Hello fellow gamers,

I recently upgraded my GPU to a 7800xt nitro+, but in high FPS situations, like overwatch 2, the card stutters sometimes. Like going from the desired 160fps down to like 80 for a second. In general, the FPS are not stable. Before a match it hovers in the 100s regions. That can’t be right?

I tried setting everything very uncompetitively on ultra or max just for giggles and because I thought I could. 3440x1440p. Is this the dreaded “AMD driver issue”?

CPU: 5600X PSU:750W SSD: 980pro nvme

    It was not a problem with the 1080, albeit with way lower settings. It’s 4x 2666mhz ddr4

      RAM speed typically affects 1% lows, meaning how often frames get dropped. With a better card, the timings might be too slow. This might explain your stuttering.
