I'm not sure, but I think the clicking noise is because of the pump may have some air bubbles trapped in there. Mounting the radiator higher than the pump should fix it a little bit.
glad to see someone with the same approach to the solution of this problem :D
Came here to say the same thing.
@@nehalmayekar1435 I think we all watched that GN video xd
I have the same card with my radiator mounted in top of case and the same sound persists. Just a noisy pump.
@@monkdot3263 how noisy is it?
Hahaha "Holy! RIP GPU... nice ending for the people that stayed. :) Love the video as always Roman.
Thank you for speaking about the excessive use of plastics in this industry!!
There's a thicker plastic film on the back plate which I can understand because of all the capacitors and everything but when I peeled it it took the serial number sticker with it as well.
Gimme metal and a plastic GPU bracket any day smh

@@Acraft8 You can get cheap GPU metal bracket or support that has a magnetic base and has two adjustable clamps. Look up "glotrends Graphics Card GPU Brace Support Video Card Sag Holder/Holster Bracket for Computer Cases, Universal VGA Graphics Card Holder,Anodized Aerospace Aluminum (Black) ". That's what I used )cost £12.99 at time of purchase) for a relative's build and the magnetic base is stupidly strong. I put it in where the hdd cage would be as it as Cit F3 case (extremely cheap and budget case bought for about £20 off ebay and came with two fans). Since the case was ridiculously light when empty I shook it extremely hard holding around waist level and the base never came loose.
It's utterly ridiculous. I've had my PC for over a year now and I found yet another piece of plastic film on the motherboard when I cleaned it today.
3:39 raising the radiator at a higher level than GPU, it may help in removing that noise (not sure but it can cause air trapped to move out if the pump is present on the GPU side). It should be set before turning the pump on.
I have the 6800 XT ROG Strix LC version mounted vertically, mine doesn't make any noise and I run my computer next to me without the glass panel on usually, it's very quiet. I installed that Asus Armory Crate RGB software and it ruined the RGB in my system. It made my G. Skill Trident Z RGB strobe like crazy when installing and it also shut the RGB off on my card and couldn't control it via software.
The worst part is that this GPU wasn't supported by Asus's software as of 2 weeks ago so I uninstalled it. Otherwise the card is a total beast.
@@TerraWare dang, lost like 20FPS without all those blinking RGB there.
it sounds like cavitation to me

I know one who actually does that with his old Sony w810i phone lawl xD

@@Starscreamious we are in 2021. After that 2022 will come i guess - good luck runing Cyberpunk 2077, Control, cold war, BG3, and many new games ahead without it
@@eli5611 I'm still unable to buy a GPU due to no stock. I'm planning on buying a 6900XT or RTX3090 because I need the VRAM for 2160p gaming. I only care about raw performance.
Worked in steel industry for decades. The film comes pre-applied or is applied when the coil is slit or cut to length at the service center. It's there to protect surface while the material goes through the remaining processes such as punching or folding or plasma/laser/water cutting, etc. It saves many tons of product for the cost of a little plastic. It has absolutely nothing to do with the vendor. Critical part of the chain that will never go away.
How would polyethylene be there during plasma cutting? It'd melt.
protective film on fan hubs annoying too...
I routinly send complains directly to manufacturer by email, to complain about details like this. This is the only way to make them really take a notice, and think about their design and future products.
Hey, since this is an AMD card, I'd suggest you to use AMD Memory Tweak XL for the overclocking. When I had my Vega 64, I had the same problems of not being able to undervolt while overclocking in MSI afterburner or similar software but I tried Memory Tweak XL and it worked flawlessly. It has frequency selection based on power states and each power state can be assigned a certain voltage. Also, instead of forcing a certain frequency at a certain voltage, it just sets the maximum limit to the frequency at that voltage so the card boosts according to the voltage. Sorry if my words are a little hard to understand, but I hope Memory Tweak XL works
I use the AMD software on mine for tweaking it. I didn't like that Asus software at all. I have a few profiles set on it too. Max OC/ Mild/ Different fan profiles etc. The usual.
@@TerraWare same here, i really dislike gpu tweak
Shiek jumping on the GPU at the end: is she nvidia fangirl?? :D
Most prefer nVIDIA GPUs over AMD GPUs.
