CPU 100% Memory 50% and GPU 10%
For some reason seems like the game is trying to do everything on CPU. CPU is stuck at 100% all times, with very little usage of the GPU on 3D. Memory usage on the GPU is high.

Any suggestions of something I may try?

I am using a RTX 3080 TI with a I7-4770K @ 3.5Ghz and 32GB RAM.

I can barely get 30FPS, and the game hangs 20 seconds everytime I move on the scenery.

Is this really so unplayable on my system specs?

Thanks.

Might cook your PC. If it does, just look for a lawyer.

Yes.

The "hanging" should go away after 30 mins or so when the shaders are all compiled.

But then again, your CPU is 12 years old. Why on earth would you think this can run the game when the *minimum* requirement is Intel Core™ i5-8600? (And minimum here meaning: 30 fps and probably 100% usage.) I have a Ryzen 5600x which is about 3 times as good as your CPU and still have high CPU usage. Upgrade your CPU or you will run in more and more problems further down the line.

this game has AVX bro, it literally like stress testin like PRIME with Avx On our CPUs.. it was super fun 12 hours last night, but fck that i did NOT spent the ammount i spent for my system to stress test it that hard for a crappy 110fps on native 1440p res , and fck that DLSS BS and frame generation added input latency crap too.. I respect more my System investment than their crappy optimizationed game.

I have the same issue, the fps is around 60/80 for me. I have a I7 8700k and a 3070 and 16gb but when my cpu spikes to 100% i get the lag spikes in game bumping me down to around 10 fps sometimes. I have no OC or mobo OC on and cant figure out what the issue is. I get i wont run this game 4k 120fps but i only have it with this game, the game it self worked better for me yesterday then today idk why.

Temps stay around 70/80c range but maybe the cpu is just old and it is time to upgrade at some point but it is really weird that it is only this game and not any other game.

I dunno a single game in the last handful of years where your cpu wouldn't bottleneck your system. That's a weird setup with more money into the gpu unless you were already looking at news cpus, but since you're shocked I'm not sure that's the case.

I turned on accelerated gpu scheduling helped a lot.

Not that many games use Unreal engine 5 yet. Only will get worse with time with this very demanding game engine.

go buy a decent CPU + Mainboard + Ram and throw that ancient thing out otherwise u will not be able to play the game xD....should be knowledge if u could read the system requirements on the store page...

save me money for not buying the game yet i have the 4790k OC at 4.6 gtx 1660 ti will be upgrading later this summer to a i5 12400f with new mainboard.

Unfortunately your Cpu is the culprit here, severe bottleneck. no option other than upgrade cpu mobo and ram.
12th gen or above depending on what you can afford.

u will need a better GPU along with it, because anything under a 30 series will not be able to do you a favor for this game.

Have 3080 & 4090 - unplayable.

The I7-4770K is from 2013. end of discussion
That 4770k is bottlenecking your GPU HARD! You would get 50% more frames if you just upgraded your cpu. Because your cpu can't give your gpu frames to work with.

Better to have a good cpu and worse gpu than bad cpu and good gpu. Because the gpu work is bound by the cpu being able to do work. But when you have a bad gpu you can always lower graphics so more load gets put on cpu and less on gpu giving you more frames.
