2 560 ti gtx sli, i5 2500 k really low GPU usage

Post » Wed May 16, 2012 12:51 pm

The game is running great, and I am know I am being nitpicky, but I am getting average 30 to 40% GPU usage while playing the game (even had it go los at 19%). I know people say its a CPU bottleneck, but I have a i5 2500k overclocked to 4.6 (8 gigs of DDR3 1866 mhz RAM). I really don't see any fps drop unless I am looking in a certain direction in some of the town. Is this a driver issue, game issue, or do I have something wrong on my comp? I have the new beta drivers installed and such, and SLI is on. I was wondering if any one else is experiencing this issue? Or as of right now is there a fix to this issue.

Its the games engine, just get used to it. Its a console port, a poor one at that. It is not designed to handle all the extra power a PC can have. I do not have that extreme of a PC and its only using 1/4 of its resources. The supposed bottleneck, the CPU is only being used to 37% of its capacity. Trust me, i could be getting much better frame-rates but because this game is poorly optimized for PCs it is not making very good use of what i have at all.
