    I´m in the same boat with the very high CPU usage. And because of that CPU limit i get low fps.

    I had that reported here:https://answers.ea.com/t5/Technical-Issues/CPU-load-95-100/m-p/8410642/highlight/true#M688

    A user gave me the link to this performance test: https://www.dsogaming.com/pc-performance-analyses/need-for-speed-heat-pc-performance-analysis/

    They had also very high CPU loads and because of that low fps. As you can read in their "Update" a user explained the issue and recommended to create a user.cfg to limit the used cores ect and it worked for them. I have not tried it yet but feel free to test it and report back please. Sounds like a workaround until Ghost fixes the issue.

    "UPDATE:

    It appears that the default online profile was the cause of our underwhelming CPU performance. By creating a user.cfg and limiting our CPU Processor Count, we were able to properly run the game (even without Hyper Threading). Kudos to our reader “connos” for providing the following solution.

    You can limit your CPU processor count by creating a user.cfg file in the game’s main folder and using these commands. The config below is for quad-cores with Hyper Threading (4 cores, 8 threads). You can change these values to your liking:

    Thread.ProcessorCount 4
    Thread.MaxProcessorCount 4
    Thread.MinFreeProcessorCount 0
    Thread.JobThreadPriority 0
    GstRender.Thread.MaxProcessorCount 8"
