100% GPU?

[Wehzy]

How do i fix this? I don't think this game is supposed to be THAT GPU heavy.

Also please fps limit 144.

Turn on full vsync (yes, it only locks to 60...).

Without vsync the game is pushing as many frames as possible. That means that your GPU is working as hard as possible all the time (which results in 99% GPU load).

It has helped on my setup with the exact same problem.

I did that, but it still like 95%. Im getting 144 all the times.. but that shouldn't be an issue. On CS:GO or overwatch i never reach 100% GPU load even when my FPS are over 300..

You want 100% gpu load. Only way to reduce that is to turn down your graphics settings..

Reason why CS:GO / Overwatch are like that, is because either your game settings are low / it's cpu bound, or optimization isn't the best.

You can limit FPS in game, or thru the control panel / turn on V-Sync.
Don't really see the problem with it being 100% though, gives you best performance anyways.

No i don't want 100% GPU, it gets really hot and it doesn't go down at all.
Uh no, i play OW on ultra settigs and CSGO is cpu heavy. I heard many times on this forum that RoR shouldn't be using that much GPU.

@kairefeare
Having you GPU under 100% load all the time causes much more heat to produce. If your GPU is older the thermal paste might have lost their effectiveness, or the fans might be full with dust.
If that is the case GPUs will downclock themselfs to prevent overheating. This can be the cause for FPS drops if your GPU can barely archive 60 fps under "normal" conditions and helped me very much.
With full vsync I get 60 fps with a 70% GPU load while without full vsync my fps is generally worse than 60 fps since it thermal throttles my GPU.

pc currently being fixed rn so i had to use laptop, but i runs like S*** after a game ready driver update(before it was fine), even though its on optimal settings. tried vsync and fps cap and its still on 8 - 11 fps, any suggestion?

The game indeed overuses/overheats the GPU. Compared to other games with much better graphics, like Monster hunter world, Apex legends and TW warhammer 2, ROR 2 seems to always use your gpu to full, even when minimised.

don't know whats going on with these guys but it worked perfectly for me, I went from 100% usage to 44%

Edit; I'm using a 60hz monitor, so if you have a higher refresh rate you probably had less dramatic results.
