3DMARK: Time Spy
If you’ve been using 3D Mark since the days when it was largely full of dragons and Matrix-esque FPS games, you’ll appreciate Time Spy taking you on a trip down memory lane whilst also showing the future too. It’s always a lovely thing to watch which, as people who’ve seen the Fire Strike benchmark a thousand times or more, is a feature we appreciate.

Other people have said in their review that they think something is wrong on the driver and/or firmware side, A card with a fair chunk more under the hood should perform better, Not match a lower tier card or just slightly edge it out in certain titles, Unless RDNA2 really doesn't scale well like AMD said in the past and there are diminishing returns beyond a certain CU count.Quote
Great review Tom !

There's diminishing returns for overclocks as well. Hitting 2.8Ghz is nice, but it only introduces a little extra performance.

Overclocking works well providing you keep the thing cool, failing that it is a case of diminishing returns because of throttling.Quote
When the Asus Strix 6900 XT LC turns up it will be a beast because of the AIO unit it comes with.

Lets just hope the pump on it doent make a horrible whining noise like all the EVGA AIO cards..Quote
They look like pro cards, no bells, whistles or blinky LEDs. Its been a while since I really liked an AMD reference card design.Quote
