So fairly recently I got a new graphics card, an RX 480, to replace my dated R9 280. I was super excited to play Skyrim and actually get the fps I should, and yet I don't. I've posted this before but it never got fixed so I'm doing it again. In Skyrim my 480 gives me about 45 fps, and occasionally dips below 25. This is the Special Edition with a decent amount of mods installed, but not too many graphically demanding ones. In certain games (Pillars of Eternity, Killing Floor 2) the game will freeze repeatedly, rendering it unplayable. This freezing never stops. Here is an example of the freezing:

The game plays exactly how the video looks. Games this occurs in that I know of:
Tyranny
Pillars of Eternity
Atlas Reactor
Killing Floor 2
Troubleshooting I've done:
Uninstalled and reinstalled drivers multiple times. Monitored various hardware stats during gaming and discovered that my GPU usage drops to 50% every single time the game freezes. The problem is that I don't know what exactly causes the drops.
Please help, thank you.
