Help with GPU Issue

[Darktoast35]

I've had my PC for a little over a year with no issues until just now. I'm suddenly getting low FPS in every game and the GPU fans are VERY loud. I have a Radeon 380x. MSI Afterburner says my GPU load is at a constant 100% with occasionally dips all the way to 0% then immediately back up to 100, temp is 76c. This is when idle btw. I've tried rebooting and reinstalling drivers. Anyone know what the issue is? Is it something I can fix, or is a new card the way to go?

If that's the case, How would you suggest removing it? MalwareBytes isn't finding anything.
