...also hoping for some smart phone results (I don't have one...). As mentioned, Geekbench-6 is cross-platform, and you can >download / link to the required version for your OS here.

...I'm confused - isn't it supposed to be 'death and taxes' instead of taxes after death ?

DerBauer had a look at the factory-blocked 7900XTX, including a look at the pads etc...very nice card (likely binned as well) but very, very pricey.

...the 6900XTs are a ton of fun to 'oc' with the right tools, and very rewarding at 1080p and 1440p (4K is a bit trickier due to the memory bus width)...'regular' Time Spy Graphic Score ~ >25k. That hotspot temp you mentioned, though...needs more of ...Octanebench below (for CUDA) is another bench I did a brief thread on earlier. But unlike Geekbench-6, it is a pig on gas watts. Below is a triple-GPU one which slurped up close to 1300W just for the GPUs...TR 340W CPU on top of that - also a great way to test the resilience of your cooling loop, and/or heat your house in the winter... @Bastiaan_NL ...just having a bit of fun...

@Mr. Fox ...you'll have a lot of fun with it as you can use tools such as MPT (MorePowerTool) that have way more options to manipulate the GPU than most NVidia tools. Furthermore, the way AMD vbios of these gens works, you do not have to flash the actual vbios when using MPT (unlike my comment below in the last paragraph re. 6900XT >> 6950XT). There are lots of sub-menus in MPT, and it pays to read up on them, including on the 'Features / temp_dependent_vmin...' steps. So MPT is your ticket into this and you can download it > here . The usual word of caution though -- theoretically, you can run 1.3v core or more and 600 W...and if you go too crazy . I created a few profiles with MPT for my daily-workhorse-6900XT (after saving the original profile of course) which range from mild to wild. As always, watch the temps as you kick up voltages and PL limits after establishing a stock baseline. My card, a custom w-cooled Giga-G-OC 6900XT, has a good 3x8 pin VRM / PCB / dual bios and with a few MPT steps, I got it up to ~ 2900 MHz purely on ambient temp water-cooling. Geekbench-6 and > its 8 newer tests for GPU Open CL is not without its challenges, but as discussed above, it does not heat the cards up very much due to lower PL as it is cross-platform for Windows, Linux, Android, and macOS. It includes some ML and other new tech. So Geekbench-6 is probably a good, 'safe' app to try for a card-gen new to you as you wrote, such as recent team red. @pioneerisloud ...fyi, there is a way to flash a 6900XT to a compatible 6950XT (read: same basic model by same vendor) in Ubuntu, but it is fiendishly complex in terms of sequential steps. I would only try that with a dual-bios card, though.

...fyi, no down-clocking with the curve setup I use on the 4090, even though NV panel is not set to 'max performance'. I find Geekbench-6 useful to compare same-gen GPUs, but as you know, also use a variety of other benchies...3DM, Unigine Superpos8K, Octanebench, Blender and so forth. Also adding ML benches now re. a work project

...not sure whether clocks are 'unrealistic' per se (my 3090 Strix has been at 2280 or > for all these years). Key is to remember that this bench and its sub-components is meant for cross-platform, so power limited. The peak watts for all my GPUs is low with Geekbench-6, thus they don't heat up internally as much (up to 76.3 Billion transistors on N4 ) and can therefore hit their best levels. FYI, I have used the 3240 MHz curve of the RTX 4090 for Superposition 8K at > 560W so way more peak watts; I probably could add some more clocks for Geekbench-6 ...will test that out next weekend, along with EEC setting. In any case, similar GPU types face the same benefits / limitations with Geekbench-6 so not a skew. --- Regarding the Elmorlabs RTX VRAM heater, I know someone who uses it with a chiller setup and it apparently it works great. But that's also another reason I don't do HWBot anymore - I still like a bit of benching now and then, but then turn around w/o rebooting and do some productivity / work on it, then play some FS2020. Same cooling setup...one-size-fits-all settings, apart from MSI AB clock profiles

...some new RTX peripherals from ElmorLabs could be useful, such as this heater w/a hollow core - still, tricky business with the 2GB GDDR6X chips; I have been lucky with my Giga-G-OC. But to run faster than '+1600' or so like above on VRAM base clock, it needs to be properly warmed up to operating temps.

