I built a new gaming PC that I also use for photoshop and a LITTLE bit of Premiere. I bought an XFX RX 580 Black Edition, since it was 190 USD on Amazon. Seemed like an amazing deal. Also, somewhere on this forum is a list of the best coolers for graphics cards and it said that the GTS cooler for XFX cards is in the second best tier. Currently, my specs are:

Ryzen 5 2600x stock cooler

Corsair Vengeance Rgb Pro 16gb 3200mhz 

MSI B450 Gaming Pro Carbon AC 

Bitfenix Formula Gold 650W 

(Tell me if there is anything I missed)

Cooler Master Masterbox MB500 and the three stock fans in it, two intakes one exhaust. 

 

My problem is that when ever I get my GPU to 100% usage, it doesn't ever come down from 100% and it really heats up everything in the case. I'm getting 80°C even when I'm on the desktop with nothing open, after running a game or something. If I cant fix this stupid 100% usage problem, how can I better cool my system? And by the way, apparently Radeon ReLive might have something to do with 100% usage, burning not sure. I found that on an obscure forum deep in the interwebs and I can't find it anymore.

Is there a way that I can get the Adrenaline drivers and Radeon software without also getting ReLive along with it?
