So i have this problem every time with the drivers for a graphics card. I bought and AMD radeon HD 5570 gddr5 1gb graphics card. Went to their site, downloaded their software for autodetecting the driver. It detected the driver downloaded it and installed it. I mostly play league, had a static 120+ fps (according to league, but i had a very old graphics card) anyway, now i have like 60 maybe even less at some point, my screen is flickering sometimes when I'm out of league. I downloaded the HWmonitor, and as far as i'm concerned it's not the heatings problem, checked the mechanical parts of the graphics cards (fan is spinning no visible dust, it's not overheating).
So i'm left with the ever painfull part of finding the right drivers (or that's what i think it is). Any suggestions will be helpfull.
 
my first question is regarding your "purchased" video card, was it new in a box from a store? used on ebay? you purchased it from whom ?

Did you run DDU prior to installing new video card into system ? Download DDU from http://www.guru3d.com/files-details/display-driver-uninstaller-download.html, run it in safe mode, reboot, then redownload and reinstall your driver and see if that solves the issue

Suggestion is run GPU memory Stress test (#1 on this page at bottom of article part) https://www.raymond.cc/blog/having-problems-with-video-card-stress-test-its-memory/

You added the video card on a existing system, would you able to tell me if it was prebuilt? (HP, DELL ETC.) if yes model and system code (on back label of pc), if Not, could you tell us the CPU. Motherboard, Ram make and model, and power supply make model and wattage

What was the previous video card you had in that system?

It was a second hand graphics card, no but i manually uninstalled nvidia drivers and installed the latest drivers from AMD's website. I ran FurMark (recommendation, i was carefull not to overheat my graphics card) and when i dissabled the furry thingy, my fps was back to normal, but when the furry thingy was on, my fps dropped to like 10. I really don't think it's the system's problem since my last graphics card had the same issue, but when i installed and uninstalled drivers a couple of times it fixed itself (not sure how tho)
The previous graphics card is nvidia gt 9600 512mb ddr(i'm not sure was it 3 or 2).
