Hi Ive just upgraded my old pc and now im getting worse performance than before. on 3d mark with my old set up i scored a 2100 adv is 2500. with my new set up i scored a 1800, with the adv being 2600.

old pc specs:
intel i7 8700k stock
rtx 2080 stock
16gb ddr4 @3000
750 gold psu

new pc specs:
Amd 7950x3d stock
rtx 2080 stock
32gb ddr5 @6000
750 gold psu

the highest my temps will get during the benchmark for the cpu is 82c and my gpu gets to around 81. im not super computer savy but i dont really get why performance would drop after an upgrade. any help would be great. if need some more information i can try my best and get it for you.

applications and capabilities
Uninstall
when you uninstall it reboots and then reinstalls

exactly, your processor is hot and there it works from temperatures and the card should be afraid of it when it exceeds 95-100.
what cooling do you have in your processor and what case you have?
For cooler I have a noctua nh-d15 dual tower cooler and my case I have no idea lol its an older case for sure I tried taking the side panel to see if temps came down but it didnt change a thing
