Hi Kell,
A lot of us have been having this issue since release unfortunately. Best I can figure based on the specs I've seen is that this seems to be an issue with intel processors. Seems like a lot of folks that have this issue are on intel chips. I myself have an i5-8600k, and have this issue. Your graphics card is much newer than mine (i've got a 1070 TI), so it's interesting to see that you are also still seeing this. Must be processor related imo, but until/unless Bioware ever answers us, we'll never know I suppose.
Thank you for the reply. I do think it's a CPU bottleneck issue with the processors. my graphics card is newer but my CPU is several generations old at this point, so I wouldn't be surprised if that's the issue. But it's weird when I can run games like Baldur's Gate 3 and FFXVI just fine on it.
I have also been able to run BG3 without any major issues.
Veilguard seems to hate intel processors for some reason. I dunno.
