Stuttering, ghosting, horrible mid-distant textures and lighting issues - RX 7800 XT
Here goes nothing, looking for any help anyone can give...
I upgraded from a RTX 2070 super to a RX 7800 XT in February. Since then I've been noticing all sorts of issues that I never had with my Nvidia Card.
Without FSR on I get ghosting and blurred/pixelated text on screen when turning (moving the mouse of controller joystick). I put FSR on and it makes no difference.
Textures look horrible, pixelated and dull. Even with Adrenalin sharpening on and HDR active they look terrible, especially at a mid-range difference. Dark surfaces also flicker when I move my mouse/joystick in games.
Most recently, I have started to notice stutters in games. Just a fraction of a second, but it's happening every 5-10 seconds. I've been playing Forza and Splinter Cell Blacklist and it happens in both games. in forza they are micro-stutters, in Splinter Cell they lag the game completely.
I've tried all the adrenaline drivers but none are better than the others. I've been using a single stick of DDR4 3000Mhz (32GB) and have recently purchased a set of 4x8GB (3600Mhz) as I'm aware that running single channel can cause issues.
Any other advice from anyone? At this point, I'm close to getting rid of the card and going back to Nvidia (which I really don't want to do).
Setup:
Ryzen 5 5600X
32GB DDR4 3000Mhz
RX 7800 XT
1TB Nvme (gaming drive)
512GB SSD (windows and files)
