what's your gpu? turn up your graphics settings to take some of the load off the cpu, but yeah, it's normal, this game actually utilizes hardware.

it does the samething to be because the game refuse to use my rtx 3080, check your gpu usage.

Gpu usage is about 98%

I have same CPU and game uses 3% of my CPU and 60% of my 7900 xtx 60/ultra. 100-120 fps in ultra I have 100% GPU and still only 3-5% cpu. So very light on the CPU but strong performance

I have an 8700k and a 3080ti and at maxed settings in 1080p (with no frame cap) I get 80-90% cpu usage and 90-100% gpu 90-140 fps depending on the area

So maybe this is expected, everything maxed at 1440p, i get 90-100% usage, gpu same fps as you. But no other game have this behavior so i was worried about that

yeah, its because most games don't properly utilize hardware these days, it's such a rare occurrence that people think something is wrong when a game actually does use hardware fully.

if you have DLSS and/or Variable rate shading on, turning those off might lower cpu usage a bit, at a cost of a small percentage of frames

I have them off. Dont know if this game utilizes hardware properly or not. I dont think that cpu for this game need that much power.

For me in this game
Settings ultra
1440p
RTSO on
Dlss quality
FPS capped @140
5950x 40%
3080ti 19% - 97% (GPU fluctuates a lot depending on areas, corridor vrs Atrium, amount of enemy's, parts of game with large views, can definitively be improved on.
Will be interesting to see what the patch brings with "Added performance improvements" & if it stabilises the GPU usage & helps people suffering bad stutters.

Which performance Patch do you mean, the patch is already out ....

Benim i5 12400f rx6700xt oyun 100 cpu kullanıyor gow oyunuda böyle başka oyunda olmuyor sorunlu oyun galiba?

Sometimes at 1440p my 7800x3D processor is loaded up to 100%, but then the load drops again to 50%

At 1440p my 7900x3D was loaded up to 100 watts of 125 max. Usage percent does not mean that much on this CPU since it is boosting cores. Graphics configuration doesn't matter, even RT on/off.

It's a shader building for sure. Just set a shader cache max size to unlimited.
