AMD RX6**** series are crap when it comes to crypto mining, how can rx6900xt do 64MH per when RX5700XT is capable of the same massive hashrate and rx5700XT are way cheaper than this so called high end RX6900XT

Lets not make it into stupid AMD one gen versus AMD other gen thing (of course it would be more stupid to bring nvidia into it too Cheesy

) ... 6900xt plays so much better than 5700xt and actually these things are primarily designed for gaming

Should be other thread with this info.
Pretty sure 6900xt is same chips as 6800xt just binned for better clocks and lower power.

I run my 6800xt at 1200 core 2150mem fasttiming on. 625mV thru bios mod.
Runs 64mh/s at 136w.
Use to run 64.6mh/s at 137w but for some reason i cant find that sweet spot anymore.
You can get some down to 108w if u mess around with tdp and stuff but I also game so didnt want to push it.

Edit: also try Phoenixminer 5.5c and 21.1.1 drivers if ur stuck getting problems. At least thats whats working well for me.
Lately I have been having issues with it not going to 135-136w and have to keep loading profile and moving core up and down like 10 to try get it so lock to watt range.
Never use to do this always was 137w and 64.6mh/s 100% of time, didnt change drivers or miner or anything. Now im loading profile like 10times to get to 64mh/s Sad

Im also a gamer but updating bios seems bit too far for me

... I actually got into mining by trying to heat my room while not playing

I had vega 64 on almost all two last winters and even didnt know anything about the cryptomarket itself, until beginning of this year I accidentally looked into my wallet and I was well surprised Cheesy

... this year I upgraded my main gaming rig video card to 6900xt and I manage to secure 3080 for my home server(home server - place where I create and then solve these problems for fun, kind of way of making myself feel smart time to time

)

it looks like actually that same mining profitability calculator shows that 6800xt have better hashrate than 6900xt. How big is the risk in that bios update ? Does it affect gaming in any way ?
