Igor Wallossek of Igor'sLAB Germany postulated a method by which an AMD Radeon RX 5700 XT "Navi" graphics card can be made to run at clock-speeds of over 2.20 GHz (engine clock), thanks to custom SoftPowerPlay Tables (SPPTs) deployed by modifications to the Windows Registry.

Wallossek's mod involves preparing your Windows Registry with a driver cleaner such as DDU, downloading and applying Registry files for various new power-limit targets you want. The table below details the various power-limit and clock headroom on offer from each kind of registry file. There's also a registry file that cleans up your Windows Registry of any SPPTs, if you decide to roll-back your mod. You can inspect a registry file by opening it in a plaintext viewer such as Notepad. Find links to the SPPT mods, and the Registry Cleanup in the source link below. You can also watch a video presentation by Wallossek in German language here. You make any changes to your machine at your own risk, be sure to have proper custom cooling for your graphics card.

Recently, avid PC hardware leaker @KOMACHI_ENSAKA uncovered what appears to be a Navi 14 GPU result on the CompuBench database, under the ID "AMD 7340:C1" that Komachi identifies as a Navi 14 codename used by AMD. The most important things of note from this benchmark result are the card's compute unit (or CU) count and VRAM capacity: 24 CUs and seemingly 4 GB, respectively.

This seems to be the first time we’ve seen Navi 14 in the wild, and some might wonder what exactly Navi 14 is. We don't have all the answers, but it's rumored to be the smaller counterpart of the Navi 10 GPU that powers the Radeon RX 5700 series. Like how the 5700 series basically replaced the RX Vega 56 and 64, it's possible that Navi 14 will replace Polaris, the underlying architecture for GPUs like the RX 580. Though Navi 14 has far fewer CUs than the 580, it's entirely possible it could be much faster; the 5700XT has 24 fewer CUs than the Vega 64 and is significantly faster, for instance.
