i7-9700k 100% CPU usage

[OffizierCarl]

@TheLocalTroll Yes i had a problem with RDR2 but i fixed it, my gpu usage is 98% ingame. I got a 750w powersupply its fine. 

When i play battlefield my CPU usage was about 93-99% and my gpu got bottlenecked, i think.

I dont use Nvidia experience, but i had to update them for RDR2.

@OffizierCarl Since the gpu is working fine for rdr2 we can rule out any issues with it. Only reason I wanted to see result from another game was to just rule out stuff like that since all other fixes keeps failing for you. Still a bit interesting if another frostbite game works fine for you like battlefront 2 you mentioned previously.

Your gpu shouldnt be bottlenecked in BFV with the cpu you have. 

Could you try something else.

Can you create config.cfg file in your battlefield v installation folder and add these two lines?

PerfOverlay.DrawFps 1

RenderDevice.RenderAheadLimit 2

The first will show you the fps in game (without using origin overlay) and the second will try to put less load on the cpu. you may switch the value to 1 or 3 while in-game by typing the same line (RenderDevice.RenderAheadLimit) in console.

@TheLocalTroll My cpu usage is sometimes a bit lower but in some cases it still goes up to 93%+, my Gpu usage doesnt go over 84% if i use these settings. Im still testing if my mouse feels better.

@OffizierCarl 

Its a bit strange but its almost like the CPU is a bottlenecking the gpu.

That shouldnt really happen. I mean my old 7700K is hardly bottlenecking a rtx 2080 (both operates at near 100% while playing bfv) 

Have you done any tweaks in your bios regarding volts, boost etc?

Can you check that the cpu is operating at max boost frequency? Just use hwinfo or hwmonitor and let it run in the background.when the round has loaded just alt tab and reset the values, then play for a while and alt tab again to see what average and maximum says. if those arent showing near boost maximum (4,7-4,9 ghz) then that is the problem.

@TheLocalTroll All cores stuck at 4600ghz

@OffizierCarl tbh I'm starting to run out of ideas. There is no reason why your gpu isnt running at max. 

Do you use xmp in your bios? Could you try switch it from whatever its set to now? If its not on, then enable it.

Also what happens if you just max out the graphic settings. set it to ultra, increase scaling etc. all of these should push you gpu.

[OffizierCarl]

@TheLocalTroll The reason is my CPU bottleneck... that should not be there.

@OffizierCarl @TheLocalTroll @XTRA-Larsiano Did you find any solution? I have the exact same problem. i7-9700K and RTX 2070 Super, 32 Gb DDR4 @ 3000 Mhz. When using the framerate limiter to 60fps i get 70-80% cpu usage and the GPU downclocks from 1950Mhz to 1000Mhz and like 30% usage. When upping the framrate limiter to 120fps my GPU goes back up to 1950 MHz and like 80-90% usage and the CPU instantly goes 100%. It barely matters if i go low, or ultra settings. with everything maxed out at Ultra including DXR my framerate is about 70 fps, cpu 100% and gpu 90-95%. This is at 1080p which IMO should be higher?! 

When running other games like for example MotoGP19 or F1 or anything like this i have like 40-50% CPU usage and 95% GPU usage at ultra settings and then putting out around 200 fps ?!

Seems to me like there are problems with this game if u look at the number of forumposts about HEAVY cpu usage compared to the gpu ????

same here

I also have the i7-9700k and I am playing in 4k mixed details in DX11 on a RTX 3080.

BFV seems to be a very CPU intensive game and keeps this CPU really busy at around 120 FPS.

At least I could drop my Temps for around 10 Degrees with undervolting the CPU by 0,05mV
