XFX RX 580 8gb having performace issues

[luksops]

Hello Guys,


This week i bought a new XFX RX 580 8gb GPU to replace my older one thats gone (XFX Radeon HD 7870 2gb). I got the GPU, installed correctly, formatted the computer with all drivers updated, then i started CS:GO to test it up and got LOWER fps then when i had my HD 7870. Now im getting FPS drops down to 150, but with my HD 7870 i easly got my fps stuck on 270~299, never dropping down then 220 fps. I tested the game running the MSI Afterburn and my CPU doesnt overcome the 25% usage mark, while my GPU do not overcome the 50% usage mark, even when im getting 150 fps. The GPU temperature is likely 55 C.

I tested up the game with a DP cable ( to be able to use freesync + 144hz + 1ms), and another test with a DVI cable (144hz + 1ms), and got same results.

Does it even make sense to upgrade from a HD 7870 (7 years old) to a RX 580 and start getting FPS drops?

If someone can help, id be grateful.

Thanks in advance.

My settings are:

CPU: Ryzen 5 1600
MOBO: MSI b350m Gaming PRO
RAM: 2x8gb 2133mhz
GPU: XFX RX 580 8gb
FONTE: Corsair CX 600

obs: sorry for bad english, im not native.

An RX580 is more powerful than the HD7870 so there's definitely a settings difference here. It may be graphics AMD setting, game setting, or both. Try adjusting settings to get the performance you want.

Yeah, i know that, but i have no idea what to change to solve it. I already up power +50% on wattman, did the OC+ tutorial from XFX and still dropping. Im suspecting thats maybe the driver, cz its the only thing im using different from my HD 7870, it now has a ALR + R radeon overlay (pretty good id say), ill reinstall an older driver and see what happens.

im still using the same mems that i was using with my older GPU, i dont want to overclock, i only want to, at least, get the same stability as my old HD 7870.

Thank u both for the responses, but i still need help !

Did you ever solve the issue, if so, what was the problem? Did you have to return the card for replacement? Just wondering as we've seen a lot of RX 580's with problems over the last few months.
