Fps stuttering (lemm.ee)

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"?

Both temperatures are around 67C, so no worries there. Windows is around 1.5 years old. I just installed the driver with DDU because I come from Nvidia. But I will check the chipset drivers

Do you have this issue in every game or just Overwatch? It has been years, but in the original Overwatch I had a similar issue, ~200 fps and constant random stutters. Unfortunately I'm not sure what fixed it back then.

It was either fixing G-Sync (Try running the game without FreeSync with your 7800xt, does the stuttering persist?) or sound issues (Disable all sound devices you don't actually use, for example HDMI, or DP etc.).

I haven't really noticed it elsewhere (cyberpunk, Baldurs Gate), so that it really has something to do with high fps. Maybe I will download cs2 just to benchmark it and see if it's a overwatch specific problem. I will try disabling freesync and will report back
