Yea but pike was asking
https://www.msi.com/Graphics-card/support/Radeon-RX-480-GAMING-X-8G
Wattman is bad as Nvidia GeForce experience.
1. Wattman is bad..., because? Aha. No point. It's ok.
2. You recommend an older driver on the MSI Website, although it's a 08 / 15 default driver from amd?
3. Uninstall Wattman? Great idea. Just remove the whole driver... then Wattman is gone away. Promised.

@TO
First i would check, if the card is acting differently, if you're using the "real" stock defaults recommended by amd. Hardware may experience aging. This goes for power supplys too.
But if you say, the gpu stays around 60 °C, then it looks like, as if you had configured this limit somewhere. Perhaps inside the bios? Or in the driver? Did you already tried a full uninstall in safe mode with DDU (guru3d)?
Me too has an MSI RX 480 Gaming X 8G, running at MSI default settings (just raised the temperature for the fans, lowered the voltage and lowered max rpms of the fans) - it's just too loud under normal conditions. ^^
new power supply. i can make the card run at higher temperatures by forcibly lowering the fan speed. but the rise in temperatures causes the clock to drop even heavily. like from 1303mhz to 800mhz range. one more thing, if i overclock the card the computer freezes and loses display. this was not the case before, ran fine for a year with stock clocks and overclock
1. open wattman
2. set frequency to -10
3. go to voltage control. any number more than 1000, set to 1000.
4. set power limit to 0.
5. apply settings and open afterburner.
6. run firestrike.
does speed drop or stay constant?
if it stays constant, you can gradually raise frequency and retest.
if it drops, then it's time to replace your card.
Was this card ever used for mining?
Install afterburner and set up a fan curve. That's it. no muss no fuss.
You can even have it run 100% all the time and see what happens and adjust from there.
If that doesn't work consider your warranty.
It's not the software issue, it's the hardware.
There are only 3 possible workarounds;
1. Lower the voltage and clock and lose around 15% or less of performance for a stable FPS. This only applicable if you just need to lower the clock by 150 MHz or less. Otherwise you will lose a lot of FPS like downgrading to R9 280X sub par graphics card.
2. Replace the thermal paste (might void warranty)
3. Send for RMA if eligible
Anyway do tell me what's your solution.
