Debian Buster and brand new GDDR6 PCIe 4.0 Graphics card

So let me say firstly that the graphics card works. BUT it is clearly and poorly underperforming.

Here's the card's title from where I bought it:
GIGABYTE Radeon RX 5500 XT DirectX 12 GV-R55XTGAMING OC-8GD 8GB 128-Bit GDDR6 PCI Express 4.0 x16 ATX Video Card

Here's a link to where I bought it:

To my knowledge this card is very new and that's probably why there might not be good support for its hardware.

The problem I'm having is that when I start up a game on steam (namely Warband Mount and Blade which is quite an old game), the game works but the graphics are very choppy and there is a slight lag. It's obvious to anyone who sees the gameplay that the graphics card is underperforming in a major way...

I updated and installed new drivers and I also upgraded my linux kernel from 4.19 to 5.6 (Debian Buster) but still it seems like nothing has changed.

I made another previous thread that I'm going to mark solved because I misunderstood what the real problem was and mislabeled it.

Any advice on what to do would be greatly appreciated!latest?d=yIl2AUoC8zA latest?i=-iPTtYVJKL8:bq3oQkEfLXI:F7zBnMy latest?i=-iPTtYVJKL8:bq3oQkEfLXI:V_sGLiP latest?d=qj6IDK7rITs latest?i=-iPTtYVJKL8:bq3oQkEfLXI:gIN9vFw-iPTtYVJKL8
