
The only "Mega Hurts" I'm experiencing is due to not being able to get a card.
Mega Hurts.. LOL XD
Lol I waited from 11 to open and microcenter only had 2 cards... huge disappointment, getting nvidia for sure now
@@carterpederson5826 bullshit. You are joking right?
Ахахахаха))) Да да да) Мега боль)))
Waited 17 hours and got the Sapphire version. I'm confused aka lack of sleep I can overclock it right? Right?
I got zero clocks, the damn thing is out of stock everywhere
Welcome to 2020, all new tech released this year have been out of stock.
So zero stock ckocks?
3 GHz world record clock will be set with this gpu, potentially...
By kingpin.. probably
@@ThunderBlastvideo red gaming tech said there is a logic limit. When you get over a certain speed it automatically crashes. Not sure if it’s true or not.
@@ThunderBlastvideo by dark
At least the RX 6900X has a better chance
@@ThunderBlastvideo true but that’s if he is willing to use a AMD card considering he only uses Nvidia. He has his version of the kingpin 3090 coming out but even on liquid nitrogen it still doesn’t get these high clock speeds as this 6800xt and no I’m not a AMD fan boy 😂
Happy for you... That you got them. You're doin good, by the looks of it... Well done.

My Newegg experience this morning: Search: Radeon 6800 XT. "No results match your search. *Refresh*. SOLD OUT
Exactly the same here. Couldn’t get it on AMD’s site either, and it never showed up as released on Best Buy. Should never have believed them when they said their release would go better than nvidia’s
@@luciferscrotum LOL at least you guy's could get Newegg to load, their app wouldn't even load the page.
1 week til partner cards, 🤞🙏
@@rubberducki0406 Unless the partners do something about the bots its just gonna be that same thing all over again. I wanted a sapphire nitro + 6800xt but it requires a 850W PSU so screw that.
I just wish that they'd take a day of pre orders, sorry them in a lottery, then work through that list. The next days pre orders would get lottery sorted and tracked onto the end. Why is that so hard?
The reason why the clock speed was lower than the minimum clock speed was likely because it was hitting the Power Limit first.
From what I've seen with AMD's boost algorithm (I know a lot more about Ryzen mobile) but a lot of that minimum is because the core doesn't have anything to work on. It's kinda confusing but it could also be based on their boost algorithm.
Claim your "Why the reupload?" card here
🤣
"REFRESH PAGE CLICKING INTENSIFIES"
If you aren't seeing big OC gains did you try lowering the clock or adjusting voltage?
You need to validate your overclocks. You’ll find the sweet spot for gains will be somewhere under your maximum stable clock speed. Good luck
did you just ask me what clocks i got from a GPU on its release day which i couldnt possibly own yet?
Now we can expect some really good transition from RDNA 2 to 3, probably a nice IPC bump and some architecture and bandwidth changes to ensure full power of this new design, one that can really use the frequency bump accordingly.
1:12 lol at Liam spazzing out 😂
Marketing department finally realized that underscoring advertised clocks is a good thing lol. Sorry I should have said base/boost clocks.
You have a different opinion than me. Just as soon as we got 'Gameclock' with RDNA- the realistic average clock in games- it is now dumped, and specified clocks mean nothing again. They should have specified Gameclock at 2200+, not 2015MHz.
@@NeblogaiLT at least its better that my ryzen 3700x whit 4.4Ghz boost is nowhere to be seen.
@@Kazya1988 haha same I can get 4.3 on my 3600 at 1.38V only because I use liquid cool. Otherwise 4.0 at 1.27v
@@NoXQc well, he probably means single core boost, you mean allcore boost. 4.0 allcore boost is pretty normal for an ryzen 5 3600.
@@kaiser_nit0157 ohh gotchu so my 4.3 all core is even better. After 4-5h in warzone it never go higher than 53 degree
i think you should play with VRAM overcloack and later cache... if RDNA 2 is like Zen 2 that's how you will see overcloacking making a difference and Sense. GL, HF.. 😉😎
While I know we can't do it right now, but if someone does figure it out - I wonder if increasing freq on the cache memory would allow the OC to work better/scale as it would have more data to work with. It almost seems scale wise it was starving for work.
Waiting to see what AIB custom cards can acheive...
