Last time i got an XFX RX 7900 XTX Magnetic Air and the clock speed during gaming shows 3000mhz but on the XFX website the maximum clock is about 2615. When i try to default to it with MSI Afterburner it still shows 3000mhz, and in the Afterburner during gaming the memory clock is 2487mhz.
is it the reason my card goes to warranty because it cant go to higher clock?

This is either a bug on the software that reads the clock speed or you won the silicon lottery and got a gold sample that can boost that high.
If you don't see problems and the temperature doesn't go too high up, i don't see the problem. Its free performance.
You could undervolt it to make it run cooler or lower the power slider from the drivers to keep it from boosting so high if you are worried about it.. and if the number is not because of a bug. I had a case when HW info was showing my 7700X running at 11GHz which is obviously not possible.