@@basshead. yeah ppl are stupid and never open to other ideas
@@JamesBond-vi2eh They are stupid because they want the best GPUs?
The sound of the pump is due to how you have the radiator sitting to the side below the card. It's called cavitation.
I have the 6800 XT Rog Strix LC and it's great in temps and noise. Highest I've been able to get it to clock is 2.7Ghz 100% stable. It always maintains low 50's Celcius. Love the look too, it was made to be mounted vertically.
Have one to;) it's very nice oc straight to 2.7 ghz no problem daily use. The only problem i have with it is the same as in the vid. Rgb lights start once when i remove cpu or reset bios after that lights off;) never to be see again... I'm not a big fan of rgb but still will be nice to be able to turn it on for special occasions.
@@wulfyenstein Yeah 2.7Ghz and maxed memory 2150Mhz no problem. 2.8Ghz is a crash. I can get it to 2.76Ghz too but it's not 100% stable. 2.7 is more than plenty and I don't daily use it like that. I have a few profiles set and end up using Radeon Chill in certain games like Baldur's Gate 3 for example.
The RGB experience with me was that Asus's Armory Crate software is utter garbage imo. I installed it and it shut off the RGB in the card, it messed up all my RGB settings in my PC including ruining my G.Skill Trident Z RGB where it started to strobe extremely fast and doesn't work properly now (the RGB).
Come to find out that this GPU isn't or wasn't supported by Asus's own RGB software. It wouldn't recognize it and wasn't in supported GPU list, yet. I uninstalled it but some of the bloatware remained behind which was still messing with my RGB. I had to download an uninstaller from Asus to remove everything. Absolutely ridiculous Asus, wth.
Why does it need to be so complicated. I had a Sapphire Nitro+ 5700 XT before this GPU and the software was amazing. It controlled the GPU RGB, had some overclocking and upscaling features and that's it. I don't want to install Asus's whole suite of resource hogging software. Give me something to control my RGB for the product I bought. Anyway this is the only thing I despise about this GPU, it's Asus's own RGB software which will ruin your experience because your other components aren't made by them. Apparently Asus wants you to upgrade all your components to their brand or else. No thanks.
Even their own GPU Tweak software used in this video to tune the card is lacking at best. Just use the AMD Radeon Software, you can do all your tuning from there much easier.
Sorry for the rant lol but stuff like this annoys me because this is an amazing GPU that is ruined by this stuff. The RGB is currently on the rainbow wave pattern and that's good enough.
Please use the more power tool, by igors lab, you can increase the power above the 323w limit and set the undervolt like you wanted in this video also.
I run my 6900xt red devil at 2750 mhz with a 355w limit and 1140v, please see what you can do with that tool.
I have the Red Devil 6900 XT as well. I'm running 2700, 1110mV, 2150-fast, +15% power target, and MPT@320w (about 350w in gpu-z). My timespy extreme GT1 is 67.25 FPS. What is yours?
What does that mean you are running it at 2750. You set it to 2750MHz in the OC software? or you are seeing sustained 2750MHz, which means you must have the OC software set to somewhere around 2850MHz.
@@StatsGam4er I have my clock set at 2850, and it will sustain low 2800s.

Thanks for this video Roman very informative. As for the price on this gpu I can confirm right now in Canada 🇨🇦 this gpu is selling for $1,700 CAD. So that would be roughly $1,327.08 USD for anyone who might be interested in knowing.

Engineer: What type of cooler do you want?

Asus: the one like that evga overclocking guy makes
The pump was making those noises because the inlet on the radiator was lower than the pump on your table. Air bubbles get trapped at the highest point, in this case, the pump, which is bad.
Thanks for this. I just ordered this card from Newegg tonight. Can't wait!!
Thx for raising awareness about plastic films
yes, those noobs from big companies, using too much plastic. And they don't think about environment
I agree with you about the plastic. There's so much unnecessary packing material in so many products. It makes me kind of sad. Like.. what can I do about it.. nothing :/
lmfao
Reason why its making that noise from the pump its because the cables are, meant to be going down and the radiator should be mounted up, so the water flows down the cable not straight across where its struggling. Not a big fan of how it would look with those cables hanging especially if you have a liquid CPU cooler as well, then you will have cables every where and the build will look messy.
