Game is using a ton of GPU performance?

[Mirror]

This game isnt Cyberpunk or Crysis 3. So can someone explain why its using almost 100% of an RTX 4070 TI? Is there a performance problem or a setting I need to change to fix this?

Same here. Wildly revs up my GPU despite the game being miles short of graphics that should.

Yeah, its bonkers. Not exactly sure why, but I would really love a fix to this. I dont want to play due to the weird over use, i feel like it will break my gpu and that is not worth it for this game.

Hm, that's weird... I have the RTX 4080 with serious OC (PNY XLR8 + Custom OC) and it's running very relaxed at 3440x1440 with everything cranked to Epic and DLSS/Upscaling disabled.

soon as i close the game it goes from 97% usage to 0%. So its definitely this game and I think I am just going to get rid of it and move on to others games that dont have this glitch/issue.

RTX 4070ti is just overpriced card.

[Homer Morisson]

Welp, either it's 4070 specific, or mebbe your specific 4070 isn't very good, but whatever...

Definitely not true either way that the game overly taxes all GPUs.

UE5 is incredibly demanding and performance doesn't improve or decrease linear. Lumens( UE5 form of RT) is very demanding.

A similar story with the GPU being overloaded by 100%. In the game, the picture is nice, but not so much that it heats up the GPU so much... HP OMEN i7 11800H + RTX 3070 + 32 RAM 3200Mhz (DDR4) Very hot GPU!!!

Try to limit a fps in nvidia control panel to 60.

Unreal 5 for ya.

Update:

Actually got misled myself here... my 4080 is indeed also running at 97% - 98% Load constantly, just didn't notice as it is still running utterly noiselessly... guess PNY outdid themselves with the cooling solution and that my new case cooling design really does the trick, heh.

So yes, hereby confirmed that the massive GPU load happens on 4080 as well, albeit keep in mind that I'm running the game with every single setting cranked to Epic, no Upscaling of any kind, natively at UWQHD.

So i was watching my friends streaming this game and he is on a 4090. its pushing it to basically 100% with an insane load on the GPU, however the visuals don't really connect with the heavy GPU requirement.

It sounds like this game just has an extremely unusual heavy load on the GPU

Nah, you should all get comfortable with Unreal Engine 5 games overloading the GPU. It's a powerful engine, but extremely hard to optimise.

I would imagine it's because it's 3D and due to the near-isometric perspective, and high res textures plus lots of lighting sources, you get a huge area of the map in the camera space at once, thus it's really pushing the lighting and AO calculations for that many interactions at once.

Definitely something that could -- and should(!) -- be better optimized.

I have a RTX 2080 Ti. This game is making the fans on my GPU go crazy. They get so loud that i'm waiting for it to just lift my PC into the air and fly off. I remember this happened with Hogwarts also. And then one day the game was patched and that didn't happen anymore.
