PC Graphics

Hi there, I`m having an issue regarding the recently Resident Evil 4 and I've tried some things but nothing worked, so asking here as my last resort

Playing in 1080p, game runs perfectly smooth, around 100fps with almost all graphics config at maximum, with GPU usage around 50% and 70%. After a couple of minutes playing the game suddenly drops to 30 fps and the GPU usage goes to 99% and stays like that. After that, even lowering the graphics doesn`t change anything, the game keeps running at very low fps. At first I though it could be thermal throttling and I changed the thermal paste for both my GPU and CPU but I keep having the same issue. And I also play heavier games where the temperature goes higher and nothing happens to the game, it is only happening in RE4. I also tested playing Resident Evil Village, which have the same recommended hardware specs and the game runs perfectly well under the same configs and even at 2K without any frame drops. 
Any help or tip will be appreciated, thanks.

I have the same problem. Playing in almost ultra settings 1440p (no RT) with RX6650xt and framerate is randomly droping to 15-20 fps. In this case opening a map for ~10 seconds is helping to get normal framerate back.

IMO it looks like drivers issue.

I played the game on lauch with the same driver and for me on a 6700XT game ran perfectly well. Both you and OP have lower VRAM cards and you say you play on almost ultra settings 1440p. For me at 1440p the game often used 10-11 GB of VRAM (performance overlay, not the stuff that's in settings, the settings thing is completely incorrect) so perhaps lowering some settings like texture quality could solve these issues for you.

У меня ошибка другого характера d3d error 25. Вся информация которая есть в интернете ссылается на драйвера AMD. Но фикса никакого так и не было. Прошёл уже 1 мес после релиз но без успешно. Играю без Ретрейсинга все равно не помогает. Подскажите как решить. Видеокарта rx5700xt.

That's not a driver issue, that's happening because of low VRAM. The game can get quite memory hungry in some sections and that's what causes the d3d crash. Lower some settings to reduce VRAM usage and it should be fine.
