BF 2040 unplayable - CPU 100% and GPU not
There is already a mega thread about this issue. I just tried to open my own ticket on it. I'm told it's a bug. "They are working on it." I was told to post in the forums to get told the lates...

@NBKTHE1 Well, I can only do what they tell me to get an answer. Maybe if I post every day, they will take pity in me?
I have an i7-9700 with a RTX 2060 (6GB) and 16 GB RAM.
It's not a bad system and should play the game fine.

Any update on this? I was told to come here for an official answer. So far, it's been 2 weeks and no official answer.
Having the same problems with no answer from ea. I have recommended hardware and a good internet connection. tried all the fixes and i even had my router and modem replaced. Very frustrating.
I had a clan mate have me try something, and I think it is helping. I haven't had issues, but I haven't been on a crowded server yet.
- Go to DOCUMENTS / BATTLEFIELD2042 / SETTINGS / and a file called PROFSAVE_profile
- right click on it and select OPEN.
- Use NOTEPAD to open it.
Change these settings:
GstRender.DLSSEnabled 1
GstRender.Dx12Enabled 1
GstRender.ShadowQuality 0
GstRender.WeaponDOF 0
-File and SAVE
I have been able to play the game for the first time in months. I don't think I've had an issue yet, but still haven't been on a crowded server.
@heychadwickThe 9700k's seem to be effected the most, a lot of posts about it, i think 8 core 8 thread just is not enough, it needs more still, I had a 8086k (6 core 12 thread @ 5ghz) and was getting hammered (like 70-80% usage), GPU would drop into 60-70% usage (3090).
I upgraded to a 12900k (16 core 24 thread) and its a night and day difference, however, I have 10 cores being utterly hammered (running @ 5.1ghz) still and it will still drop the GPU down to low 90% usage in some areas)
The tl;dr is, this game is so demanding it's insane. 9700k's are great CPU's but this really wants a few more threads. Lets hope they optimise this ... a lot.
