Low Draw Distance in all video games for no reason at all.

So I got a new gpu (r7 250x msi 2gb gddr5) and installed it. The rig ran fine for a day or so. However, now it seems that the draw distance is universally lowered for all games. . I tested it on dayz, The Witcher 3, and batman arkham knight. 3 in Witcher 3 it seems that shadows only 20 feet away can't be seen until you are next to it, same with some NPCs. ( i saw a ship on docks when i came back it disappeared :|) I updated the drivers on my GPU recently as well but I rolled them back to see if that may have been an issue. However the same problem presented as before. Also, if it did not seem obvious, I have never had this happen since I got the new graphics card. I also went back to reset all the settings on the AMD Control Panel and that did nothing.
Something that makes the game unplayable is that in gta v ( i forgot to mention that the problem is more noticeable in this game than the others) i have texture pop ins when i drive fast textures disappears! its 30 days iam working on this but nothing rma.ing my gpu is the last option cuz it takes 30 days to send a new one
then plz help!
Thanks,

PC Specs:
R7 250X 2GB GDDR5
cpu: intel g2030 3ghz ( don't say its bottlenecking my gpu cuz all of these ran fine on this gpu and the older one ( gt 520)( except witcher 3 i wasn't taking appropriate fps so i changed my gpu)
ram 8gb

Has anyone tried swapping out their MOBO and/or CPU and posted results? I know this is much more work, but with the numerous threads online...I have seen people try everything from swapping GPUs, RAM, swapping drives (HDD to SDD vice versa), reinstalling a variety of drivers, reinstalling games, windows and numerous other things with no luck. The main items I have not seen tested with results is swapping out of CPUs and/or MOBO.
