Hi guys, my first post here so please excuse the noob.
I've been experiencing a problem with my RX470 lately. I noticed this issue a while back while playing SOTTR, there was constant frame drops making it unplayable so I thought perhaps it was just that game, uninstalled and moved on.
I've been playing a lot of COD MW recently and every now and then I'll load up into multiplayer and it would stutter. Relaunching the game normally fixed this.
Now it's constant, I'm not sure if a Windows update caused this or what. I've done multiple driver updates/reinstalled using DDU in safe mode etc. I can't seem to fix this issue, I don't know if it's hardware or software related at this point.
The GPU usage is constantly fluctuating, as well as clock speed, temperature and fan speed. I have attached some screenshots from msi afterburner
All games stutter now, there's constant frame drops every half a second and it stays like this.
One thing I did try was running COD MW at half the resolution and all settings on low, it ran perfectly fine at constant 75FPS(my freesync monitor refresh rate)
What else can I do to try fix this? Please help, it's super annoying. If there's any other programs I can use to give you guys more info, please comment.
