Do you have low CPU usage?
Do you have low CPU usage?
Hey everyone, I'm noticing something weird in my gaming setup. When I play games that use a lot of CPU power, my graphics card is 100% used while my processor only shows up to about 26% to 31%. My BIOS is actually updated and the CPU temperatures never get above 60 degrees Celsius. Here are my specs: an RTX 3070, an Intel i5-12600K, two sticks of 16GB RAM from Corsair running at 3600MHz, a B660M-A motherboard (I had to buy it cheaper because the new one was too expensive), and all games are on an external Samsung SSD. I tested this on an internal drive and there was no difference in performance. UserBenchmark showed up also. Any help would be awesome!
Yes, I am getting about 40FPS in games like CS:GO when multithreading is on and the CPU isn't being used much. The same settings gave me around 120-200fps average back on an i7 9700f with a 2070. I'm wondering if something is wrong or if my PC just needs fixing
Is this thing already made for you or a kit? The XMP setting isn't there, so userbenchmark says it's using a lot of software bloat and slowing down the CPU because of high background tasks. Everything here feels like a poorly configured pre-built laptop.
