My GPU is now running at 99%

[GamerR3aper]

Hi everyone I hope I'm not the only but I'm using a i9 13900KF with a 4060ti 32 gig ram ddr5 and since the latest update even the starting menu makes my GPU run at 99% if i started the game I used to run all highest graphic setting at a flawless 144fps with barely 40% gpu usage and now if i get 30-40 it's good plus i get 99% GPU without even a dip, tried reverting the Geforce driver but issue persist, dropped everything to 1080p and low issue persist! Any other ideas or it<s a known issue and it's going to be fixe ?

Thanks gamers and have a great day !

ok that does help my anxiety :p but still i dont think all that is normal ?
or i'm I complaining for nothing actually i cant even play the game as soon as i fight someone it's a slide show

Give it 10 mins ish, load into the game and warp around a bit then quit to the menu then continue again.
Seems like the game has caching issues and asset loading priority issues at the moment.
UE5 is a resource hungry engine and these devs needs to optimize some things still but you should be running the game just fine.
I know its a pain in the ass but if you didnt use DDU in safe mode id suggest you wipe with it then install fresh drivers and wipe the nvidia cache when you do then let it build the cache back again. Try the early sept drivers. You can go forward with an install, but backwards always with DDU in safe mode followed by a cache wipe and rebuild

Thanks you’re the GOAT i'll try that !

So question. Your GPU is at 100%, what is your CPU at?

Before today GPU 40% CPU 10-20% depending of the area now GPU 98-99 and CPU 25-40 but all other games I play I didn’t see any changes

[GamerR3aper]

I might just wait just played for 15-20 min and didn’t see any improvement there is probably going to be another patch soon so finger crossed

Since its more a cpu dependent game and your gpu is maxing I feel like it might just be some driver corruption and cache problems.
I highly advise wiping them in safe mode with DDU, rebooting into windows, installing the drivers, rebooting again tyen following the original steps in the first post again.
If that doesnt work I have no idea but Im bout to crash so good luck

I have a 4070ti with the i5-13600k 32gb ddr5 and averaging 60 to 80 fps at 4k. Most settings are at ultra except global illumination is at high. Switching that to ultra drops me 10 fps. DLSS is set at quality. Your CPU is much better but is probably bottlenecked by your GPU a little.

You probably had DLSS3 Frame Gen on before and now you don't cause they patched it out (it was causing crashing issues). Though unless you were using extremely aggressive DLSS settings + frame gen + output res of like 1080p I don't see how a 4070 ti could be performing the way you claim it was at max settings.

If you want Frame Gen back, right click the game in steam, go to properties, and add this to the launch options:
-DLSSFG

Then turn it on in the options. But again, it was reportedly causing a lot of crashes so that's the first thing you should get rid of if you're crashing.

My tips for you with this game: If you want a lot of frames but don't want to sacrifice eye candy, just play at high. It still uses all the same bells and whistles as ultra, just slightly dialed back but they're far more optimized values. Tweak up specific settings if certain visual elements bug you. Also make sure you're using DLSS upscaling. At 1080p, you'll probably just want DLAA, but at 1440p, quality mode looks pretty great still, and at 4k you can go down to performance mode with it still looking really solid.

Also, there's nothing wrong with your GPU being at 99% usage. It's a good thing, actually, it just means that your CPU is capable of keeping your GPU fed in that game. Though the best way to play games is with a framerate cap (on a gsync capable screen, use vsync otherwise) with enough headroom to not drop below the target the vast majority of the time. Consistency matters more to our brains than raw frames, even with VRR technologies like gsync.

Thanks for that I’m at work right now I’ll try to play with those setting when I get home and try not to focus on the fact that I see 99% gpu I’m new too pc and all my other games it’s barely went over 50% even on LOTF before the patch so I didn’t want to break anything :p thanks everyone I’ll to keep you posted !

Check your framerate limit. It is possible that due to the patches it got changed to unlimited. If this is the case, changing it to what ever your prefered refresh rate is should limit your gpu usage.

[WeylandYutani]

I can confirm that the latest nvidia driver killed the performance on my rtx 2070 super and I reverted back to 537.58.

[AILAD]

In game you want your GPU to be at 99%.

But if you're talking about the menu, the game takes 10 or so minutes when you first start it to load shaders or something, during which your CPU usage should be higher than normal.

But in game 99% GPU is completely normal. If it goes considerably lower, like 70%, that means you're probably CPU limited or facing some other issue, which is not what you want.

99% usage is what you want. Why would you want your gpu to be less utilised?

If you are not having any issues with the performance then don't worry about it.

Ignore all the 'expert' advice in this thread.

Yeah I get that but the thing is I’m getting a lot of performance issue, before the patch I was running 1440p and high everywhere ( said max earlier my bad) motion blur off and dlss was at balance frame where cap at 144 and it was running some what flawlessly , yesterday did everything that is writing here even a clean install delete everything from the files people told me played for 20 ish minutes and no improvement. I now understand that the 99 gpu isn’t a bad thing if it’s stays at a good temperature level but still had 144fps and if I’m not mistaken my 98% frame where arround 138 so not a lot of dips and now if I get 30-40 with the same setting it’s good

[Kaizen]

Just do the DDU wipe in Safe Mode, not in windows, and go back to driver 537.34 then wipes the cache and the upipelinecache again then let it rebuild in game.
Theres an order of operations.
I only told you to try and wipe the caches first because it takes all of 13 seconds.
Rolling back via control panel isnt gonna solve it.
If doing this doesnt resolve the issue ill be surprised.

[WeylandYutani]

I have to revert my previous statement it's not the driver it's the latest update. My game is almost a slide show and it's not the performance you can still clearly see that my game is running in 60 fps yet with massive slowdowns caused by something.

Honestly it's not something you can fix. They have been firing out updates every day and every day performance gets worse for some people. I am in the same boat as you, performance getting worse by the patch. Reinstalling your drivers over and over is not going to fix a thing.

Except it can and has for several people who actually took the time to do it.
So he can listen to me, whos built PCs for 30 years and dealt with video cards since gefore256 and voodoo, and try it for a chance.
Or you, who knows nothing, is too lazy to troubleshoot and would rather just complain than do the things a PC user does when he needs to.
