I am very frustrated with my new XFX rx480 8GB which I recently bought. I am getting very lower FPS than my previous card (Radeon 7770) and it's nearly 4 years old.
In Heaven benchmark I am getting much lower FPS than all the other benchmarks. I have considered my CPU as a bottleneck for the GPU but it can't seem possible that it can get bottlenecked so much.
My system:
RAM: 8GB Kingston Value RAM (2x 4GB sticks)
OS:Windows 10 64 bit
GPU:XFX RX 480 8GB
CPU:i5 3470
Motherboard: H61M-P31 (G3) (MS-7788)
PSU: 450 Watt Thermaltake
Please help and give suggestions to what I could do. I have seen numerous posts about this problem which have just died and they didn't help me. I want to know if I should sell this GPU and get myself a 970. I had no problems with my previous AMD so I don't know if it's just a small problem I haven't fixed with this one. I don't know if this card is known for being defective either.
