I have also come to the conclusion that 2200mhz is the sweet spot for efficiency. That is measured by taking the Timespy gpu score divided by the power usage reported in GPUz. I am going to set my day to day clock speed with a per-game overclock for the games that need it.
This is almost exactly how I have my RDNA2 GPUs set, 6600 XT, 6700 XT, 6800 XT. Though depending on silicon quality that can vary a bit as I think the 6600 XT balances out at closer to 2300. And IMO it's no coincidence the 6400 is fixed at at 2300 MHz to maintain that low 51W power limit. As a random data point my 7700 XT balances this out at 26-2700 MHz in most games, interesting to see the 5nm+chiplet design resulting in a +4-500 MHz efficiency point.
I tailor my clock speeds, core and VRAM, to the game being played as well. Frankly, for me that's part of the fun and you get to know your GPU better.
