Fps stuttering - eviltoast

Hello fellow gamers,

I recently upgraded my GPU to a 7800xt nitro+, but in high FPS situations, like overwatch 2, the card stutters sometimes. Like going from the desired 160fps down to like 80 for a second. In general, the FPS are not stable. Before a match it hovers in the 100s regions. That can’t be right?

I tried setting everything very uncompetitively on ultra or max just for giggles and because I thought I could. 3440x1440p. Is this the dreaded “AMD driver issue”?

CPU: 5600X PSU:750W SSD: 980pro nvme

    I have found an interesting clue. When I start the game, at the loading screen, normally there’s a light shining down from top right and some random squares hovering around. These assets load in quite slow, with my 1080 it was there instantly. They pop in, like first the light, then the squares. While that happens, the loading circle is actually also stuttering. Does this maybe have something to do with slow/bad configured VRAM?