Great review! Although, it doesn't surprise me that the pump was making noise. The pump was at the highest point in the loop the way you had it set up, definitely getting air bubbles!
Not asus fault if there is plastic film... It s the compagny making the sheet of steel
8:00 when you're german and pronouncing 72 starts with 2 in german but with 7 in english.
I may be showing some ignorance, but you have the card mounted vertically with the radiator standing vertically and lower than the pump so that any air in the line is going to and being trapped in the pump. Just an observation.
are we just going to ignore the naruto outro remix?! i love it. def a mark of a guy that was born in 1988 xD
So...Available by Christmas?
They put plastic on it because the don't trust their production line not to scratch it before making it to the box.
looks like a sound card whit a fan on it XD
I always thought I was the only one that doesn't like peeling crappy plastic out of everywhere. thumbs up dude!
Earned a subscriber as soon as he complained about the excessive plastic protective film. Very important to be environmentally conscious especially as a tech enthusiast...
Is there a particular reason why you are twisting the AIO tubes like that? I have never seen anyone do that before, I think...
As long as there are no kinks in the tubes it's perfectly fine.
I have the 6800XT version of this...LOVE IT!!
Just because you talk about the excessive use of plastics and the way you cared about our enviroment, I subcribed. Just for that.
For pump clicking noise, put a small Magnet on top of the pump, and no sound, and not make any changes to the temp 😀
Well done. I'm leaving a comment for reach because you deserve more views;)
the protective film is about protecting the part from scratches that would bring customers to ask for a refound of the product ...because when guyz pay 1500£ a product they want it perfect so no its not a waste of ressources
It's been 23+ years since I was around some production shops, but, shiny materials needed to be coated to reduce reflectivity.The covering used to be white.
nice original content as usual
my 6800xt
2650mhz + 2100ram + 1030v undervolt (like in video: getting 1150 in demanding tests) , 9170 graphics in timespy extrem :) ... + home made watercooled loop.. seems i got the same temps , 70° max on tjunction
There is absolutely (almost) no info about the Red Devil RX 6900 XT. I have the limited edition here. I would love to see a video from you about it. Please make one 🙏 you would fulfill a wish for many many people.
Nice vid..
Managed to pick up the XFX 6900xt Merc 319 just before xmas and have not found many videos of it online.. new to AMD graphics cards and did not think about lowering the voltage of the card, Was finding it hard to up my score on timespy but as soon as I undervolted it a bit I got about 800 extra score just from doing that.
Totally agree with the pump noise! Very nice review!
You're damned right about packaging, I'd rather the product came in a plain cardboard box and save some money.
Remove it and everyone starts complaining about scratches out of the box. It's like the wax they put on Apples, sure it shouldn't be there but most people don't like the Apples that aren't shiny.
The plastic isn’t to stop scratch’s it’s to stop finger prints
You mean the workers in the factory would need to use gloves? The LDPE film is dumb (even though it's one of the actually recyclable plastics).
@@stanimir4197 on the consumer side. I mean it’s sooo difficult to remove them. This is sarcasm.
@1:00 also the GPU port plastic port covers which are really not necessary as the GPUs come in foam padded box. Secondly, even if you are buying pre-owned GPUs second hand etc... sellers usually never even include them. Therefore it's a unnecessary waste and expense to oems. @3:39 Yup, clearly audible. 16:28 RIP... 😅. Thanks for indepth review once again 😄.
Why does the 6900xt have a 3ghz limit yet only goes to 2.7ghz like the 6800xt ?????
2750 mhz might be the limit of the strix app he's using. 3000mhz should be achievable with other software
@@ivanbrasla but today no 6900xt from any brand has gone over 2.7x with any software.
Yes they have. Google gives me atleast 1 example where they used LN2, not sure of what software they used to oc
@@ivanbrasla doubtful. Others have used ln2 and it still didn't go over 2.7x
Just got one brand new for $1000 USD I’m excited tbh 😁
I got a used one, still good.
and the reason your pump was clicking is cause theres a bunch of air in it, your radiator needs to be positioned correctly
So protective film is bad for the environment, but burning 500W/hour playing video games all day (like I do) is fine.
Do you happen to know which of the 6900xt AIBs are the best? Can’t seem to find any info. Maybe a ranking if you had it?
As per usual; MSI and ASUS.
