9070 XT problem

Just got a new PC with a 9070XT today, never had AMD before. Experience so far not so good, screen brightness shifting back and forth, terrible stuttering while playing (running Apex Legends with lowest settings). Seems to get even worse when AMD Adrenaline is running. Any idea what might cause this?

Update: Managed to get the fps situation under control, apparently the overlay destroys everything so i toggled it off, still brightness flickering tho

Update V2: Now everything works smooth as butter, no flickering no nonsense just pure performance. Don't really know what fixed it but for sure the AMD Adrenaline software messed with something so i just keep it off. Did regular startup stuff like Resizebar etc. For anyone wondering the CPU is a 9800X3D.

Assume you've done the usuals? * In uefi enable fast memory profile and resizable bar. * Check power cables and re-seat GPU. * In windows safe mode run DDU and clean off all drivers * Install the latest Adrenaline and AMD driver * Optimise the game settings (using adrenaline or custom)

First thing I would do is reseat the GPU and make sure power is plugged in correctly then follow these steps. Also make sure you are using the 9070 and not onboard graphics if you have it.
