I don't know if it is a known issue, but it seems the moment you UV and/or OC the card, it tends to be unstable when RT is enabled. I remember reading some forums out there where they a lot of people mentioned that 3D Mark Port Royale will crash when the card is UV and/or OC.

Is cyberpunk (the bugs aside) the game with the most requirement now? lol

I think Microsoft Flight Simulator should be the most demanding. Actually its a combination of demanding and poor optimization in my opinion. It is clearly very CPU bound because it does't utilize anything more than 4 cores if I am not mistaken.

Whats the first ah? thank you

I think this new game Medium is very taxing as well.

Interesting, think I will try it out. Had it installed since launch but never got round to it.

From Steam?

Xbox game pass. It's useful for trying out games before deciding whether to buy on Steam.

Hi,

For Nitro+ Sapphire 6800XT I what mode should I use? Performance(default) or Silent? Any trades off?

Thanks.

Go with the performance BIOS. The silent mode basically cuts the power limit and slows the fans down. You lose performance as a result, but the card runs cooler by default.

I left the BIOS and performance mode, then went ahead to undervolt and overclock the card.

Nope, there are black bars at the side.

You can fix this manually if you wish.

Enabling RT for RX 6000 series would probably result in CTD, or freezes. I was able to play Metro Exodus with RT enabled occasionally, though most of the time, it'd crash within mins, sometimes failing to start game. It does look nice (though I can live without it), haven't tried it on Control yet though...gonna check if I'd bought the game (bought so many, I honestly don't remember), but I believe I did.

Radeon™ Software Adrenalin 2020 Edition 21.2.1

Fixed Issues

• Metro Exodus™ may experience intermittent application crashes with DirectX® Raytracing enabled.

The newest driver seems to have fixed RT issue with Metro Exodus, you can try playing that game again.

Says nothing about Control. Still some Known Issues.

Looks like this game is optimized for consoles, thus, the black bars at the sides with an ultrawide monitor.
