Just to have it said, I think it's cool that Hilbert and folks post a major review between the holidays. Kudos.

Happy owner of a Sapphire Nitro+ RX 6800 here, though it's a placeholder card for me as I'm keen to get an RX 6900 XT (given up on the RX 6800 XT as it's damn near impossible to find one, unless the stars happen to align themselves in your favor....plus Divine intervention from the Almighty.
My card runs rather cool because I've always turned off 'Zero Fan' and enable an agressive fan curve. The card, or rather, the fans aren't loud even with the fan curve I'd set, but then again, I'm more about cooling the card under load than a fan of silent rigs.
And before you guys tease me about the RGB's, let me remind you that it's a scientific fact that RGB not only improve clock and memory OC's, it helps cool down the card much more efficiently.....and.....and it promotes world peace!:p

You can tune fan cruve a bit , lose 2-3C max achive similar results. , still id say it is fail a bit , not beating reference desing by larger margin .
