7900 XT Driver Problems in Low usage of gpu

Hello, have my first amd chip since a month, and so far it's a mess. In games works the card fully fine, so long the GPU get used (like not in Football Manager), but when just windows in running, or watching anything on YouTube I get (probably) every 5-15 Minutes a driver timeout. In rare cases all colours get send wrong, without any notification, resolution to that is to unplug the screen for a second.

 

I am short before building back my 1080 into the PC, either to try to give the new card back or so windows will run over the old card and all the games on the new AMD card.

 

BIOS get updated, latest version of AMD driver (no new version in a month, that's pretty new for me)

 

Since ever and had not the best drivers, but I heard they managed it. Obviously not, I am kinda mad at AMD.

 

 

So my question is how to find out if the card is damaged or for which settings/software should I go for amd cards to have the least driver problems?

 

Thanks a lot.

 

Hardware:

Asus dual Radeon 7900 xt OC edition (not OC in use)

I9-11900k

Asus prime Z590-a

Kingston Fury ddr4-3200, 32gb (dual)

Be quiet 11 platinum 1000w 

Lexar nm790 4tb

This is how it looks when the gpu just sends all colours wrong, i don´t see it every evening, but kinda every second evening.

 

The often appearing problem looks like a black screen for 1-2 seconds and then a message coming up "driver timeout".

Noone has an Idea?

I mean these Problems are not usual, right?

I just can´t understand why in VR 4k x 4k works perfectly fine, aber hd windows causes problems, because of that i can´t think it´s a hardware problem.

But if there is not even an idea what can help/cause the problem i will try to give the card back on Monday, because it doesn´t make sence paying hundrets of euros for a card which is not working, caused by driver or hardware doesn´t matter then anymore.
