Hi guys! Since last night i noticed that my xfx 6800xt jumps to 1900mhz clock while watching youtube videos or randomly videos on pc! I have 2 monitors acer @1080p 75hz... tried to lower the hz but doesnt help... tried to turn off one monitor and that doesnt help..the card is undervolted to 985mv! Stock settings same problem happens! Thanks
 
Do you have VRR on?
Monitors support lowering Hz when you dont need high refresh rate?

This is with DisplayPort if that makes any difference.

This shouldnt really be a problem. Card boost its vram clock to 1900mhz when it needs to. 1900Mhz is default max clock of that card so no problem there. Youtube videos use your GPU power (if hardware acceleration is on which is default) so it can boost your card. Undervolt doesnt effect it and vram isnt really a big power problem so you shouldnt really worry about it.
Is there another problem like heat or power? Otherwise, that's completely normal.
 
the main problem that the card goes to 55c and the fans starts then... both monitors are connected via DP and vrr are enabled for both monitors! the thing is that in last few days i didnt noticed that the fans starts after watching videos! the power consumption while watching videos is 25-26w
