i7-9700k 100% CPU usage
My CPU (i7-9700k) is constantly at 100% usage while playing BF5. Thats why my game stutters sometimes and my mouse feels not precise. It would be nice if someone could help me to solve the problem. G...
@OffizierCarl You need to use a third party monitoring software to see how many cores and clock speed. Hwinfo is usually good for this.
However your cpu usage (granted it uses all cores and max clock speed) isnt that bad and I know many people with the same cpu as you who have those number for cpu usage. But they dont have any stutter tho and their gpu is being utilized at 100%.
tbh you shouldnt worry too much about you cpu usage. Its the gpu usage that is a concern since that one should run at 100% (or near 100%) when upping you graphic settings in the game.
And I think the cpu usage will be as it should be as soon as the gpu starts to get the correct workload.
I just realized I never asked if you have tried any other game. Just to see if its isolated just to BFV or if it happens in any game that stresses your system a bit.
If you download Battlefront 2 it would give a great indication since it also uses the same game engine but if you do have any other game easy available just check in that game first if the gpu usage is very low.
And a stupid question but you are absolutely sure the gpu is given enough power? That your psu is up to par and that you have connected it correctly to the psu? Also that you have used the correct pci-e slot on the motherboard. some motherboards doesnt give full speed on all pci-e slots. I assume this is ok but Im just asking just in case.
@OffizierCarl I saw you mentioned that you reinstalled your computer. Could you also post a new dxdiag? Just want to see if you still have that BEX64 error linked with bfv and the general issues with telemetry.
