Re: New silent update high cpu usage and fps drop.

You can double your fps by using the frame generation feature from Lossless Scaling app (it's on steam), until a real game fix will come out.

    How do you think we can use frame gen when cpu is running at 100%?..

    I mentioned it above. Even at native resolution without using DLSS, FG or FSR, cpu is running at 90%. Enabling upscale technologies takes the load from gpu and redirects it to cpu and ram and it gets worse.

    The problem is that cpu is running at 90-95% while gpu is running at 50%. There is no need to lower resolution, enable fg or upscale.

    @2smokeTM what do you use to see your cpu usage? If you use the task manager you should know that it is not very accurate. I use msi afterburner and it shows 60-70% cpu usage with 50% gpu usage. When I use the Lossless Scaling app the gpu is used at 80-90% with 130+ fps and the game looks quite smooth without noticeable latency. But that doesn't change the fact that the game is poorly optimized 😔

    Before the update, the 13600k was running at 20% and now it is running at 95-99%. The 4060ti is running at 47% and around 1300mhz. (normally 2850 should work) GPU is 48, CPU is 82 degrees.
    Before the update, GPU was running at 99% and CPU was running at 20%. While I was getting 152 fps in the garage at 1080p ultra native resolution, it is now down to 90, and it drops to 55 during the race. Before the update, it was giving at least 110 fps in the race.
