CPU utilization

[ッ]

Hi everyone. Am I the only one who has a 100% CPU load after starting a match in The Finals game?

[Rhila]

always CPU 100% for me, capping FPS can help with this issue.

here how to cap your FPS

cap it little bit under the min FPS you get in big fights, if you get around 160fps then cap it at 140fps and you will be fine.

Unreal engine 5 uses all cores, so yes, 100% CPU utilization with uncapped FPS is guaranteed.

While you're waiting for fixes :
Use Nvidia Profile Inspector to cap your frames
& In the game's graphical options turn down EFFECTS to low

There will be no fix, as Rhila already said, this is intended.

If you're thermal throttling it's about time you opened up your pc and cleaned it out.

No, only on weaker CPU's that are paired with fast GPU's, or just weak CPU's in general.
Or actually, the higher your fps goes the higher your CPU usage will be.
My 13600k doesn't go higher than 50 % when getting 120-160 fps, because the GPU is maxed out.
However a hexacore like 5600x will probably be maxed out when the fps is 90 or more.
And probably won't get much more than 90 fps.

The thing is that I have already limited the fps to 100, but it did not really help to solve the problem with CPU utilization, lower graphics settings do not fix the situation at all.

This is not thermal throttling when the 1% lows were twice as high in open beta
They just temporarily removed Directx11 mode

then that's not a cpu utilisation issue

lowering the graphics settings will add more load on CPU, try to cap your FPS very low like 60fps just for testing, if didn't help then just watch your CPU temp and forget about the utilization, the temp should be lower than 90.

Okay, well, thanks for your help.

you are welcome, and you are right FPS cap do not help too much with CPU load % but it helped me with the temp, before it reached 90c but after FPS cap max temp was 82c.

I am using a 5600x and RX 6700xt and I can get steady 165 FPS at 1080p, High, FSR 2 balanced, no Raytracing, but yeah, it gets steady 100% CPU usage. Wild.

I have a good cooler, my CPU averages at 70C when playing this game, but I'd not want to keep my CPU utilization at 100% for long periods of time, especially when I'm just gaming.

No bro i have a rx 6700xt with i5 12400 and i cant get even a 120 fps im staying around 90 to 100 it most and i but everything on low settings and do everything to make my cpu free to just this game but still my gpu on 30 or 40% but the cpu on 100% it's annoying
