Just upgraded from a 660 GTX to an XFX 7970 card. Install went well, but now I have some issues with noise and GPU usage. CCC Showed 99% Usage on the 7970 card and fan speeds at 71%. Can't get it to lower at all. I uninstalled all drivers through Safe Mode (including the new AMD drivers) but still get the same thing if I install AMD drivers from the site. Windows default driver keeps it quiet, but I get some lag from it. Can't seem to figure it out at all...

Specs -

Windows 10 Pro
AMD 9370 (Stock)
16GB DDR3 1600Mhz (Stock)
256GB SSD Boot Drive
Single 7970 3GB (Stock)
M5A99FX Pro R2.0
Antec True Power Quattro 1000w PSU

I am trying to remedy this before I install my second 7970.
