I recently purchased an RX 7800 XT. I'm facing an unusual situation where newer games like Starfield and Cyberpunk run flawlessly at ultra settings on 1440p, but Half-Life 1's frame rate can plummet to around 50 FPS.
I did run DDU, I did re-install Windows (twice), I did try Software mode instead of OpenGL I am running on the latest driver as of 23 november 2023.
Specs:
This happens on the rocket_frenzy map when directly looking at the rocket. Happens similarly on Cry of Fear in the first chapter. (I did test this on my laptop with a GTX 1650 and it ran it like butter)
What should I do? Do I return this GPU and go for Nvidia instead? Seeing as their OpenGL support isn't obsolete. Really regretting switching to team red as of right now..
