I play any video game, like fortnite, rocket league, minecraft or robloc, it only lags when playing game but i go to discord or a browser and it is fine. i got to the Radeon Software and i check a few things and when i play a game my graphics card utilization jumps up to 99% and 72c. Ive not been able to play game or anything for like 3 weeks because of this and ive had my PC for about a year and a half.

I would focus on a software problem that's causing the video card to be utilized at it's maximum.  To start, I would uninstall the current graphics drivers (Radeon Software) and reboot once before installing a fresh download of the latest graphics drivers.

I tried that and now every time I try installing the software a error comes up. It is error 206 - AMD Software install cannot proceed do to a pending windows install or update. Please restart windows before running AMD Software install. So what should I do.
