R5 3600 @ 4.2 Ram @ 3.6
6900 @ 2773 & 4276

Not sure what is holding it back to be honest, must be the lowly CPU.

Believe it or not setting the reflection quality to extreme gave lower results not higher.
It is expected as Extreme is more demanding than Ultra so should lower FPS.

The GPU limited rating in your screenshot certainly seems to indicate that your CPU might be holding back your performance a little, as it's in the low 60's when you want it in the mid 80's or higher preferably.

My mistake, when set to Extreme, gave better / higher results by a few FPS

Right, definitely CPU limited.

Time to upgrade to a Ryzen 5000 series CPU, enable Smart access memory, tune that 6900 XT and you will beat my average overclocking 6800 XT with ease. :)

Hoping i can snag a 6900 XT from AMD for RRP and then i beat my own scores.

I'm honestly baffled by the comparison with @Toothy1911 and why my GPU limited percentage is 27% whilst his is 83% as the rigs are very similar.

Hopefully nvidia sort out the SAM very soon seems like i can’t get past 215.3fps in 1080p without watercoolering my gpu should be able to hold 2200mhz then.

Here's a slightly better placeholder score for you to aim for. :)

5950x PBO
6800 XT @ 2550Mhz / 2150Mhz
Adrenalin 12.2.2

1440P

0.9% behind @FireTwo at 1440P.

Gonna require some more tuning of the 6800 XT in the week to make that up.
