First AMD card 7900XT seems like it has low FPS

Hello

A question just got a 7000XT and it seems like my FPS is really low. I'm only really playing Warcraft right now and MSI  afterburner benchmark is saying the average FPS is 53. Card is stock no over or under clocking i do play at 3440x1440 with settings on high not ultra on a ryzen 9 3900X. Is this what I can expect for frames on this card coming from an Nvidia 2080 and I was getting like 120 FPS

I'm having the same issue. On World of Warcraft I averaged around that 53 mark you're experiencing and I feel like my fps is worse than it was with my 2080Super. I went and lowered my graphic settings to enjoy a smooth experience i expected to get when upgrading to this card. And my friend who has a 6800XT is having better performance than me most of the time, and by a decent amount. He's getting up to 80fps more than me on Minecraft (our CPU's basically perform the same so it's not that). He's able to play Escape From Tarkov on the same settings as me and I'd say on average gets more FPS, it's frustrating and praying it's due to drivers and hoping they get optimised soon if that is the case

The 7900XT seems to aggressively downclock VRAM when it gets the chance. As a result in older, very CPU bound games where there is very little GPU load, VRAM downclocks and performance takes a nosedive (often with severe  stuttering). Games like Starcraft 2, Genshin Impact, etc. If you turn on the metrics overlay in Radeon Software and observe VRAM clock dipping while in-game, you've found your culprit. If you only have one monitor I'm not sure what you can do aside from try to increase GPU load (increase render resolution, higher quality settings, etc).

But if you have multi monitor you can try the new 23.1.2 drivers where VRAM doesn't seem to downclock anymore from 2487MHz. Or you can keep both monitors at high refresh rates at all times, which should keep VRAM clock high as possible.

Same issue as me here.

I upgraded from a 3060 to the Sapphire radeon nitro+vapor x 20gb.

It feels more like a downgrade to be honest.

Games perform better on the old 3060 without stuttering.

 

I also have a friend who has the 7800 and he is seeing framerates of 200+ in eso,i am lucky if i can max it out at 120 without stuttering issues.

To be honest, if it continues i hate to say it but the card is goign back and i'm going back to Nvidia,which i DO NOT really want to do here.

But paying £750 for a card that is way underperforming is basically not happening.

 

Playing wow i get framerates of around 80 fps but my settings are lower than i was using on my 3060 and it should be the exact opposite.

I should be able to run the game at much higher framerates.

 

I honestly don't know what's going on here but it really is making me think twice.

I also have a full amd ryzen 3900x system as well.

 

I really do hope you guys here get on much better than i am and hopefully get all these issues sorted out.

Best of luck
