I just got an RX 6600 from second hand market and wanted to test it just to be sure. There was a Furmark screenshot on the seller’s pictures which is tested on Windows.
However when I did the Furmark test’s Linux version, while it was mostly similar, my memory clock shown as 875 MHz. It was 1750 MHz on seller’s test. I don’t know technical part behind this but this is a x2 difference I noticed. Also it was 14 Gbps on Windows while mine was 3.5 Gbps, the difference is x4 here.
There is probably a measurement difference between Windows and Linux drivers here, but like I said I don’t know the technical details behind these tests.
So, is this the same / different measurement or should I be worried about this card?
The memory clock might be measured differently — base clock speed vs “effective” memory clock. Anyway my 6600 running Furmark also says 875 and does about 92 fps without trying to optimize anything.
I see. So nothing to worry about I guess. Thanks.
