Benchmark Scores Superposition: 4277 Heaven: 2628 3DMark Time Spy: 11776 3DMark Fire Strike: 30281
Hey there. Looked for a thread focused on the 6700 XT, but couldn't find one, so thought i'd provide my findings after benchmarking my reference PowerColor 6700XT.

I used to following for benchmarking...
  • AMD's Adrenalin Stress Test,
  • Unigine Superposition
  • Unigine Heaven
  • 3DMark Time Spy
  • 3DMark Fire Strike
  • Deus Ex: Mankind Divided Benchmarking tool (getting back into PC gaming, hence the older game :D)

Rest of my recently upgraded system...
  • AMD Ryzen 5 5600X OEM Processor (w/ Deepcool Gammaxx 400 V2 Blue CPU Cooler) - @4.6GHz, with S.A.M. enabled.
  • Gigabyte B550 Aorus Pro AX Motherboard
  • PowerColor Radeon RX 6700 XT 12GB
  • Crucial Ballistix 16GB (2x 8GB) DDR4 3600MHz Memory
  • Kingston A2000 1TB M.2 NVMe PCIe 3 SSD
  • WD Blue 3D Nand 500GB SATA SSD
  • Seagate Barracuda 2TB HDD
  • Cooler Master CM690 II Advanced Case - Modified with 3 intake fans (2 front/1 floor), 2 exhaust fans (1 ceiling, behind CPU)/1 rear), removed HDD cage:

So after testing, these were proved as stable tweaks for this card...

GPU Clock: 2400-2830MHz
Voltage: 1100mV
VRAM: 2150MHz
(Max Fan Speed: 100%)
(Power Limit: 15%)


Here are the Benchmark scores at STOCK >>>> OC...

Superposition 3953 >>>> 4277
Heaven 2431 >>>> 2628
3DMark Time Spy 11208 >>>> 11776
3DMark Fire Strike 29060 >>>> 30281
Deus Ex: Mankind Divided Benchmark Average FPS 87.2 >>>> 93.5

& a couple of screens showing the temps/power draw after stress testing for 5 minutes in Adrenaline STOCK >>>> OC...

Hope this helps out others who have just got their 6700 XT cards or will hopefully have them soon. I was only able to get this cheaper variant as it was apart of a CPU/Mobo/GPU bundle which luckily I was in the market for.

I'm curious to see how consistent these tweaks are across other Reference 6700 XT cards as well as AIB cards, so feel free to add your results below.
