Specs:
AMD RYZEN 7 3700x
Asrock B550M Gaming motherboard (cant find any information on this and can't even update the bios to see if that would be the issue, but bios is from august 2019 so)
AMD RX 5700 XT
16 GB DDR4
So, this problem is really frustrating me. Let's say im playing squad. I play it at 1440p high settings, and i get good enough frames, but it stutters crazily. I got msi afterburner and saw that its using all of my vram and wanting more. Just to test to see if this was the issue, I set my res to 720p and low settings. Barely a drop in vram usage. Next game- rust. Play at 1440p nearly max settings, all of my vram is used. I would understand that it uses all my vram in this game if this was the only one. Lower it to 1080p and lower settings, and it uses a little bit less. Same with black ops 3. The only games that work are games that aren't hard to run. Does anyone have any ideas to what this could be? My cpu usage is fine, never seen it go above 50%. My ram is usually 12gbs or under, i think ive seen it one time above that. I usually do not have a browser open. If you got an idea of what it is (faulty card, bad drivers, etc...) let me know. It is a prebuilt desktop ( I would've built my own but I built my last one... and it wasn't built very good haha, so i figured I would buy a decent pc on black friday with all the sales. I got it at a decent price but I've been struggling with this. Thank you guys!
Edit: Wanted to add this is on a 4k monitor if that mattered, but im playing the games at 1440p or 1080p.
