GPU underused performance on R9 290 platform
Hey! It seems your GPU has been acting up lately, especially when playing games. In titles like TF2 it still runs smoothly even with built-in graphics, but in games such as Witcher 3 you’re seeing a drop to around 20 FPS. Your GPU isn’t hitting full performance (usually 100%) and the temperature stays low at about 73°C, which is good. The CPU usage is high during Witcher 3 (around 90%), but you don’t notice any issues there. I’ve noticed other games like Fallout 4 also struggle with CPU load (about 40%). There might be something affecting both GPU and CPU performance after your recent changes—like the Windows 10 upgrade, a new graphics driver, or the monitor settings. The power management settings seem adjusted, but it’s worth checking if they’re too restrictive. Let me know if you want help troubleshooting further!
The top approach is to remove the drivers using DDU and then reinstall them.