I straight up forgot thatr AMD released the 6000 series GPUs because my PC news feed has been flooded with RTX 3000 being out of stock.
yeah that's the nvidia strategy, typical ...
I can't be the only one who thought it was odd that, as soon as the RTX 3000-series dropped, there was LOADS of content on them, lots of builds - and, when the RX 6000-series dropped, we've just seen a slow trickle of occasional 6000-series content. REALLY frustrating as I don't care about RT/DLSS(just don't play any games that feature this tech, it's cool just useless for me), so more info on the 6800XT would be nice to see.
Now, for all I know, AMD may have just gotten a fraction of the reviewer samples out that Nvidia got out there, I certainly don't know the reason, but hopefully it changes.
@@RyTrapp0 certainly a consequence of a lot of payed reviews all over the internet and tech website, when you see some test that don't correspond to reality figures sometimes ... and nvidia flooding with cards models and so making content for reviewers , some reviewers don't care about impartiality and reality usability of features as long as people come to click, then often even troll to create polemic and make people clic and respond, everything that makes views makes money
@@RyTrapp0 They're still going to sell every single one they make. They have the market to themselves, the miners are buying all of the nvidia cards.
Good on you for speaking out on waste! That shit grinds my gears too.
Its just PR man... the bigger problem lies elsewhere
the tuf gaming 6900 is stable at 2750 with 5900x at 5ghz across all cores for me.
Wheres the rest of the benchmarks
All that overclocking on these RX 6000 series and the yield is like 2fps in benchmarks? I've seen some gain around 5-7 fps in gaming but you'd think with such a huge overclock potential you would see alot more frames.
I understand the pump is making noise and not to say you’re stupid or anything but have you tried raising the radiator above the graphics card to see if it’s trapped air in the pump?
Did you speak with Asus? I'm wondering if the clicking was something endemic to the card design or if you happened to get one with a bad bearing or something.
Crap I left out the laser cutting part..
That clicking noise is air trapped in pump-radiator combo. Taking radiator above pump and doing "shaman dance" with card/pump-block below rad should remove it or at least damp it down.
Yes, Steve at Gamer's Nexus talked about this.
For those Who Dont Know, this product hasnt even been released for the public or the DIY market except in India.
When you look at the performance results & Asus price premium the winner is the Powercolor 6800XT Red Devil.
The protective film is there for transport and handling in logistic centers/factory. Cause there are ppl who will return the card if there is a scratch in the stainless steel or plastic. And then it will just get scrapped the whole product for one scratch that could be prevented using a plastic film over it. Soo what is more enviormently friendly? one plastic film or scrapping the whole card.
When I started in like 2004/2005 nothing had these stupid films. So people should change their way of thinking.
In logistics and manufacturing facilities employees wear rubber gloves to avoid damaging the product, instead of that plastic the cards should be protected in esd bags as in the past, serves the same function and more. Nobody throws esd bags in the trash because it serves to put the card back when it is no longer in use or to sell in the used market so no waste.
@@der8auer The way of thinking should be oh my card has a scratch, lets not send it back. as a defective product. I saw this in the Logistic business, did you know that if an iphone box, the cardboard box has a scratch it is considered a defective product and scrapped. literally there are "trusted" companies who has the trust of apple and other companies that they will destroy the box and the content so nobody will get it. I 100% agree on how wasteful this world is, the issue unfortunately are not the companies, but the consumers and here I really mean the word consumer.
Obviously most companies do this iphone was just an example.
Well, if you flip the radiator to a higher point the air that are trapped in the pump might just be at the top of the radiator as it should be. Then that sound is going away because the air is in the radiator not in the pump damaging it.
So that cracking noice is because you didn't think about where the air i going (highest point in a loop). And here is the pump.
Never ever mount a pump higher than a radiator people 👍🏻
Hi, can you tell me what power supply you are using? Do you have 3x (4x2) power supply PCI-E cables going into the GPU?
Also what colour are the lights when you plug your power cables in?
So jelly of you Roman, you already have a C8DH and I can't even get one in the BeNeLux.
Did you ever figure out what the pump noise was?
I know there’s no one to one reviews, but does anyone know how this graphics card does against the RTX 3080?
Honest question: are the plastic films already on the bulk materials at the factory and are the manufacturers just _not_ removing them? There are a lot of sheet goods - acrylic sheets, aluminum panels, stainless steel rolls, etc. that have plastic separators that are just left on for subsequent steps like punch pressing, bending, waterjet cutting, etc.
