Radeon RX 6700 XT seems very clock frequency friendly - Could Match 3060 Ti level perf
AMD is still very busy announcing, releasing, and apparently still fabbing 6800/6900 Series GPUs. Meanwhile, BIOS files for the RX 6700 have surfaced, and an analysis shows that they could be designed to clock really high on the boost frequency.
According to reports, it would have 40 compute units (x64 = 2560 Shader procs), a third less than the Radeon RX 6800, however, based on RDNA2 with likely some L3 cache as well. Leaked first BIOSes suggest that the GPUs are very clock-friendly. Maybe even more so than the Radeon RX 6800 (XT). A check with morepower tool, shows a possible 2,950 MHz as GFX clock, it is a theoretical maximum value. E.g. the Radeon RX 6800 XT could go up to 2,800 MHz but these are hovering in the 2400 Mhz domain, sometimes 200~300 MHz when overclocked.
A second finding is the assigned TGPs. In the alleged budget model, which is possibly quite close to the reference, that is 186 watts - which is 92 percent of the TGP of a Radeon RX 6800 at 203 watts for the reference model. Radeon RX 6800 has 33 percent fewer shader processors and 12 instead of 16 GB memory. So based on that analysis, it seems that RX 6700 is going to rely heavily on high clock frequencies in regards to performance in order to match or beat the RTX 3060 Ti.
Radeon RX 6700 XT is expected to launch Q1 next year.
Radeon RX 6800 (XT) availability issues - Proshop Shares Numbers - 11/30/2020 09:29 AM
The availability of the Radeon RX 6800 (XT) is poor, last week we already mentioned that a Dutch etailer doesn't expect the availability of AIB cards later into Q1 2021. We now also have some more nu...
AMD Radeon RX 6900 XT = capable of going for a 3 GHz OC? - 11/30/2020 09:03 AM
It's a bit of a gable, overclocking. Sometimes you have average results, other times you're in luck. The ASUS 6800 XT LC review for example shows that we can hit 2700 MHz on that GPU clock. But the ...

Exactly! How did the OP get to this conclusion is beyond me...
It's clear that AMD with the RX 6800 is positioned well above RTX 3070 (in rasterization, excluding RT/DLSS, because they will bring those on par or close enough in a few months when they improve the software), so it would not make any sense to leave open such a huge gap downwards to 3060Ti.
The RX 6700XT will match the RTX 3070 and the RX 6700 will match the RTX 3060 Ti, again in rasterization. Or even exceed them with the great OC performance while offering 12GB Vram vs 8GB Vram from nvidia.
So the title and the opinion is wrong. RX 6800 will match the RTX 3060 Ti.
Everyone are under Nv contracts,so expect everything if everyone is under contract.
3060 Ti proved it beats the 6800 in pure RT and then when you add in DLSS it's not even close.
Ermm...ermmm..ofc in every RT game - made it by Nv RT every opponent card are beaten by new RTX cards.Simple.

Every RT workload*
How do you explain Microsoft RT demos? 3DMark that's supposed to be neutral? Unreal Engine's proprietary DXR implementation made for AMD consoles? The various renderers apps out there that aren't running OptiX?
What's more likely, that Nvidia just has literally everyone under some insane contract that forces these companies to make RT faster on their cards.. or the two years of hardware RT research they have + larger budget + plus an architecture that we know dedicates more transistors to RT, happens to be faster? I think it's the latter.

@Denial
Hold on:
IF you do not present what Nv wants (like it is in the contract) or You,as reviewer etc,do criticize Nv sometimes very much,then You are not eligible to have Our newer video cards.(see HWU case before Turing launch)
So,about RT: Every game from 2019-2020 have included Nv their secret sauce of RT (tm) implementation,which sometimes cripple their somehow "older" cards.
DXR is a DX12 thing made it with MS,Nv,Amd,Intel,etc. RT&RTX is a thing from Nv.

problem for AMD is that sales for the 3060ti starts just NOW
they will come out 2 months later
