100% CPU Utilization, 0% GPU Utilization

Game crashes with DGXI_ERROR_DEVICE_HUNG every time during intro regarrdless of settings or driver version, noticed that it is only using CPU, 75%-100% at all times and not using GPU at all, ingame or in menus. The VRAM will fill up to 9 or 10GB but beyond the initial loading of textures there is absolutely no GPU activity

    My system meets and exceeds the minimum requirements for the game.

    Tried all of the potential fixes that you mentioned here, nothing worked, tried uninstalling Game Ready drivers and installing Studio drivers, still no change. Still minimal GPU utilization, and still crashes in the exact same spot, right after high quality textures load in during the intro Kellion ride
