Start by downloading the latest (non-Beta) drivers for your Graphics Card from AMD's website.

Uninstall old drivers by going to Control Panel > System > Device Manager > Display Adapters > Right Click on the Graphics Card > Select 'Properties' > Select ' Drivers' Tab > Select 'Uninstall'. Reboot your computer and install the newly downloaded drivers.

Ensuring your drivers are up-to-date and compatible with the hardware concerned is the first point to consider when experiencing graphical errors or lack of display.

If, with the latest (non-Beta) drivers, the problem persists then ensure your Graphics Card's GPU isn't overheating.

80c is somewhat high for a GPU to run at.

Download MSI-Afterburner and use it to increase your GPU's fan speed to lower the temperature.

You may also want to point some case fans directly at the Graphics Card and consider an after-market cooling solution if you are confident with working directly on your GPU.

Otherwise, the simplest method, as you suggested yourself, is to lower your game settings slightly.
