Recently with games like the Witcher 3, Rainbow Six Siege, and Battlefield 4 I've been getting much lower than usual FPS. I usually get at least 80 fps in Battlefield at 1440p with a few settings turned down, but now I'm usually at around 40. Same goes for the Witcher (around a 20 fps drop) and in Rainbow Six I get an constant, annoying stutter.
I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling drivers twice using the AMD clean uninstall tool, but there have been no improvements. I also tried to change some settings like tesselation in the Crimson software. I get a slight boost by turning off tesselation (maybe 5 fps). Changing the resolution to 1080p and adjusting video settings don't have much of an effect either, maybe 10-20, and my FPS is still lower than before.
My GPU usage is at 100% and my CPU usage is around 70%. The temperatures are fine as well. I've seen that some people have issues with their GPU dropping to 0% usage, but mine stays above 90%.
These are my current specs:
i5 2500k
MSI R9 390x
Asus P8z77-vlk
8 gb ram
Evga 750w Gold psu
Samsung 850 Evo 250gb SSD
Windows 10
I received the card from MSI a few months ago after RMAing my old 290, so I'm not entirely sure if the card is brand new or refurbished. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
