Game only using RAM?
So I got a new pc today. And somehow task manager shows this game only using memory, no gpu or cpu lol, both stay at 0,0 or 0,1%
I have tested other games and those use all 3 as normal.
Its not even that the game runs bad, runs well actually but I wonder if anyone knows why this is portrayed incorrectly or what could be wrong. Cause it may be able to run even better if something is not operating as it should.
GPU: RTX4070TI SUper
CPY: I7 14700
Thanks in advance for any reply of someone more knowledgeable than me:)

Maybe our game engine (Unity) is just shocked with your specs :)
It doesn't know how to behave so it acts cautiously...
Or maybe your rig is not even noticing Farmer's Life being run.
On much older machines FL is still quite a resource hog and both CPUs and GPUs feel it.
My gtx1060 shows 90%+ load most of the time, but my i7-9700k shows 20-30% load.

Hahaha...thanks for replying.
Yeah I was running it on a gtx1060 and i7-4770 up until yesterday and it was working hard too.
But I cant imagine the numbers on this new system being correct or that its running how its supposed too, but with my limited knowledge I have done all I can lol.
Btw, absolutely love your game! Havent played aanything else the last two weeks.
Cheers

Okay I take it back, now that the season has changed the game is starting to get some fps drops.
Would probably help if I got the cpu and gpu to help in the fight lol

restart PC after driver install.
Windows Taskmanager bug. Try another tool.

Thank you, I had reinstalled drivers and rebooted, I also checked the activity with an alternative program.
But I have now let it make a log and it did notice some GPU activity, it seems the game drops to completely 0% cpu and gpu if I go to windows with it running. Dont know if that is common but first game I have seen doing that.
So thanks! It was thanks to your comment I let the program make a log to double check:)
Glad its solved although the conclusion is I will have to play this wonderful game on lower settings than I was anticipating :(. Ow well, can live with that.
Cheers

the game Pauses if you unfocus it

But games on pause usually dont stop using cpu and gpu entirely right, could be wrong. At least not the ones I tried until now. But I am no expert:), not even close
