7900XT low performance in W40k Darktide and Cyberpunk

Issue Description:

EDIT: Just tested Cyberpunk and it is a similar issue. Average 20fps (benchmark), no matter what settings I use. GPU is barely awake while the game is running.

Original text:
After upgrading my PC from Ryzen 5600X with 6800XT to Intel 13600K + Radeon 7900XT, Darktide runs at 20-35 fps even in the Hub on low graphic settings. Missions themselves go even lower.
The GPU doesn’t seem to clock above 1400MHz and won’t even reach 40°C. It doesn’t seem to be used by the game in any meaningful capacity.
My old system easily achieved 60fps and higher on high settings on the same monitor. Any further tips beyond what I've already tried are appreciated. I'll probably have to wait for an updated driver, presumably.

Attempted Solutions:
All without (or barely any) impact on the problem:

  1. All settings to low (including playing around with FSR 1/2)
  2. various settings in the Driver on/off
  3. checked if Intel iGPU was in use (was not the case)
  4. made sure Darktide is used on primary GPU adapter in Windows graphics settings
  5. verified game files
  6. deleted %appdata%/Roaming/Fatshark folder (in case old config files were in use)
  7. various worker threads settings (Darktide lets you set the amount of theads to use)
  8. DDU’d and reinstalled GPU Driver
  9. reinstalling the game
  10. reverting to Driver version 22.12.1
  11. switching between Silent- and OC-BIOS of the GPU
