I have an AMD Radeon 9600x and 48GB 6400mhz ram with an Overclocked 9070Pure.
Before i had a 2080TI
Now i have the following Problem.
My card is set to draw 270w.
It does so in Remnant2, SpaceMarine2 and Nomad Benchmark.
However in DarkTide only in Menue it draws 270w…
As soon as i go ingame it only draws 90w and Performance is terrible.
So far i have disabled SMT and tried to Disable RayTracing in the config.
Nothing worked.
I can only play on medium settings to get above 100fps
There is clearly something wrong with the game.
My old GTX 2080TI in the very same setup (i only changed the GPU) did draw 245w and performed better than the 9070
Try closing after burner entirely and see if you get better performance.
If it helps, Open MSI afterburner’s settings, go to the Monitoring tab, and uncheck every metric you’re not displaying and see if that helps.
Some people, myself included, have had issues with the default settings for msi afterburner tanking performance due to it trying to collect some power settings enabled by default even if they are not being displayed.
I think I have bought AMD during… 25 years.
I just can say you that I ALWAYS encountered strange bugs with AMD/Radeon. I was always asking why things were not working like for all others…
Then AMD becomes more and more popular… I have chosen to go for a 11900k (considered bad and that was released at the time of the Ryzen 2) and a 3080 because I have seen one the morning I have seen one available… I did not know that the RTX 3080 was a rare graphic card when i clicked “buy”.
But what I can say is that since this moment, I have ceased to encounter strange bugs.
So yes AMD is always better on paper… I have seen that during 25 years. But at home, when you run into problems, the situation is different…
I watch Intel situation with fear… cause I dont want to go back to AMD.
