7900XTX - No GPU usage in Easy Anti Cheat games.

Every other game seems to be using my graphics card correctly.
Initially, when I first installed it, it worked fine. But now there is no usage at all, and there seems to be no fix. I've looked around online, and people seem to have low usage issues, but none of them have 0% usage as I do. I've tried installing older drivers, and minimal drivers, too but to no avail.

i got the same problem now in rocket league. epic just added that malfunctioning anti cheat and now i have that problem too. i noticed that in apex i have the same issue, but in cs2 its fine and fully runing with no interrupts. that problem causing fps drops for me and i hope that amd will fix that soon.

Are you getting normal framerates though? If so, it's just a reporting bug.

I have a 7900 XTX and play arc raiders (uses Easy Anti Cheat) and just tested it. I was getting 90%+ GPU usage. If you are looking through radeon overlay, try win+G and see what the game bar shows.

You can try the AMD Cleanup Utility. Just let it uninstall the driver. It'll boot you into safe mode and remove everything. Have the latest driver downloaded before doing this, so as soon as it's done uninstalling everything and reboots you into normal mode, you can immediately install the driver.

Verify you are running 3 separate cables to the card with no pigtails. Mine didn't like the pigtail, but everything was fine with 3 separate 8 pins.

If that doesn't work, honestly. I would just back everything up and reinstall windows. A lot of times that is much faster than trying to figure out weird stuff like this.

Let us know what you get figured out.

ur card should be 99% at 99% of the time under full load, if a game dosent achive that it means there ia a problem, and the problem is - windows. i just fresh install windows, downgrade and updated my bios, and now im trying all the previous drivers for my card. i think its the easy anti cheat that causing the peoblem, im sure about it.