What type of clocks was I able to get? By the time I clocked out of work all cards were gone. Does that sound as off the charts?
I was able to get a very stable 2400MHz overclock on my RX6800 Fighter card. I got a very nice performance gain, bringing the RX6800 very close or matching RX6800XT performance. I used TimeSpy and Firestrike to stress test each run. Temperatures never get over 78C and fan speeds never exceed 75%. Very quite compared to my old RX580 card. I am very happy. Still have some fine tuning to get my scores a little higher but she is stable.
The 6800XT has a pretty big OC potential. Mine could beat a 3090. But I guess you meant that ur 6800 can match a stock 6800xt. Even tho I don't know why you would run a 6800xt stock
GAMERS NEXUS showed overclocking gave only a small performance boost. No go on the memory oc on their card.
yea and I seen Jayz2cent video too, core OC isn't the only factor for better performance
I was amazed about the 2.5GHz OC but I'm not entering the hype-train though
Yep, some frequencies even gave less fps. What's the point in huge OCs if the performance is no better.
Well Horizon zero dawn got a 12% increase. Depends on the game.
2 month ago my old card went to heaven. So i had to look for another. Well, there were no cards to get over here. Only the 6800 XT Red Devil for 1500 Euros. Wow...that hurts. So what can i do...i bought this card. And what can i say ??? Jesus, this card is so so awesome. Okay, the price is rediculous but i love this card.
Those scores suggest just like vega this card is very memory throughput restricted. Undervolting and pushing the VRAM clocks might prove to be much more effective for increasing actual performance.
My card is very stable at 2600mhz and I saw a small improvement in synthetics but it's only 10% or less. This may be due to a bandwidth limitation but the performance actually decreased when I tried to overclock the GDDR6.
Mpt or only +15%?
HI there seemingly friendly Gamermeld man, you did a good job on this video and it was fun to watch as usual
I ended up water cooling mine..... with a custom pump/360rad setup. I worked out it's best around 2.65Ghz, 1.35V by around 280W. Shame AMD encrypted and limited their bios because frankly I would have loved to have just set my speed/voltage targets and been done with it.
Look forward the strides amd has done as far with the 6800 series and what they are doing the coming months as I gear up with a 5600x and then a 6800 :)
Best performance seems to be around 2500MHz, after that there appear to be diminishing returns
Thank you for all the videos of the gpu I was able to buy one unlike the rtx series now I just gotta wait a week for it to ship and man this will be a long week
RX 6800, managed to push max 2575mhz and 2450 minimum stable, RX 6800 is fucking amazing. I love it way more than Nvidia this year. Screw the whole RTX BS. AMD will make up for that with their next RT technology.
I assume the OC didnt do enough to catch up to the 3080 at 4k or RT performance?
Ryzen 5000 cpu and 6000 XT gpu series are both readily available July 2021 for non scalper price...hopefully...
I undervolted and overclock my Power color red devil RX6800XT max boost clock set to 2514 left the minimum boost alone set the power limit to +15 and the voltage to 1020mv 2140 fast timing memory max fan speed 90% this gives a good performance boost with stable clocks, GPU hot spot under 80c. I bought this card used on eBay the guy used it in a GPU enclosure but someone actually cut the fan plug off the guy who sold it to me said he didn't know but said he barley used it so I took a gamble and asked for $150 off the auction price, after replacing the one fan $15 the final cost was just under $300 delivered
Probably mentioned down here somewhere but I want to reiterate... you can set the clocks that high but even with this better reference cooler the card is still quit limited with its thermal and power usage/target. This has been going on since Vega as far as I can remember. To my experience, the GPU's hotspot is actually what is limiting this gpu. The temperature that is shown by most statistics tooling (by default) is the overall temperature of the gpu die. I have a Vega 56, which used to have a reference cooler on it... I couldn't get past 1400 mhz, even though my thermals where toasty (80 degrees on full 100% eardrum blast mode) but it had still some room to tjmax (which was 105 i believe?) So using GPU-z I noticed that my GPU's hotspot actually really quickly reached 105 degrees, and it immediately started downclocking. No matter what I set in Wattman, and thank god... it would've burned a hole through my gpu.
In case of my odd temperature issues, I took it apart to put on a aftermarket cooler (morpheus II) and noticed a tiny hole in the vapor chamber above the die...
