Here we present the average clock speed for each graphics card while running Cyberpunk 2077 for 30 minutes. We use GPU-Z to record the GPU core frequency during gameplay. We calculate the average core frequency during the 30 minute run to present here.

Moving onto our technical tests, one area of note for the RX 6500 XT is its very high clock speeds. The Gigabyte RX 6500 XT Eagle that we tested did very well here, offering incredibly stable clock speeds – it averaged 2878MHz over our 30-minute stress test, with absolutely minimal fluctuation in frequency, as can be seen above.
