RX 570 + i5 2400 perfomance issues

[Luke12]

Hi there

I have recently upgraded to a rx 570 from a 550, and its bottlenecking. I get frequent 0% gpu usage ingame, 85 to 100% cpu usage. In valorant I have the same 140fps I had with the RX 550 but stuttering sometimes. I have checked the gpu clock, upgraded the mb bios, but still.

8GB Ram DDR3

450w Coolermaster PSU

Could the PSU be causing it?

Seems that video card requires about 500 watts, maybe more depending on what hardware your pc has, that coolermaster would have struggled when it was new.

When it comes to PSUs Cooler Master are on the avoid list I[ICODE]m afraid, check the list [here]('http://www.realhardtechx.com/index_archivos/Page364.htm') and you will see that many of their PSUs labelled as 500W can[/ICODE]t even produce 400W, for reviews and test results see here