In that sense, if a great aftermarket company puts on a beefy cooler on this card, I think gains could be noted, maybe even significantly.
Story don't end there, regarding Stock...
This is just something I heard but makes sense in a way. Here in the Netherlands, the card never even went on sale by most third party retailers, except for a few preorders starting at 999 for the xt model (like... insanity..).
The most likely reason is that board partners got the choice to use the bought dies from amd on reference design OR their own design... obviously they went with the latter, but since those are still a few weeks out from being released, there is no stock at all of reference versions... none....
So I wish, but do not even try to hope, that stock will be better when AIB versions will be available, as most dies would most likely be used for those...
hoi, Ik heb een vraagje. mijn refrence 6800xt negeert alles wat ik als waarde zet in clock en gaat gewoon in stock bools clock werken. ik snap niet waarom, hoewel de overclock niet werkt gaat de junction tempratuur wel tot 110 graden oplopen. weet u een oplossing hiervoor?
@@aladdin7387 als de junction temperatuur zo hoog wordt kan het eenzelfde probleem zijn waar ik destijds tegen aan liep... A.k.a beschadigde cooler. Enige manier om dat te bevestigen is om de koeler uit elkaar te halen. Maar als je nog garantie hebt gewoon retourneren. Verder de reden dat hij dus niets doet met je settings in Wattman is dus omdat de gpu uit veiligheid niet hoger klokt vanwege die junction temperatuur, die is veel te hoog... Dat kun je en wil je niet kunnen uitschakelen.
@@aladdin7387 mocht de gpu gene garantie meer hebben zou ik er een aftermarket koeler op gooien. Ik zie als ik een beetje rondzoek dat een raijintek Morpheus II Core zou moeten passen. Heb je meteen ook betere thermals en hogere boost. Alleen rekening mee houden dat ie gigantisch is (minstens 4 pci slots ICM met 2x 120mm fans).
The 2080ti, has hit 3.1GHz on LN2. I'm sure Big Navi could do this too. Though, out of the box Big Navi won't oc 600MHz. Steve Over at GN already tested this. When a OC doesn't net any performance boosts, its not a stable OC.
It might be a problem with the thermal pad between the videochip and the vapor chamber, it is worse than a good thermal paste, and definitely worse than liquid metal (i`d like to see that done)
Try opening GPUZ and checking the sensors, it's probably power capping the whole time which is why you're not getting any more performance.
Im pretty sure that theres was already an "problem" with last gen where overclocks don't lead to that much better performance and sometimes even decreased. I'd assume its due to the gpu having to correct so many calculation errors that it in the end doesn't get that much more performance out of it and sometimes even stays the same or just crashes like 3dmark. Also clock speeds don't matter that much due to the same reasons that tflops don't matter that much. Theres simply alot more going on in the gpu than just the shader cores.
If someone haven't already said this. When overclocking, always validate each tweak with running a game or synthetic benchmark with a score. Higher clocks doesn't isn't the same as higher fps. Gamers nexus discoverd this while benching. Just wanted to get this out there if it's not common knowledge yet.
Can you edit bios to increase power limit? It might help.
i think the min frequency shouldnt be messed with it kinda added some input lag for me so maybe test without it once
I like how at the end of the video he asks us what kind of clocks we were able to get out of the cards because most people couldn’t even get a card lol.
I wouldn't trade a few frames per second for instability. -One is noticeable; the other only in benchmarks.
The fact that there's an affiliate link is hilarious considering they were all sold out within the span of 30-45 seconds
Cant wait for the 6900xt reviews an prices
It would be nice to actually be able to buy one of these cards. At launch they were instantly out of stock just like the Rtx 3000s and checking every couple of hours since has turned up nothing. Of course minutes after launch they were listed on eBay for 2-4 times msrp.
The issue is the memory bandwidth. I think, they did it because it will be easier to sell the RDNA3 cards with prob. more cache and more memory bandwidth on 5 nm. Those cards will be at least 30% faster in 1440p and 4 K, but not sure, in 1080p.
yep andd this happened. ur observation is great man.. 👍👍
Sounds like the bottleneck is in the memory- did you try OC the mem clock?
if they are not samsung i do not recommend😂😂
@@haloo3951Именно Samsung
@@lesgrossman834 where do u saw?
