Low fps problem after installing new GPU

[Chroma.MONKE]

So i just installed a new graphics card. An AMD Radeon Rx 6700 XT, my old one was an RTX 1070 which was 5 years old. My goal was to run games like Ark Survival Evolved and Squad more smoothly however that hasn't happened. I get the same fps as i did with my old GPU. In Ark with everything on medium and 2560x1440 i still get around 40-50 fps and in squad with the same settings i still get 40-70 fps. I have tried validating files on steam and even reinstalling the games.

My other specs are:

TUF Gaming B450m-plus motherboard (2 years old)

Gigabyte P750GM Psu (8 months old)

Corsair 16Gb Ram 3200Mhz (2 and a half years old)

AMD Ryzen 5 3600, 6 Core, 12 Thread Processor (2 years old)

I have the latest driver and my 144hz monitor is directly plugged into my gpu

If anyone could help i would highly appreciate it

Did you use DDU to remove the GeForce drivers?

 

RAM is running at 3200 or still at native speed without DOCP enabled?

 

Are you sure you want to keep using the PSU and risk your new GPU?

I didn't use DDU to remove them no.
I didn't know that stuff about gigabytes PSU so might buy a new one soon.
And im sorry but i don't know a lot about PC's apart from the very basics so i have no idea what you mean about DOCP

DDU can remove the bits of drivers that are left over from uninstalling. Uninstalling drivers doesn't remove everything. Bits of the Nvidia drivers can be conflicting with the AMD ones.

Restart your computer in safe mode and then run DDU to remove drivers.

DOCP is AMDs name for XMP. It's a bios setting that will get your ram to run at 3200 mhz instead of 2666

So i used DDU to remove the old drivers completely and i turned on DOCP for my ram but nothing changed. I still get 40-50 in ark and 60-70 in squad

Try lowering the graphical values for the games just to check if the framerates per second change. If they do then everything's working still fine. Theoretically, they should be higher.

Make sure to set in the BIOS the random access memory frequency to 3200Mhz. You can manual set it to that value. You don't need to enable DOCP since the processor is designed to operate with that speed by default. One last thing, is your CPU overclocked? If so, make sure you have sufficient power settings assigned in the BIOS.

I tried that when i first found the problem. I didn't work

Lowering the graphical values doesn't work as well? Not even 5 frames per second faster? I never heard of an issue like that before. It's hard to say what the problem could be at this point.

Go into bios and see if the CPU is not under clocking it self somehow. Install the latest chipset drivers from your MB site.

 

Am not familiar with the 3600x but try to manually set the multiplier to a higher value, or lock the MhZ with ryzen master to a static value and see if that makes a difference.

 

I also would test with some benchtest programs like pcmark or heaven.

 

Lastly, would buy and switch to a new safe PSU as soon as I can.

So changing the graphics didn't work but changing the Res did. From 2550x1440 to 1920 1080 gave me 20 more fps

I'll try that. I am looking currently looking for a new PSU
