6800XT clocks?

[Sarra]

I've got a Gigabyte RX 6800XT Gaming OC card. Gigabyte's website shows the GPU clock is supposed to be 2285 MHZ, but MSI Afterburner and the AMD Radeon Software both detect the GPU clock as 2404MHZ. I'm not having temp or performance issues, but... I'm confused. I shouldn't be running an OC. Is this possibly due to the issues I've seen before from Ryzen Master, where Ryzen Master would OC your GPU if you were running PBO?

Are you running on the OC BIOS? 

I have an Asus TUF RX 6800 XT, the website says up to 2340 MHz boost clock, but mine with the OC BIOS, the clock speed is 2400 MHz standard with OC up to 2800 MHz, stable around 2600 MHz.

Do keep in mind that based on the website for your GPU, the default BIOS is the OC BIOS and not the silent BIOS.

It's been a long time since I looked, but I'm not sure if I have a BIOS switch.

 

If I do, then yes, I put it to the OC BIOS. I'm undervolting as well, but I do recall that I've never touched the core clock speed setting.

That's normal. GPU and CPU these days will boost it's clock speed past rated spec when certain conditions met like power limit, voltage, temperature, etc.

I wasn't quite expecting 200 mhz, PBO only gives me like 20-50 on my CPU. Then again, my CPU is struggling to stay cool, so PBO probably has no headroom to begin with. ECO mode didn't help with full power loads, but idle is really improved. GPU with a custom fan curve idles at like 36°c, so that's not an issue at least.
