Extreme FPS drop due to CPU/GPU allocation in game

Product: Battlefield 2042
Platform:PC
Please specify your platform model. PC
AMD or Nvidia Model Number RTX2070 (N2070WF3-8GC)
Enter RAM memory size in GB 16GB
Are you using any software with an overlay? No
Which part of the game is the issue happening in? Multiplayer
Which part of the mode? Conquest
Please select your region Asia
On which server did this happen? Server in Taiwan, cannot confirm which
When did this happen? (dd.mm.yy hh:mm) Since release
Summarize your bug 2042 allocates all resources to CPU (60-70%) and GPU is running only at 2%, despite i have forced Win10 to run this game with GPU. This causes severe FPS drops. In game lobby, i have at maximum 200 FPS, but in game is only 25-40 FPS.
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? I do not know.
What happens when the bug occurs? Because it's constantly running on such a low FPS, i cannot shoot people or respond to my opponents at all.
What should be happening instead? Not having FPS drops? have the game runs on GPU instead of CPU?

    Hey, @ArchAngeIic  can you try a clean boot to see if any programs are messing with Battlefield 2042 and turn off any overlay programs, such as Discord or Nvidia experience.

     

    Can you add a Dxdiag so we can see what hardware and drivers you have? 

     

    Let me know if this works or not for you. 🙂

    @ArchAngeIic A lot of people, including myself, are experiencing this where CPU utilization is extremely high compared to GPU utilization. They are aware of the optimization issues so hopefully after the new year we will seem some improvement over the next few patches.

    My guess the reason why the FPS is higher in the lobby than on the server is b/c the lobby isn't on the actual server.
