Low GPU Utilization under 10%

My Information about my PC. I will list the issue i am having at the bottom.

GPU: Asus - GeForce GTX 980 TI STRIX
Driver version: 416.94
Bios: 84.00.36.00.2B
Device ID: 10DE 17C8 8548 1043
part number: G600 0030

RAM: 

MANUFACTURER: Corsair

PART #: CMD16GX3M2A2133C9

TYPE: 240-pin DIMM

SPEED: DDR3-2133

SIZE: 16 GB (2 x 8 GB)

CAS LATENCY: 9

TIMING: 9-11-11-31

VOLTAGE: 1.65 V

HEAT SPREADER: Yes

ECC: No

REGISTERED: No

I have attached the DXdiag.txt file for review.

I have had the following issue since day one and still having it after today's patch.

The issue I am having is after about 1-2 Hours of continuous game play in a single session, my GPU utilization will go from 95-100% down to 1-10% and the game becomes unplayable. I then have to restart the game for it to run smoothly again. seems to be like some memory leak?

I have played BFV in every possible settings configuration with DX12 on and off and i keep getting low GPU utilization after long gaming sessions. My work around for this issue right now is that after ever round I have to restart BFV to guarantee smooth game play and 100% GPU utilization. its very random when this Bug occurs. If i find anything that helps this issue, I will report back on this thread.

    Hey @Pimpage

    Make sure you have your GPU set as the main display device, surprisingly some scenarios have been where the CPU is doing all the work and not the GPU!

    Check Future Frame Rendering is switched off to test gameplay? If it runs smoothly with no crashing it could be FFR related. Make sure to play with DX11 enabled instead of DX12.

    Just a few tips to try out...

    Best of Luck!
