99% GPU Usage

[Happy]

Anyone else experiencing 99% GPU usage? I have 3070 and my gf 1070 and the game takes 99% of our GPU while playing, which is unacceptable. The only way to fix that, is to cap the frames at 60, which isn't ideal either.

Uhh, 99% GPU usage is ideal, if it was any less that means you have a CPU bottleneck

Edit: or undemanding game

99% GPU usage is actually good.

If you dont cap frames its pretty normal to have a high gpu usage....

What you explained is exactly what is expected... Your GPU is working at its full power to get as much FPS as possible. If you cap the FPS to 60 then of course the GPU will not be working at its full power to reach 60FPS.

thinking that something is "unacceptable" and something needs a "fix" while you are the one that doesnt know how a Computer works.

So you are telling me, my 3070 needs to be running at high temps and 99% to run the game at 120 frames? That makes absolutely no sense and I run other games capped at 144 full ultra that are way more demanding and the gpu runs at around 60-80%.

I like how specific "other games" is.

LOL bro, don't embarass yourself even further. Go read a book or two.

Literally ALL the games I played. That goes from Battlefield, CODs, Rainbow Six, Cyberpunk etc. etc. No games take 99% of GPU. This is not normal, whatever you guys say, I know how my GPU acts with all more demanding games and this is the first game that takes so much of my GPU.

He has capped the game and the GPU is going crazy? I dont think that is normal.

Hmm I am not sure you understand his question, the only game it happs is this one in which his GPU goes under 99% load and goes crazy. I dont think that is normal as it doesnt happen to me! I get %60 with my 3070

Use Riva Tuner/Nvidia Control Panel to cap the fps at maybe 90 for an example? More FPS and not 100% GPU usage

You need to read the OP again... he says he "fixes" the issue by capping to 60.

If you get bottlenecked by the CPU then your GPU won't reach 99% usage as the CPU will be holding it back. Or you simply haven't noticed the GPU reaching 99% usage before, it's actually normal and to be expected that it reaches such usage with uncapped fps.
