CPU temp
Is anyone else having their cpu staying in the high 70s to 80s? I’m on a 5800x3d

to all have problem like me go to edit power plan click change advanced power setting and then go to processor performance boost mode setting to disabled. try to play again thank me later. you can use this to all games high cpu usage. enjoy happy holloween.

same for me too. i have a 13700k and it has crashed about 4 times in 6 hours. temps usually between 75c to 85c but will go into 90c but if there too long it crashes. i keep reading on google that 100c is fine for my cpu but im not really sure now

I have a 5800x3d and it is cooking in this game, 90c. Need a fix.

Remember Space Marine 2 confirmed it can be the game stressing the CPU too much, as reflected by their patch and notes that did exactly that, fix abnormally high cpu usage

Either modern game devs are just poor or the engines of this generation are garbage. Those are the the only options. How is it possible that GAMES that look mediocre push most powerful CPUs on the market like the 5800X3D 7800X3D to max temp and load literally consuming more power than the GPU, which is chilling at 50% in the meantime?

We are observing this over and over in the past year or two with every next release. It's like the games are rendering on the CPU and not the GPU.

You boot up Arkham Knight from 10 years ago pump it to 8K and your PC is 70% load while the game looks better than current garbage...

Look at this Benchmark. Game is pushing R7 7700X to 90C at 70fps !??!? Not 170, just SEVENTY :steamthumbsdown:

Just to mention that "Frostbite" engine used for Veilguard is from 2008.
Compare how Battlefield 1,3,4,5 & Star Wars Battlefront 2 work and look on the same engine and you will find out which of the two options is the root cause.

Yeah mine was going to 69 compiling shaders but in game its around 58 to 62 but it doesn't have any feature to limit the game while its in the background so ive forced it via nvidia control panel.

Same here, 100% CPU usage continuously, this is not normal :S

Best fix, learnt from Space Marine 2 is:

Not disabling cpu ultra boost at power settings, cause it lowers temps but also decreases performance a lot (for many).

Instead, lower maximum cpu energy from 100% at max, to 95 or even 99%.

My temps gone from 90 to 58 XDD

Same performance at 2k ultra on 3060ti / i5 11600.

Disabling cpu boost lowered my fps (capped at 90l

It's not, but it actually is the norm nowadays. When games for the "modern audience" see a CPU, they USE it ALL even at 60fps.

Can't find "processor performance boost mode" In the power plan editor all I got is Processor power management , Min processor state, system cooling policy and maximum processor state. Nothing about disabling the boost mode so this doesn't work for everyone unfortunately from the looks of it.

Thank you. From 89 Celsius to now 72 Celsius.

This friggen worked like a charm, though I lowered my minimum to 99% and kept max at 100% and now the CPU temps runs in the 60s like all my other games. Thanks for the tip I shall spread the word! until they fix this like Spacemarines 2 fixed their shii... well If they fix it that is, but this worked great.

Setting "Maximum CPU state" to anything less than 100% means it's no longer going to be able to boost.
So, I'm afraid you are doing the same thing. Unless this game behaves differently to anything else I've seen so far...
hey i have 14700kf and my cpu temp is between 85 and 95 degree and i dont know why i played ghost of tsushima on ultra performance and 4k and the cpu temp is about 70/75 degrees just in dragon age i have high cpu temp any one know why?

CPU temp for me is similar to when I play Cyberpunk and lower than CPU heavy games, like CK3 or Victoria 3. It's within the norm.
