Overclocking
The presence of a heatsink that has the vapor chamber teechnology should eliminate, at least partially, the problems with the excess of heat when overclocking. In order to properly take care of that problem, the fan speed was manually set at 100% during the overclocking tests.
It’s not possible to alter the clock frequencies from third-party software, as usually happens with new models, it’s necessary to wait more recent software releases for full support. However, AMD GPU Clock Tool does work, and that’s what we used to change the frequencies for the test.