@@haloo3951 yeah, my rtx2070 has micron, but it still overclocks memory by 400mhz completely stable 24/7 in everything. 600mhz is stable with no artifacts in all but a few games. like far cry 5 has a weird issue with red glowy dots appearing occasionally. makes you feel like you are seeing anomolys or ufo's or something. i thought it was part of the game at first, lol. so i just stick with 400mhz.
ive heard 2070 super cards with samsung can do +1000mhz though. so yeah, you are right. samsung is king of gpu memory overclocking. same goes for standard ram i believe?
@@socks2441 yea im not trusting micron anymore for what them did in my 2080ti😂😂
Red dragon i have 2500 MHz and 1050mV But on the 2600 also works, only the coils moan louder
thats really weird. most gpus ive owned overclocking by 50-100mhz has at least 1 or 2 fps difference in all games, and way more in some. especially when paired with memory overclocks. so a 400+mhz overclock should have more effect. even when stock is 2.2ghz or so. thats only 200mhz more than most cards have been for a while, so it doesnt make a 400+mhz overclock a notably smaller percentage.
p.s - was he overclocking memory too? or just core. and how well does the memory overclock, or can it be? how does the infinity cache affect traditional core and memory overclocking. and to make up for using gddr6 instead of 6x are the memory speeds already pushing their limits out of the box to leave little headroom for overclocking?
sorry. questions, questions. and more questions
Probably memory bandwidth is at the limit, and increased GPU frequency doesnt give better results. Is a well balanced GPU
if thats the case, imagine the next gen version with gddr6x memory, higher bit bus speeds and still with a superfast infinity cache, and whatever other improvements they come up with such as ipc increase, transistor count increase, perf per watt increase, new, lower die size. would be an overclocking monster, and with actual performance benefits to go with it.
@@socks2441 consider that memOC seems artifically locked. there will be bios editors that probably will unlock artificial limitations
I was mad that they ONLY sold online through their site, aside from a few in person sales. I didn't know that. If I did, I would have been on Amds site instead of amazon, newegg, best buy and B&H. I was online, waiting and ready, but I was straight up on the wrong page.....I guess I'll go for a board partner card next week.
The frequency is good on, good card. Close to 3080 in performance but one generation behind on ray trace. And sadly it’s not a contents creater card .
Found 2400min/2600max worked for my rig.
Awesome overclocking. Kinda sad that a 400-500mhz overclock only give like 8-10% in fps.
Gpu clocks aside, what isbthe architectural bottleneck? Memory?
Hey Gamermeld, can you upload a UserBenchmark with your overclocked 6800xt?
Why not a vram overclock? It's potentially starved at 4k with the slower gddr6 memory, so ocing that might yield better results than a core oc. You can oc a zen3 to 6ghz, but it won't do much if your ram is only at 2400mhz cl20.
My junction temp reached 111c with 15%, 2650 max, 2550 min, 2100 mhz vram.
I can't wait to see this card on water! If a factory design can go that hard on air...?💪💪💪
After playing with this for a week or so it does not care how high the max clock is set to other than getting that high and not increasing actual fps.Set your voltage to 1025 speed to 2300/2550 max out the power. And then watch it literally smoke every super high oc that you have done. Getting 80-90 in cyberpunk 4k ultra and its pretty amazing.
Doubt it
Proof or it didn’t happen also what fsr setting ultra performance?
Seeing how high these overclock now(with little performance gains), and how high the 5700xt overclocked, also with low gains at launch, makes me hopeful, as my 5700xt is performing WAY better now than at launch, i think it improved in rough performance from 2070 super, to 2080(non super) at stock clock speeds, but now, it overclocks to 2025mhz instead of hitting a wall at 1850-1950mhz, all while somehow being cooler on the core and junction?
That's good to hear.
i heard that Radeon gpu's improve over time
Wouldn't be to sure, one of the reasons that drivers improved perf so much over time at amd'S camp was the fact that the architecture simply was built in such a way that games couldn't get that much performance out of it without extensive optimization, them making an architecture purely for gaming probably means that this architecture is pretty good at extracting all of its performance, though ofcourse I could also be wrong on this assumption. Not that it matters that much, these gpu's are already pretty powerful.
