GPU maxed out

[Rager]

Running OMD3 maxes out my 3080Ti, task manager GPU is pinned at 100% and I can hear the fans spinning up. I've set vsync on and I still see the problem, I don't see this problem with any other game, Killing floor 2 for example sits around 30% on my GPU. Seems to me there's some sort of bug with OMD3. It matters more because of energy usage, my PC running OMD3 consumes over 600 Watts of power, yet only 300 Watts when running killing floor 2.

Anyone else seeing this ? any chance there could be a fix or a work around ?

I've only got a GTX 1660 SUPER, but that's never been a problem on older games like this one until I just loaded up OMD3 for the first time and the game stutters like crazy, during cutscenes, menus, gameplay, whatever. Didn't check if it was a GPU or CPU issue, but it's making the game unplayable. My mouse "sticks" in place then dashes across the screen to catch up, rinse & repeat. Only other time this has happened was CIV6 after a patch -- other players reported the same problem, and it persisted until the next patch fixed it.

Setting the graphics quality in OMD3 to Med seemed to calm things down a little, my monitor is 165Hz but I've capped it in OMD3 to 120fps which didn't really help. I have the latest nvidia drivers, my system is fully updated. As I said Killing floor 2 which has reasonable graphics detail doesn't stress my system at all, so I'd expect OMD3 to be not hugely more demanding really. The default graphics quality was set to 'Ultra' which based on the performance of a 3080Ti would be expected. So I'm still saying OMD3 has some sort of graphic engine bug, it can't be a FPS type problem seeing as I have that limited in the nvidia control panel, so perhaps it's something to do with texture size or textures per second.

with a very old cart graphic i have 60 fps on omd2 3 fps on omd3 caps at 60 it s enought to play

[Rager]

you can play with 3 fps ? that sounds impossible

[cricri]

no i cant so i buy my 3050 ;)

i play on 144hz on my 3060ti. I have msi after burner limiting the power and temps. Usually i'm at 188 watts.

[cricri]

3050 limit a 60 fps 80 watts

I run windowed for convenience, 3070, no v sync, uncapped framerate, ultra everything. average about 40% gpu util/ 45 watts @ a cool 48c.

I've just turned all the graphics settings down to med or low to keep it from bankrupting me from a electricity bill, seems a bit crazy for a 3080Ti but I'm still having fun with OMD3.

Anyone managed wave 51 and 13 millions points on the first map endless ? I can't seem to beat my high score.

Its really not that taxing of a game graphically. I just dont think the game was super optimized.

I have a 2080 and 0 issues running it on high.

I have no issues on my 3080Ti but if I set to the default of ultra settings my GPU gets stressed, with most settings on med or low my GPU runs at about 30%
