On both monitors it was locking 60FPS in Fullscreen, on the main it was doing it in borderless too. For some reason today everything was working normally. No settings changed, reboot shouldn't matter because I already rebootet the PC mulptiple times. Honestly, I'm falling out of love with AMD cards and next time i'll probably be paying a premium for NVidia

System: Ryzen 5600; RX 6800XT; 32GB 3200MHz Since a few days I've noticed my GPU not being fully utilized in Persona 3 R -> From the 120FPS it went to an unplayable state with stutters and frame drops while the GPU was at 5% utilization. Yesterday I wanted to play Valorant and noticed my game was capped at 60 FPS in game (I've been playing this game almost every day with no issues until now). Thought okay might be the AMD driver,, so I installed the old drivers with hopes of a fix -> no such luck. I check my windows setting for my refreshrate, AMD global display settings, power options etc. Then i swapped the game from my main monitor to the secondary one (They are the same monitor Acer Nitro XV272U 144Hz WQHD) and the game is running like normal, which makes me even more confused than before. On top of that if the game is in fullscreen it locks the fps at 60 again. I tried to look at every possible display setting on windows and nowhere does it say the refreshrate is capped. pls help... UPDATE: Turning AMD Freesync off in the software doesn not mean its off, I turned it off from the monito and the FPS went up to 120. Cool right? Wrong! With VSync on I'm locked at 120. With VSync off I'm locked at 60??? This means something is making my monitor go Haywire, would old age play a factor in this?

Recently I reinstalled GTA V from Epic. Sadly I haven't been able to play it because of it not starting. When the game is launched, at the most, you'll hear the first 1-2 seconds of the sirens and then the game immidietly closes. There is no crash report or an alert saying the game has crashed. I run a RX 6800 XT and Ryzen 5600. Last time I played the game was on a 1070 ti and it didnt have any such issues. It was crashing on Radeon driver version 23.x.x and now after I updated to 24.1.1 I was hoping it would be fixed but it hasn't bee. I am starting to think it's an issue with AMD cards becasue I also could not run Monster Hunter Rise, which crashes on startup, and F1 22 which crashes when you take control of the car. I would love to not have to go back to NVidia cards because they cost an arm and a leg if I want the same theoretical performance. One thing i noticed while GTA V was trying to launch is that it was launching in 1080p while my monitor is 1440p.

Hey y'all, I'm at my wits end with this, have been trying out different "solutions" for a day now and nothing is working. Drivers are updated, W10 is updated, closed all unnecessary programs, verified games files, uninstalled the game twice. The moment I start the game it goes into the crash report tool and that's it, black window. Wanted to play it with my GF during the weekend but that's basically over already. Her MH starts just fine (also through Game Pass). If anyone could help I would be very grateful.

No way that is a real thing...

Hey guys, help your boy out here. I remember you being able to add stops on GM and the internet proves me right because when i search how it tells me the way it (used to be). But I don't see it anymore. If it helps i have a Pixel 6 Pro.

If you're still curious, its a MSI B450 Gaming Pro Carbon AC

I knew it was a bit all over the place but just wanted to share my struggle xd

Hey guys, as the title would suggest, I am now scared of PCIe lanes. Never in my life have I had to deal with something like this until recently. So, as far as I understand, a Ryzen 5 2600 has 20 PCIe lanes. 16 of those would go to the GPU which leaves 4. A M.2 NVMe takes all of those 4 which leaves me with 0, correct? I learned that the hard way when I bough myself an expansion M.2 SSD (already had 2 SATA SSDs and a HDD) and suddenly 1 of my SSDs was gone from the system. This doesn't makes sense to me though, because as far as I read, SATA SSDs take up 1 lane (?), which should mean that with 0 lanes left after the GPU and M.2, none of my older SSDs should be recognized. I have already given up on M.2 in my system and am rocking good old SATA and I am very happy with the performance. I am though thinking of putting a 1TB M.2 SSD with a HDD in my GFs sisters new computer. I am giving her my Ryzen 2600, the question would be, can I expand with another SSD down the line if it's needed, or is that the limit I have with that setup?

Was thinking the same, had to double check though, because if the cache was different, yikes, there would have been pitchforks on release.

I just know myself and I will miss something obvious that has to be removed like GForce EXP and yeah, I don't think AMD would like that. I just remember when it was W7 vs 10 there were stability issues and performance losses, then it turned into gains. So if there isn't anything significantly important to gaming and casual usage, I'll go the boomer route and stick with what I am already accustomed to. Also, wasn't the taskbar locked on W11, big nono

Hey peeps, So I am planning to upgrade my current system and here is how it looks: CPU: Ryzen 5 2600 OC to 4.1 GHz --> Ryzen 5600 Cooler: Recently changed from a CM 240 AIO to CM MasterAir MA624 (feels like a big upgrade) MB: MSI B450 Gaming Carbon RAM: G.Skill Ripjaws V 2x8GB 3200MHz --> + 2x8GB GPU: Zotac Mini 1070 Ti --> RX 6750 XT PSU: Seasonic 650W Gold Monitor: Acer XV2 1440p 120Hz IPS I have a few questions about this: Is it a big issue upgrading to a CPU and GPU capable of PCIe.4 with an older MB (in terms of performance "loss"). I have been avoiding newer MBs aka 500 series since they look way too overpriced and I like my current one. When doing this kind of upgrade, how is the smartest way of dealing with all of the old software junk? Is it just better to clean install Windows and wipe my drives (after saving everything important ofc). On the topic of fresh Windows install, should I continue with W10 or is upgrading to W11 just better at this point. BIOS. Even though I like the MB itself, the BIOS have given me more than one headache. Is ver. 7B85v1C of the MSI BIOS compatible with Ryzen 5000 or do I need 7B85v1G. The reason I am asking this is because I already tried updating to this newer BIOS but it changes Secure Boot settings and I remember being able to find the settings in the BIOS options and thus not being able to boot into Windows. As to what happens to my old parts: GPU is upgrading my GFs GTX 980 Since she has a Ryzen 3600, CPU and aforementioned 980 are being saved for her younger sister because poor thing is still gaming on a laptop. If there is anything else important I forgot I would love to know. Thank you for the help in advance.

Hey man, literally was just dealing with this issue for the past 2 hours myself. Well... Maybe not exactly the same because I could go into the bios, but anyways, very similar after updating the bios on my MSI board. So, idk if this will/can help you, but just try the older BIOS version (pretty sure you MB has a BIOS flash button), my PC booted without problems. The newest drivers change the setting of Secure Boot and that could be the issue.
