As for overclocking, I have to say manually tuning the Evoke OC proved the easiest of all the Navi cards we have tested so far – we could max out the core frequency at 2150MHz (the highest allowed by Wattman), and our GDDR6 memory also maxed out at 950MHz (15.2Gbps). This was with the power limit set to its maximum, using the auto fan curve.

Average clock speed under load

This overclock raised the card's average frequency under load by 105MHz, an increase of 5.4%.

Games

This extra frequency scaled perfectly with our extra games testing, where we saw an average performance uplift of 5%. This puts the manually-tuned Evoke OC almost 9% ahead of the stock RX 5700 XT.
