I recently built a PC with the GPU being a Radeon RX 6950 XT, the operating system is Windows 11. When I run certain games from my steam library, they start loading but then freeze. When I attempt to close these programs from the task manager, they persist in the background, taking up resources and steam never registers that they are closed. This forces me to restart to actually close the programs.

These games only freeze like this when they are running using the discrete GPU, but work fine when using the integrated (Intel) one. I've tried reinstalling the GPU drivers, reinstalling the games, checking the disk health, and none of those common solutions worked for me. Is there anything I can do to fix this issue?

Games I know freeze like this: Rimworld, Prison Architect, Lego Worlds, Marble it Up

Minecraft and Source games work perfectly fine, as well as some others, for whatever reason.

Here are the specs: systemInfo.txt - Google Drive

Have you tried Verifying the integrity of the game files for the problem programs? If you're done that you might try posting in the Steam discussion groups of the specific games to see if others are having the same issue.
