So I just recently picked this card up...and after 8 pages of diagnostics to figure out of my CPU was stuttering games I came to the conclusion that it might be the GPU...

When it comes to AMD, I honestly have never played around with their products but I wanted to give the RX 480 a shot. This RX 480 however...I'm realizing doesn't stick to the 1228mhz rating that the box states unless I bump power limit to +20%...does that sound right? Is something wrong with my card?
I don't notice abnormal temps or anything of that nature, but a I5 3570K @ 4.4ghz + RX 480 + 16 GB of ram shouldn't be dropping frames randomly during most games...right?
*Games for reference: Shadow Warrior 2, CS:GO stutter at times...where-as Overwatch runs fluid on maxed epic settings (1080P).
I did just purchase a new monitor as mine had a horrible refresh rate I realized...so maybe FreeSync + 75hz will help?
