I am thinking along this line as well.
Note, this is my test/burn in bench, but here are the full settings if they are of interest or any value:
fwiw: I am setting this up to test the TeamRedMiner benchmarking function 
MINERS
TeamRedMiner v0.8.7
Best wishes and “easy mining returns” to you in the New Year!
I generally keep my SOC settings to 900 on the RX 6800, the 6800 XT’s get 950.
However, I have not updated to the latest kernel and I am still on 0.6-210@211010 with the manual startup script.
Can you share the oc please !?
Testing with my gaming computer and indeed SOC is the value that changes F State:
SOC field empty:
SOC at 960:
SOC at 900:
SOC at 860:
So somewhere between SOC 960 and 900 it changes F State to 1551.
Still need more testing, but for now I’m happy to have found the cause.
And it doesn’t seem to influence hashrate; it stayed stable through the different SOCs.
But Wattage got much lower with lower SOC!
Thank you for your efforts and for sharing your results 
Time to join with my ultra power saving 6800xt configuration:
hope this may inspire ppl who are stucked to high power consumption
@Mr_Oraculus try checking this, i warn you, you have to play A LOT with SOC VDDmax and memory clock
I have been surprisingly happy with my new MSI’s as well.
which miner?
If you previously had 63,5 then try to play around memory clock, increasing. My 6800xt (reference) does not gain any mh increasing memory clock but i think you can still play around it
I think MSI version detect power consumption in a different way from reference edition, i’d say you are pretty same as 100w of AMD cards
About the 1660s i suggest you to remove power limit, i’ve 1 also and i’m 36+ mh thanks to high memory clock and no PL. You are at 2300 but i’m sure you can easy hit 2500-2600 mhz. (don’t worry about gpu fan error, it’s expected)
I have checked real power consumption with watt-meter plug, i can say that hiveos is fairly accurate. Also as you see my temperatures and fans speeds are very low which also means that cards actually using so low amount of power. My mh/s vary +/- 1mh depends on what TRM tuning settings are used. And gtx1660 is using 80W regardless of my PL so it is not really doing anything, i was fiddling around memory speeds but it was giving some rejects which in reality meant that hashrate was lower than reported.
These are my temps after they settled:
I also checked with watt meter the difference between reported and the wall, and it accurate because of the psu efficency.
Btw, if “your problem” is the TRM tuning value you can fix it using eth_config parameter like so:
--eth_config=B640,B300,A1056,A576
Those are mine, and the A1056 is the one is used on m 6800xt, it helps to keep more things unchanged from a stable oc
Hello, thank you for sharing. Could you show more details on the Gigabyte 6800 XT. I’m curious what the Memory Controller Voltage (mV) is set to?
I assume the 655 value is the Core Voltage (mV), and that 1255 is the Memory Voltage (mV)?
Also, do you have any values in SoC Frequency or VDDmax?
Core voltage: 655
Memory voltage:1255
Soc Freq:805
VDDmax:950
thanks for sharing, but your settings crash my card and rig. Have you changed the bios or done something to achieve those settings?
