I started to wonder if the game was mining in the background.
I can understand if there is improvement in a game and 3-5 fps drops. But if the game with a minimum of 140 fps drops to 50-51 fps, there is another problem.
Including Vol 5, the maximum CPU usage was around 20-22%, the processor temperature remained at 45 degrees. Now it goes up to 80% CPU usage and 75 degree temperatures.
When I turned on the AMD AFMF feature in Vol 5, I was getting 290 fps at 2k ultra. 170-180 when off. Even in intense urban races, it dropped to 140 fps. Now I'm happy if I get 60 fps.
