New GPU but more unstable performance.

I upgraded from a Nvida 1070 to a 5070 Ti 16GB. In some ways I see a significant improvment in performance like AI Denoise and exporting, and third party plugins. But it hangs on images taking moments to render previews.  This did not happen with my six year old GPU.  Troubleshooting with AI alluded to Pipeline rendering issues. I disabled Acceleration and the problem went away but this is not a solution. I spend a thousand dollars on this GPU to speed up my workflow. 

PS, I have studio drivers installed.  I’m considering swapping them out to see if that fixes the problem.

    Please check if you've buildin a CPU with an integrated graphics processor and if it's enabled. This internal GPU can sometimes caused several issues. Adobe recommends disabling second GPUs

    Open the Windows Device Manager, right-click the card's name and choose Disable.

    Check also if you have installed the latest Studio Version for your graphic card.

    Make sure you have the latest Studio driver for this GPU.

      Thanks yes I have the latest drivers.   My in cpu GPU was confusing the system. Probably jumping rendering pipelines between them.

          Thanks it’s too soon to tell but everything seems to be running smoother and faster.  I also disabled the integrated GPU in bios to be safe.
