Hi, I just upgraded my gpu from a GTX 1650 Super to a AMD 6600 XT.

Before installing the new gpu I uninstalled the NVIDIA drivers as I saw online, and installed AMD Adrenalin with the new drivers for my gpu, after that I started to gaming but immediately I saw that my FPS were almost the same as the old gpu, the game frame lag so often and sometimes my screen goes black for a couple of seconds, I tried to solve it by searching online some good setting for AMD Adrenalin but nothing changed. Can you tell me what can cause these problems and how to solve them? ty
 
Welcome to the forums, newcomer!

Did you remove your prior GPU's drivers using DDU, before you shut down the system and removed the GTX1650? You're advised to install your latest GPU drivers in an elevated command, i.e, Right click installer>Run as Administrator.

Can you please list the specs to your build like so:
CPU:
Motherboard:
Ram:
SSD/HDD:
GPU:
PSU:
Chassis:
OS:
Monitor:

Include the age of the PSU as well.
