i7-9700k 100% CPU usage

I agree strongly a virus scanner and Google Chroom are two of the usual suspects here, disable them during a game. Also for me the Lightingservice.exe can sometimes use a lot of CPU. 

@XTRA-Larsiano  If I test my BF 5, I always close every tabs or programms.

@3DiE9djua2  @XTRA-Larsiano  I tried everything except disabling HPET.

So do you think this usage is normal for a i7-9700k? Im so confused, we tried so much...but other people with the same setup dont have these problems...

If you watch for gameplay with the same setup you see like 70-85% max 90% but i got permanatly 100% its crazy, my mouse sens is getting lower and less and less smooth when my cpu is at the limit of its performance. If you still have ideas, I would appriciate if you could send them to me.

The cpu usage is a result of your low gpu usage.

Thats why we need to get the game to utilize your gpu more.

You want your gpu to run at near 100%. thats when you get the most out of your gpu.

It's really odd that nothing works for you.

Do you happen to own any other EA games made on the frostbite engine?

Previous battlefield titles, anthem, battlefront? Or can you download a demo of one of them. 

I think all of them have 10 day free trial. Preferable battlefield 1 and anthem.

I just want you to check what happens with those games regarding your gpu usage.

And one more thing. Does this happen both in multiplayer and single player?

And please try to disable HPET.

Also can you confirm that your cpu is actually running at max clock speed and using all threads? 

@3DiE9djua2 My downloadspeed isnt fast. I got SWBF 2, but I need to download the game, it would take a few days(testing included).

When Im in practice range my CPU usage is about 70-90%, when I play a story mission my usage goes to 90-100%.

I cant tell if my CPU is using all threads  or runs at max clock speed.

Im trying to disable HPET right now.

@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.

@3DiE9djua2 I tried disabling HPET but no difference...

I wouldnt care about my CPU usage, if my mouse sensivity wouldnt change ingame because of my CPU usage.

I played red dead redemption 2 yesterday, my CPU usage was about 30% or less.

I think my gpu has enought power (how could i check?). The Slot of my GPU is fine (its the first of the board).

I will check my GPU usage with Hwinfo.

@OffizierCarl In your new DXDiag there are no longer any mention of BFV however red dead redemption seems to leave some problem signatures for you along with epicgamelauncher. Not sure if it affects the game tho. However I see something I have seen many times related with low gpu usage and that is a general issue related to livekernelevent. Unfortunately this is a generic error and its almost impossible to debug without more information from logs and crash dumps. Was this dxdiag taken after you have played bfv?

what was your gpu usage in red dead redemption 2? was it near 100% or was it low?

For power to the gpu its more that you have a psu that is powerful enough to drive your system at full load and that all the cables are connected to the correct rails in the psu and to the gpu.

Are you using gforce experience? If yes, can you uninstall it. Also have you tried any older nvidia drivers? Sometimes an older driver works better

@3DiE9djua2 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.
