The Radeon RX 6900/6950 XT Owners Thread.

[Scramz]

Did you buy that from the AMD Store and you live in the UK?

Yep. Didn’t charge me tax either.

EDIT: am I breaking any rules writing that, not sure if AMD store is classed as a competitor?

 

[xenosys1983]

Seems Jay needs to learn about AMD overclocking - he spent way too long on Nvidia cards

Agreed. The guy's basically got the best 6900XT money can buy with a golden sample, a custom bios, ice water setup, and he still can't crack 21K on Timespy.

With more juice using MPT, and some tweaking, he should be getting an easy 22k+.

 

[Dontrocktheboat]

Yep. Didn’t charge me tax either. Cost about £780.

Did you do it through discord ?

Not sure if I’m allow to discuss here.

EDIT: Not sure if I was breaking rules so removed.

 

[JediFragger]

Not sure if I’m allow to discuss here. I just changed shipping country to GB at checkout. That’s it. GB was in the drop down for shipping.

What was the original country, USA?

Thats odd - It isn't a nitro, isn't a toxic... what is it? Just an MBA sapphire branded card? Im still on the hunt for the Nitro/Toxic to go with my collection

Yep MBA, had the block ready since January for it!

Ahh that makes sense... the box artwork threw me as the 6900 has the golden box! 6700xt has the yellow fire, and the 6800xt the blue... I have just the golden box missing

I picked up the 6700XT Nitro+ for my son. Going to be interesting how this clocks at that side of that, as it clocks very high. No issues hitting 2865Mhz when he's playing Fortnite. It didn't take any work to top the 3Dmark tables with it for a 3700x/ 6700xt config either.

Your son should be very happy Well done there!

Probably hit that magic "just under 2.7ghz" that most of them hit. Mine will do 2.7 but wont really go any further. I haven't even properly fitted the 6700xt yet, I tested to make sure it wasn't doa but right now I'm sticking to the 7 in the wifes machine and the 6700xt can stay in the box untill I decide im done with the 7 or I decide to stop being lazy and actually do the swap over properly. The 7 is just too good at mining to pull out of that machine right now.

Did you see the Jay 2 Cents disaster video? Totally clueless just about covers it! Be nice to get back 4K gaming after the Vii been moved on last year. Not been too much fun finishing off Borderlands 3 on a RX550 2GB lol.

I didn't but then isn't he intel/nv through and through? Not that I particularly dislike that at all but I find his overall platform knowledge on AM4/ AMD GPU's pretty lacking.

Put simply I don't sub to a lot of the more popular reviewers like Jayz, Linus etc.

It made him look foolish to me, the video was a massive shame as the potential of what he did could have been record breaking.
