You're an **bleep** aren't you.
I've got a 3570k. It goes 100% in BF4, Skyrim, and pretty much all new MMOs; got it OCd to 4.2ghz@1.25v.

It wasn't meant to be sarcasm. What is the use of having a good processor if it's never fully used? The reason your friends only get to 60% is
1. Their processors are not fully supported by Frostbite 3,
2. They're wrong.
3. It doesn't require all of the processor at that time.
4. Bottleneck.
I've been keeping up to date and been benchmarking and building computers for almost 10 years now. BUT HEY, This is the internet; everything is sarcasm and no matter what people say they're wrong and you're right!
Sorry man i took your first comment the wrong way my comment may have been a little out of hand but all im looking for is, i guess, different feedback from saying that 100% is fine. I dont want to start an emotional blog here. i just want possible solutions and yes i will take yours into consideration sorry for seeming like **bleep**. thats not what im here for.
There is no solution, it's GOOD that your CPU goes 100%, else something would be wrong.
Well the only real solution is to not play CPU-intensive games.
Let me ask though; why are you worried? Does your CPU become too hot or something?
Sorry if I was too offensive last post, didn't mean to, just tired :D

Its all good, heat is not the problem and i dont really know why im worried i guess i just dont want processor to burn out or something, which is probably not likely. lol. i need to stop thinking about it and if a problem occurs deal with it when it happens. thanks for setting me straight cuz i stress over too many things.
Now that i realize this was theraputic in someway, but whatever. THANKS FOR THE FEEDBACK!
