I've got the Red Dragon 5700XT and for some stupid reason the power draw during desktop use/idling is stupidly high at 144hz compared to 120hz (Literally it drops to HALF the power draw by dropping monitor refresh rate by 24Hz which is ILLOGICAL!). I also noticed that the clock speed is ridiculously high for the utilisation %. I've read somewhere in this forum that switching from HDMI to DP solves the problem. But I'm already connected through DP 1.4 on my monitor (27gl850).
Is this a driver bug of some sort? Contemplating of replacing my GPU as it's currently running too hot, too high a load, for doing absolutely nothing. (Never mind the terrible driver support, should've listened to advice about the constant black screens and stuttering in games). Anybody else have this issue?