I HAVE THE 6800XT AND I CANT RUN WARZONE FORTNITE RUNS BUT IT STUTTERS CONSTANTLY AT LOW SETTINGS, AND WHEN I TURN ON EPIC SETTINGS ITS UNPLAYABLE. EVERYTHING IS UPDATED BIOS, DRIVERS,CHIPSET, AND WINDOWS I ALSO HAVE THE 5900X SO IM NOT BOTTLENECKING THE GPU. MINECRAFT AND CSGO RUN FINE, SO AM I MISSING SOMETHING OR IS IT GG FOR MY GPU.
Aib cards with increased power limits and even better cooling are going to be very interesting.
I wanna see a power play table for this thing. I can see it at 3ghz.
Let's just start baking in the scalper markup margin for the price/performance calculation charts from now on. That's the new price for hardware going forward, apparently.
great video
I agree i got the 6900 and overclocking it but it realy does not go for the freq that I set it just slightly goes over the one it did from stock, it does feel like a fake overlocking feeling I do not like it.
When this gpu saturates more over time with better driver and support, its gonna be even better perfomer.
I thought I was the only the only one who couldnt get Afterburner to work with the 6800xt. I had the same experience as you OC'ing the card, except I noticed while benchmarking each increase of clock speed, I got zero performance gains. I dont believe the card actually hit 2700 mhz. The software is still broken.
The face killed me man💀
Can't wait for sapphire 6900XT toxic 2.5 GHz stock
RX 6800 XT out of stock edition
@Sebi273 good for you, did not work for me in my country :/
what about the memory speed?
I think, in order to get even more performance in games with all this overclock, must surpass CPU bottleneck too. Someone got a ryzen 9 5950X on LN and the overclocked radeon 6800XT show a real performance uplift.
My reaction: now that is adorible amd slightly fasteee. wait a minute dat overclock dayum son
well... I think the card is fully optimized for the speed of the vram.
so they found a sweet spot with the default setup, a good performance / watt
so you have to overclock the ram to increase the performance for sure
for now the overclocking is disapointing.
yeah imagine when these cards get revamped with faster ddr6x
Yes, when there is a Memort Overclock and 2430mhz it would be really good
good stuff
benches ? just clock in oc tool doesnot matte rthat performance increases
So wait, is the OC headroom all relative? In other words can you expect the same or close fps boost at max oc as you would with say a 2000 series max oc? Or does the extra voltage make a big difference?
Edit so I just saw the performance at the end, looks like it's all relative then.
I was able to get the clockspeed of imagination
Does 600 mhz Boost clock speed reflects in real game improvement? 2600 is the real clock speed ? Can we see a clock over time test?
I bet performance was vram bandwidth bound.
Please undervolt at 1volt and overclock 2300 or 2200 for more stability. Only 170 watts, same performance.
You can do 0,900 at 2000 it's lowest wattage ever less 150 with massive performance
Can you verify that it's actually running at those speeds?
Have a great day
I'm having really bad stability issues on standard with the 6800xt and ryzen 5950x. all brand new build. Game crashesin BFV and WARZONE
Higher clock speed only gives more FPS to a point, and over that point you will lower FPS, so it's quite possible you clocked too high.
all i say is " order in process " * waiting *
2675 is my stable max freq too. Hey look, regardless of basically matching it's nvidia counterpart, I'm just happy to no longer support their scummy pricing. 10% performance boost for 100% more in price.
How any other ppl thought the voice was Austin?
2500-2600 is stable ish and 2450-2550 100% stable. Your card is absolute unit.
Same with CPUs, won't get to the Max. Freq. if it can help it. As Lisa Su said: Zen 2 and 3 have tons of more sensors for temp, power, performance, to tune the efficiency of the CPU and now probably their GPU, so this sub-max and sub-min behaviour doesn't surprise me. Great clocks! The disappointing performance I think it's because of the very limited 256-bit Bus, instead of at least 320-bit, it got saturated and higher clocks, not even the Infinity Cache which is L3 Static-RAM Cache probably won't be able to compensate for it, or use 384-bit Bus and GDDR6X, for a +50% bandwidth, or just HBM2e; I think it was built for price and not really to out perform the RTX 3000s
you should overclock memories
