Are you sure you have the latest drivers? You can download the latest from AMD's website. If you have and its still not working, try to check for windows updates, and also do a BIOS update.

I don't know the answer, but anyone's ability to help you is severely limited without your full system specs. List your CPU, RAM, power supply model and age, motherboard, and storage. Tell us what resolution you're playing at too.

You listed your power supply's wattage and efficiency rating; this is not a good indicator of the quality of your power supply. Please list your power supply's model and age.

The first thing I would do is get rid of the overclock when troubleshooting stability issues.

You have added more heat and power draw into the system with the 5700XT which may affect overclocking
