Radeon 530 lag spikes

i have a Radeon 530 that is pretty much capable of running most games at low graphics but one day I downloaded an update for the drivers and it suddenly detected it as an r7 m340 so I was really confused but I thought it did not matter so then I played a game and got these horrible lag spikes every 10 seconds so games were unplayable. I really want to get a fix for this.i am on a laptop by the way

my specs:

processor: Intel core i7 7500U 

ram: 16gb

GPU: Radeon 530

You may try to remove the update and install the former driver back.

Try uninstalling with DDU (Display Driver Uninstaller) and then installing the latest drivers. If that doesn't work, DDU again and install the old drivers. If that still doesn't work, then odds are you've got something else that is conflicting with your game. It could be anything that you've installed since then, a new program, a Windows update, a piece of malware or even a virus. So make sure to run a virus scan with a decent virus scanner. If none of the above helps, try closing down programs one at a time. Your web browser for instance might be using your GPU in the background, also try closing the apps in the System Tray.

Never mind I realized that after a few hours of playing that it would start to drop fps alot like I would start a game and I would see it going firm 60fps to 10fps and it lasts for like 3 seconds I wonder is there another fix

Sorry, I don't have any other solution myself. Perhaps somebody else here has an idea?

Do a Offline scan with window defender to make sure there is no virus running around in ya system

you can try to clean your driver with DDU and then install the driver provided by your Laptop OEM (HP, Dell, Acer etc)

PC: R7 2700X @PBO + RX 580 4G (1500MHz/2000MHz CL16) + 32G DDR4-3200CL14 + 144hz 1ms FS P + 75hz 1ms FS
Laptop: R5 2500U @30W + RX 560X (1400MHz/1500MHz) + 16G DDR4-2400CL16 + 120Hz 3ms FS

actually it won't work too . because my laptop is Hp and the last definition of amd is old . it doesn't Corresponds to Windows 10 Version 1909 .as you can see0.PNG
