100% CPU Usage, Low GPU Usage Fix

[Fannto]

A lot of Battlefield 2042 PC players are reporting that the game is using 100% of the CPU while the GPU usage is only 5 – 10% or even less. One reason for this issue could be threaded optimization in Nvidia Control Panel. Open Nvidia Control Panel > Manage 3D Settings > Program Settings > select Battlefield 2042 from the list. Scroll down in the options and select “Off” for “Threaded Optimization” and hit apply. This will fix the BF2042 100% CPU usage.

1 year later, BF 2042 still has 100% cpu usage lmao

Its not a bug, your CPU is too slow and bottlenecking the GPU.

what cpu

threaded optimization only works for 2ccd or 2 cpu's systems.
100% usage is normal in 64-128 player games. Especially with vehicles on map.

5-10% gpu usage is like 3-6 fps
there has been errors in monitoring software readings not too long ago because of a Windows update, so update system maybe, & some players say don't use taskmanager
