Dragon age inquisition running slow on a good computer
Hi I am trying to run Dragon age inquisition on my new PC and its sooo slow and laggy,but my PC is super powerful :/ I havent been activating my windows yet, i got some issues with my code, is that a factor?
my specs;
CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 5600X
GUP: MSI GeForce GTX 1660 VENTUS XS 6G OC
Motherboard: B550 AORUS ELITE V2
RAM: HyperX Fury Black 16 GB DDR4 3200MHz
Power supply: Corsair RM Modular 750 W
Hard disk drive: Samsung SSD 970 EVO 1TB NVMe M.2
Basic way to find out what you need, is to open task manager, and if set to fewer details then click on more details in bottom left corner and then click on performance tab. This should bring up a list of your CPU--usually highlighted and displaying details on right side of tab, with options to see Memory, disks, Ethernet, and GPU by clicking on them on the left and it will display on right.
If you have two monitors then this is easier, simply open taskmanager on extra screen, and then play game on other....if not then open game set to run windowed and create a split screen by having taskmanager on one side and game on other. Next step is to then look and see what is being used and to what extent. You also want to pay attention to the clock speeds listed for both CPU and GPU as well as total utilization. If CPU is maxed, then click over tabs on taskmanger to processes and see exactly what is taking up what percentage of the CPU. Processes tab can also be used to see quickly how much of all the items each program is using.
Running in windowed mode also sometimes fixes this issue...but it isn't something I prefer to have my games run as....
