So, I recently built a PC with an RX 5600 XT, and an Intel core i5 9400. On occasion, (usually every 30 minutes to an hour) I get MASSIVE frame drops, A and I ain't talking about a bit of lag here and there, I'm talking a steady 60 FPS (I have a 60 Hz monitor so that's the maximum for me) straight down to 5-10 FPS. And this doesn't just happen in games, it happens literally anywhere I use my computer. It even happens in my browser. If anyone knows the root of the problem and how to fix it, I'd be happy.

Have you thought to try Firefox?

I havent tried watching an mp4 file yet, but I predict the same thing will happen.

Well, I mentioned YouTube specifically because I haven't been watching videos anywhere else.

So, I just built my new PC with an Intel i5 9400, and a Radeon RX 5600 XT. I want to watch some YouTube videos (Ex: Linus Tech Tips). IT CRASHES, with an error titled: VIDEO_TDR_FAILURE. It crashes at weird times. EXAMPLE: A video is playing and I decide I want to check my subscriptions to see if any recent videos hit my subscription box, as soon as I click those three lines, it crashes, this also includes ANY part of the YouTube website WHILE a video is playing. EX: comments, search bar, pause button, etc. I have tried many solutions to the problem, none worked, PLEASE HELP. Edit: I forgot to mention I have tried a lot of solutions. Uninstalling and re-installing drivers with Amd's clean up utility to remove all drivers, then re-installing them, extracting the file, and installing just the drivers and not AMD's adrenaline software. I have also tried stuff with the command prompt, reg files, and other stuff that just didn't work.
