Omg I feel stupid now. The tutorial I followed might be older, so they probably changed the way it works since then. Thanks!

Okay I feel really dumb but I fixed it.
 
I apparently installed experimental drivers by manually updating.
 
When I updated my drivers it simply said "new version available" so I installed them.
I don't know why I didn't try this earlier but I used AMD cleaner tool to remove the drivers and then reinstalled them.
There it said "Recommended 20.4.something" and "optional 20.7.2" which was the one I updated to.
So I installed the 20.4 and now it's fixed...

It boots as fast as ever again.

*sad noises*
 
Okay, different question then: within my € 350 budget, what do you recommend? RX 5700 and flash that to the XT bios?
If ray tracing is not an option at this price point, than maybe that is a better option?
 
Edit: thanks for all your help btw, I appreciate it!

I have the "Gigabyte GeForce RTX 2060 Gaming OC Pro 6G (rev. 1.0)" , it has served me well and it overclocks nicely, although I am already looking to upgrade because it is very hard for any 2060 to handle RTX at a reasonable FPS. It is a very good card though, I have had no issues. Quiet fans, but powerful if you want to keep temperatures cool. I don't have experience with any of the other cards but I can speak for this one. \
 
The TUF one also looks really good. I plan on getting a TUF monitor so the card has to be good, right?

Yes, you are at 30fps.

Check Control 1080p results with RTX on and DLSS 2.0.

If your dead set on a 2060 ( even tho these features are kind of useless and a 2060 won't be good with ray tracing )
Check the GPU tier list for which model suits you

I actually already have that cooler, forgot to mention that. Thanks for your advice :)
