Same with x800pro vivos.

I'm sure you'll notice the extra 1.5 fps.
Now, bump that gpu Vcore up a notch or two and water has its chance to shine. Heat output goes up much faster with increasing voltage than clock speed.

Some of the pro VIVOs that have 4 pipes disabled were XT cores that didnt meet thermal spec, hence why they had 4 pipes disabled and downclocked. So why not go overboard and watercool it if you want to OC it to only XT speeds?
