My new GPU that i got (Sapphire RX 460 2GB GGDR5) is always on 100% load even when idle?
but the temp and fan speed is correct temp goes from 50c idle to 70c when gaming and fan speed goes from 24% to 50%. BUT why is the load always 100%?

PS: Card is brand new also im using the new 16.11.5 driver

I GOT IT. its the damned non whql 16.11.5 beta driver from amd that i accidently downloaded and installed instead of the whql one which is 16.9.2 now everything is hunky dorky. idle temp is now 35-37c and gpu load is 0% on idle as it should be.
