Ever since AMD released 20.5.x drivers, i'm facing high cpu usage, because of that i didn't even update my gpu driver for months
Now cyberpunk is out, and they released a driver for cyberpunk, i wanted to use that but still same problem, i can't figure it out that what's the problem
I also tried some fixes from youtube but nothing is working,
It's not playable when radeon software is using 30% of the CPU all the time, even when i'm idle
but everything is fine when i'm using older drivers (20.4.x for example)
Can this be a windows issue or something? Im running windows 10 pro 1909 build,
And the cpu is i5 6400, & rx 590 8GB

The VERY FIRST thing I have everyone do to troubleshoot any issue like this is to UPDATE EVERYTHING.
I'd start with your Windows 10 because the 1909 update is outdated and there are many things in the later updates you need for gaming stability.
Next, make sure you are on your latest BIOS version for your motherboard, this is CRUCIAL.
Then go to Intel.com and also make sure you are using the latest chipset drivers and that all other Intel drivers are updated.
When you're done with all that I want you to download the latest graphics drivers, run the install and select "Factory Reset" upon installation so it does it from scratch.
Let me know what happens after.

I might move to 20H2 in the new year.
Do you have a copy of BF4?
Any chance you can see if your PC is stable for 2 hours of gaming without having a WHEA error and PC Reboot?
Your PC specs: Ryzen 5 3600 | ASRock x570 Pro4m | Corsair 3200MHz 16GB RGB Kit | XFX RX5700 | W10 20H2 | Latest BIOS for Mobo | Latest AMD Chipset Driver
are very close to one users PC complaining about that problem in this thread:
https://community.amd.com/t5/processors/whea-18-again-i-m-done/m-p/430522#M35418
I am unable to repeat the problem on Ryzen 2700X and X470 and RX5700XT
or on
Ryzen 5 3600 and MSI Tomahawk B450 Motherboard with an RTX2080 (not fitted an RX5700XT to that machine).
If you do have a copy of BF4 and you could test it that would be great.
Thanks.Yes absolutely, it's my favorite game actually. I will test that out this weekend and get back to you. Do I just need to have it running? Like I can enter into the "Test Range" and just sit there haha.
colesdav,
Over the weekend, I played a mix of BF4, Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1+2 (Remastered), Cyberpunk 2077 (maxed out), Fortnite, and Dirt Rally 2.0, and GTAV all without issue. Not a single crash, hiccup, or anything.
Every game is performing well, I get amazing framerate across them all for the hardware I have at least. I have settings virtually maxed out in all games.
Again, I am on the LATEST everything possible. GPU driver, chipset driver, BIOS for the ASRock Pro4m X570, all games on latest updates (Cyberpunk on 1.05), Windows 20H2.
- Ryzen 5 3600
- ASRock Pro4m X570
- XFX RX5700
- Corsair Vengeance Pro RGB 16GB Kit (8x2) 3200 MHz
- Samsung EVO 970 Plus 512GB NVMe (Boot Drive)
- Intel 660p Series 1TB NVMe (Secondary Drive for Data/Games)
- EVGA Supernova G3 650W Gold PSU
