Is this just an issue with the way the drivers are written? Have others noticed this? Bought a brand new 6900 XT from AMD, and it is NOT as smooth as the RX 570 (4GB lol)
I think it's the way the drivers work with macOS animations, idk.
The score on Geekbench metal is right where it should be. But the overall use with the UI is not as smooth
oh yeah! and during use, bout every 20-30 minutes, it'll have like a freeze for 3-5 seconds, and then resume normally. This doesn't happen at all with the 570
The 6900 XT doesn't have any of these issues on Windows, have gamed for hours.
So I'm trying to figure out if it's a faulty unit but it seems unlikely since it works well on Windows.
Can anyone else confirm some choppiness with an AMD Reference 6900 XT? or possible solutions?
Running Monterey 12.3.1
