I've been running benchmarks on my GPU, and the scores are coming in lower than I anticipated. For example, I got a score of 6602 in Steel Nomad, but I expected it to be around 7000. I recently uninstalled my old NVIDIA driver using DDU, and I'm not sure what's causing this drop in performance. I've linked my benchmark results and some extra details for reference.

It sounds like you might be experiencing some CPU bottlenecking. If your gaming performance is still fine, then it might not be a huge deal. However, if you're aiming for better scores, upgrading to a 5700X3D could make a difference if you can find one for a good price.
That doesn't seem like the issue for me. My CPU load is typically low as well, but my setup still ranks in the bottom 4% compared to similar systems with the same CPU and GPU.
