Hello fellow gamers,

I recently upgraded my GPU to a 7800xt nitro+, but in high FPS situations, like overwatch 2, the card stutters sometimes. Like going from the desired 160fps down to like 80 for a second. In general, the FPS are not stable. Before a match it hovers in the 100s regions. That can’t be right?

I tried setting everything very uncompetitively on ultra or max just for giggles and because I thought I could. 3440x1440p. Is this the dreaded “AMD driver issue”?

CPU: 5600X PSU:750W SSD: 980pro nvme

    If you’re running an app like hardware monitor it can help chase it down. If you see a spike or drop in something for example.

      I was using an overlay while gaming for CPU and GPU numbers. Temps are fine, usage ~60 for CPU, 80 for GPU. I can’t find the culprit, maybe I need to monitor/log the clock voltages?