Would be interesting to find out
This is exactly right. Some of these parts get banged around a lot before being used in final assembly.
Got the Sapphire Nitro+ version waiting for me today. I had the 6800 XT version of yours there and had issues with directx failing, ended up selling the card when Warzone would crash over and over again. Any notes to compare aside from benchmark numbers?
Shiek is savage 16:26
How did you manage to get a readout of the fan speed? No program I tried (GPU Tweak, MSI Afterburner, AMD Radeon, GPU Z...) was able to show me the actual fan speed. Also, I can't configure my own curve. It's either 0rpm or 100%.
I see that they made a new Strix, TOP model on the new silicon? is that any woth, and that should not have driver limit? worth picking up?
The more I look at these OC videos for the 6900 XT the more I feel I won the Silicon lottery wiht mine. I run mine @ 2625-2725, an dit hovers betweeen 2690-2715 core, with the memory slider maxed. I haven't even played with voltages, and I'm just on air. My house is 72 F. GPU doesn't get above 68 C. According to the temp I get off my Z63 kraken screen. My 6900 XT is an Asrock Reference design model

@@PraveenKumar-fk1of It was new when I bought it and the software issues have all been resolved. What really helped was removal of the riser cable that allowed a vertical mount. The issue was I have a pci express 4.0 on the motherboard and the card is also 4.0 and I used a 3.0 riser cable which caused a lot of issues, so I simply removed the riser and it works flawless now. Well, for AMD it is flawless at least. Lets face it, it is no 3090 from Nvidia.

@El Cactuar ahah .. (just 50% laughing)
Anyone who wants consistent performance from an AMD card knows water-cooling is a MUST. Going forward all AMD GPUs should ship with 120mm to 240mm radiator.
Yeah you didn't do the ARGB setup portion correctly. You have it unchecked. Aura Sync is beyond incredible... Also, not sure why you spent so long talking about a protective film from the manufacturer. That was surprising to see.
Thx for the commentary on single use plastics!! THat's a nice lookin card.
This card is listed (but not available ofc) at 1700€ at my local retail shops, utterly BS pricing, at this point just get 3090 for ~150€ more and get best of the both worlds, vram, ray tracing perf and best raster perf.
I dont know who decides where the Ads go, but men that shit scared me. When you said "let me try to show you the pump noise" I put my head next to the speaker, and this lady goes "Hey!!!", scared the shit out of me lol
Anyways I personally dont see the point of buying basically the best and most expensive 6900XT to then undervolt it. Its like buying a Kingpin card and leave it at stock clocks. Either buy a cheaper model, or just get a 6800XT.
Great video 👍
More screen time for the cat, please!
Are there any german webshops offering this? I can only find the 6800xt version
Idk man, if you paid for that Massive Price for that product.
I'd want that experience of unboxing the product, and peeling off those films.
I bought once GPU with this cooling (EVGA 1080Ti Hybrid) and I returned it same day, beacuse guess what - no pump speed control! Pump ran at 100% all the time, it was unbearable. I dont know what´s wrong with this pump, possibly some air bubbles in the pump
Damn all those cables.
Quick question if you can remember. Do the tubes from the cold plate rotate? Cause mine do and I am afraid the liquid might find a way to drip. Thanks
What hotspot temps does yours reach and at what overclocks/power limits?
Unfortunately some people get worked up over smudges on the unit and try to return it.
The gpu noise is so common that i think Asus just went with it. They know about this problem. Im sure 100%. Why are all companies dont fix their problem like Arctic did? If they have a faulty product thet shouls pull it off the market.
if you raise the rad above the pump does the noise go away?
Would this card still run with just 2x8 connections? Or must I connect all 3?
Are the fans changeable ? Are they hard wired or plug?
I just got the ROG STRIX 3080 Ti version of this and my pump sound exactly the same and it's been doing this for over a week and my raditator have always been the highest point. Also, I've tried shaken the radiator to make the boubles move through and I could suddently hear the water flow through fast but pump still says these weird click sounds.
I have a rog strix 6800xt and the pump rattle ends up coming through the speakers if you listen quietly
Pretty obnoxious. Thinking about returning and getting something else .