...really ? ...I was hoping for better road surfaces and less pollution in heaven

Spending eternity at EHW, is that like purgatory ?

...wasn't meant as a serious tease other than responding to @bonami2 re. more recent AMD models' speed restrictions vs. MPT. Besides, the result is obviously posted at Geekbench, ditto for the 6900XT, and the other cards. I also tagged you and @Bastiaan_NL because many HWBotters run these new cards with GDDR6X 2GB chips too cold...that specific VRAM type (unlike its 1 GB cousin) likes at least 55 C to reach its max MHz, yet the VRAM sits much closer to the core than in other models. Said VRAM also cools down very quickly after a second or two at idle. --- This may sound odd, but I actually don't own a smartphone (anymore) - I am already online for too many hours...still Geekbench 6 is cross-platform and also works for Apple iPhone and Android smart phones, as well as tablets etc. It would be great if we can get some Geekbench 6 compute results for those as well

...well, some newer GPUs are alright at > 3.2 giggles ...I wanted to break the 400000 mark, and it actually happened (after hitting 399974, which was a bit annoying as it was so close). Good thing @Bastiaan_NL @Avacado didn't talk me into HWbot (I used to do that...): https://browser.geekbench.com/v6/compute/157609

....congrats @bonami2 how does 'Speedster' translate into French ? --- Meanwhile, back on the farm...I loaded an older MPT-modded vbios profile (clocks lower right) for the 6900XT and gave it some beans. No wonder the 7900XT/X series doesn't allow MPT anymore.

...ahh, I understand. Perhaps there's some log file somewhere on your local Geekbench 6 which could be uploaded once transferred to a USB (ie. 3DM)...I will examine this shortly

...basic tests are free, though

@pioneerisloud ...here is version 6.0.1 ...results are similar, though I bumped VRAM a bit per MSI AB screen with this run

That's a nice run ! I don't think the options are different, just the way I displayed them which included the screen from their main site. The break-out table (below) is at the bottom of the results page which flips up, otherwise I prefer how you showed it with 'upload successfully' and the 'URL' shown. I also noticed that there is a slight version revision (you have 6.0.1, I have 6.0 from yesterday but will download the new one. In the meantime, an updated run for the RTX 4090 for BOTH Open CL and Vulkan side-by-side...same clocks...put a copy up in the OP to replace the earlier one

Hello folks ...this thread looks at the relatively new Geekbench-6 revision, starting with GPU compute results for Open CL and Vulkan; I may add CPU later. I start out with a quick comparative chart and some detail for the RTX 4090; more to follow I hope also from @Bastiaan_NL @Mr. Fox @Sir Beregond @bonami2 and all the other GPU fans here at ExtremeHW - no matter how old the hardware, or what OS you fancy...so smart phones, tablets and all are welcome. Geekbench-6 is after all crossplatform benchmarking. You can download > Geekbench-6 here article snippet from The Verge below... source FYI, I used somewhat different CPU/ mobo/ RAM combos in the colour chart below for my early results. The RTX 4090 represents a big step forward even in 'just' compute. ...RTX 4090 at 3240 MHz; water-cooled; paired with a 5950X and Asus X570 Dark Hero. Open CL on the left, Vulkan on the right

...full plastic shielding + 5 layers of dirt = no rust. But upcoming oil change booked today will mean extra certainty via hoist inspection on my theories of protective layers

...yet another snow storm came and went...per top right pic, good thing I left that protective barrier of dirt in place guarding against the inevitable road salt and brine assaults...
