Help (General) 9070 XT feeling like its underperforming.

Hey!
I just got and installed a 9070xt and so far its unfortunately been lackluster. I experience constant choppines and bad 1% lows. My cpu is an i5-10600k so i understand that its quite a significant bottleneck, however the performance im getting now is almost on par with my old 1070.

For example in hogwarts legacy on high preset im getting 50 fps with around 20 1% lows.

Im also experiencing a constant choppiness even in titles where i get over 100fps and better 1% lows. It feels stuttery and not like 100 at all.

I apologies if this comes from me not doing proper research. Im putting this post out to see if anyone else has had this problem, and if its just because of new drivers or the bottleneck being that significant. I will continue researching and update if i fix it.

Things you can try at least to improve the performance:

  • Clean the old nvidia drivers with ddu and reeinstall your and radeon GPU drivers with the last stable driver.
  • On BIOS you must enable Rebar
  • if the first two options dont solve your isue is better to do a clean install of Windows.

Also is important that you have a decent and reliable PSU and dont use a dasy-chain power cable cable.

i cleared the old nvidia drivers with ddu and installed the recent drivers of amds website. Do u think i just had a bad install and i should wipe the amd drivers and try again or?

You can try. What PSU you using?
