nProtect uses 56% of my cpu

[Corinarh]

What the actual f&ck now i know why my framerate drops so low after 10min after i play the match.

[WastingSanity]

My PC performs just fine with it.

[Tsifrokayf]

Are those who advise him to upgrade the processor completely stupid? ok, I have the same problem on the R7 7700X, and this crooked anti-cheat is currently consuming about 50%, despite the fact that I haven’t launched the game

y'all heard about Apex got a RCE vulnerability exploit and was hacked live during tournament?

now that nprotect are being used in a widely popular game, if someone managed to find a critical vulnerability in that garbage anti-cheat, it's f4king over.

nProtect =stutterfest and less fps. Remove it asap

You've got a problem with your PC, the problem isn't with nProtect. I'm running the game right now and nProtect is only using between 0.3% and 0.6% of my CPU most of the time, the highest it's gone is about 1%.

nProtect IS the sole problem in this game. I did all the trickery with the HW and softwares on my PC but kept crashing. After I white listed the entire nProtect folder in the AV and put my PC on DMZ I dont crash playing solo at all while before I crashed every single game. I almost have 50 hours on this game but only reached lvl18 because of that. Still crashing if I play with others. The crashes are coming from 3 sources. Either the Vmem is not enough for the settings or too much CPU running in the background or loosing connection to the servers. Only the first one is up to the user the other 2 is caused or elevated by this AC wanna be kernel level malware.

So you don't think I get 240 fps?

Well it's hard to believe when some one with insane setup can barely reach 120 that constantly dip below 100

Well, you can assume it's an issue if you like but I just tested it. Causes no crashes, uses very, very little of my CPU. Don't see how it's the "sole problem" if it's not causing ANY issues...

Exactly, I've actually seen nProtect shut off completely when I'm not in a match so CPU use is zero, goes up to about 0.6% to 1% at most when in a match. Not sure how people can think that nProtect is eating up 50+% of their CPU when the game hits 50-60% for most of us. They don't even have 50%+ of their CPU power left to be used if the game's taking more than 50. Something doesn't add up... and it's probably the OP's math. I bet it's the game *AND* nProtect using 56%, not nProtect.

[SnowMew]

Idling in my ship Gameguard is using 1.1%. Helldivers2.exe is using 25%. CPU is a 5800X3D.

Dropbox.exe is using more resources than Gameguard. Weirdness.

With common sense browsing and download habits, you really shouldn't need a third party AV. Given that this DRM is kernel level, I would not at all be surprised if it is your AV butting heads with it. May be worth uninstalling it and trying again. And honestly, Windows Defender is a fairly decent antivirus.

Yeah, you don't need a third party anti-virus at all. Windows Defender and the Windows Firewall are sufficient protection unless you're out there doing things you shouldn't be doing.

If it uses so much there is something wrong with the whole system. It barely scratch 2% on my old 4790K and around 0,5% on my main Pc that holds a 9900K.
