RX 480 Issues with certain games

[Wummeh]

Hello, I recently got a RX 480 for christmas. After using it in counter strike, tomb raider, and various games it worked very good. Although, when I went into minecraft, I got horrible frame rates (30-50FPS). I don't play minecraft, although I work as a java developer, so it is crucial for debugging. The RX 480 variant I have is the "MSI Armor 4G". Hopefully someone has an idea as to why this is happening.

Minecraft is clearly a more graphically intensive game than the other 2 games XD. But on a serious note it could be the game has a bug. Have you tried reinstalling the game?

I've reinstalled the game and it still is having issues.

Your Minecraft performance will depend more on your CPU.

Did you uninstall the old drivers using DDU? if you did try an older version of the driver, the one before the latest to start with. Also when using DDU, make sure to use the safe mode option and don't let windows install the display drivers before you do. Good Luck.

Prior to this GPU, I had a 750ti and that performed MUCH better despite being a worse card.

[Wummeh]

Yes, I have uninstalled my old drivers.

Actually, from what I've seen. The only game I've been getting decent performance in is Doom and a couple others. When I try to play Wolfenstein The New Order, It crashes constantly and can't even play max settings.
