Hello guys, I have a bit of a problem with my PC at the moment.
A week ago, I had a R5 2600X that I changed to a R7 3700X because it was bottlenecking my RTX 2070 Super. So I changed it (without upgrading the MOBO because it's compatible) and for a day or two it ran flawlessly.
I bought RDR2 and it ran like a dream. After a GPU update two days ago, however, the game started acting all weird: The menu's would take too long to appear, my character wouldn't respond to player input, audio would drop out or play some sounds but not others, textures wouldn't load in if I moved too far from the area I spawned.
I blamed it on the game, but today I bought Metro Exodus and it's doing some of the same things, like the audio bugging out or the menu and textures not loading or taking too long to load.
Does anybody have a clue what could be causing all this? I uninstalled the GPU drivers with DDU and reinstalled them but no luck there. The only other thing that changed is the MOBO's bios, that I upgraded before the CPU change, so maybe that could be it? It's not all games, mind you, Resident Evil 3 runs pretty much flawlessly, even though the sound dropped out for a second after a cutscene, but maybe that's the game.
TL;DR: I changed my CPU and now some games take too long or don't even load menu's and textures and the sound drops out.
EDIT: I've linked a Youtube video to show you the issues.
