Hi everyone!
I'm trying to overclock my "new" (used) rx6800 gpu. But maybe because I only had Nvidia cards before or maybe because I haven't upgraded in a while, I'm having some trouble figuring out how the core clock behaves.
For example on my 1070 I would set the clock and when the card was under load, it would boost very near, or at that frequency. However on the AMD GPU I have to set a maximum and minimum frequency -at least 100 mhz apart- and the clock would sit around the middle.
That means, that although my overclock is stable on benchmarks and games, the card could theoretically boost to the max value, which might be unstable.
