I purchased an RX9070XT yesterday, and have been playing around with it quite a lot. I noticed that the boost clocks sometimes go WAY past factory specifications (2970Mhz to 3200Mhz or so), and when this happens, there usually is a driver timeout crash. This is nothing new, I had the same issue with my RX6800 at higher clocks, so I went into Adrenaline and put a negative offset to the core clock so that it remains under factory specs. However, what absolutely baffles me is that when I do so, the power consumption of the card goes from 300W to 220-230W and it runs 20 degrees cooler, while performance remains basically identical. Can anyone with engineering experience tell me how it is possible for the GPU to consume one third less power while still putting out the exact same performance? Is this just a case of AMD factory specs and driver clock controls being "off" to say the least?
