High CPU usage when playing Destiny 2

[검은 비]

I have really high CPU usage that makes my CPU run anywhere from 70% to 100%. I tried everything from using process explorer and hwinfo trying to find stuff about this problem. The temps on the CPU seems fine at around 30 degrees. It's weird because I can run modern warfare fine. I only noticed when the new season came out and a couple days prior. I was also looking somewhere that it might be the thermal paste has worn off but the temps seems too fine to be the case right? Anyways, any help is appreciated.

CPU: I5-6500
GPU: RX 580

30c is your idle temp. For actual temps use HW Monitor and check after running a demanding game for 15 mins.

Unless you're using a liquid cooler. Liquid takes a lot longer to build heat, so it's better to play for at least 30 minutes on liquid.

And look at the value of the maximum temperature entry.

What's the usage of your GPU during gameplay?

The i5-6500 is a 4C/4T CPU.

Yeah, I ran hwmonitor while I went to one of the planets I have problems with. I let it stay there for a while and the temps don't go past 30-32 degrees.

Nah, I'm using hyper evo 212.

Max temp is also around 30 degrees. I never seen it go past 37 degrees before. As for the GPU, it only uses 50% ish nothing past that for some reason. This is after playing for a while with hwmonitor on.

Search for the max. value. Otherwise you have a cpu-bottleneck.

I'll run a test with hwmonitor again and see what my temps are.

That's idle, max is at the right side of HW Monitor.

So after 15min of having hwmonitor on, these are my CPU temps:

Those are idle max temps.

Run a GAME for 15 minutes. 30c under load is impossible.

I did... I ran Destiny 2 with hwmonitor just now for 15min while doing pvp where my fps suffers most. Should I try switching to modern warfare or something?

You need to open HW Monitor before launching the game and have it open while the game's running, you can't just open HW Monitor after you exit the game.

Yes, do modern warfare. Destiny 2 isn't demanding.

I didn't. I had hwmonitor running for 2 or so minutes before I even launched the game.

All right will do.
