Nope, running at stock clocks of the card.  Not only is it not overclocked it is water cooled by two radiators with six 120mm fans.  I did overclock the GPU RAM and ran the power budget up an extra 15% and ran multiple tests on the card and could not get it to fail.  I then put everything back to stock as my goal is a quiet and stable system.  I also cap frame rates to 100Hz in the driver so it doesn't burn too much power.  I figure if it is stable overclocked it should be even more stable at stock.  The CPU is stock frequency and voltage.  I ran an extensive Windows system RAM test that took like 24 hours to complete with no errors.  

The GPU came with a water block installed, so I did not disassemble the card and put it on myself.

If I do not run the textures and fidelity on high (I run medium) the game never crashes.  So it does seem to just be running out of memory because of some weird bug.  

I realize I bought this from you guys back in 2009 but it is fun to play every now and then.   

I've also ran across this recently, around the 22.5.1 and 22.5.2 drivers with a 5700XT. Earlier this year with old drivers worked fine. I was already set to Custom with everything else on high (I think AA was 2 or 4 and not 8, but can't remember.) But to follow the spirit of your suggestion Rhonin, I set the Preset to Medium, then upped everything else to the highest except AA which is at 4. I've played 1 game so far, and that has had no issues. Before it would crash within seconds. GPU memory usage according to Task Manager was very low.

Edit: a number of crashes with the same error. Switched Fidelity and Textures to medium and good so far.

Edit2: nevermind, same kind of crashes.

Yes, continues to crash for me if pushed too far regardless of settings.   I wonder if the AMD drivers are allocating an artificially set low amount of memory?  

But if I keep the settings down it is fine.  I just added a second card to my system, an Intel A380, I could disable my 6900XT and see what happens.  I have two cards because I use the A380 for decoding/encoding in Davinci Resolve 18 and the 6900XT for OpenCL work. 

Which version of Windows? I actually wonder that of everyone in this discussion.  I am unsure if my transition to Windows 11 or the 6900XT caused the issue because both happened at the same time.

I'm having this problem with Win 11 on intel integrated graphics.
