Hi, I tried playing C:S for the first time recently. Everything seems normal—GPU fans aren’t spinning, temperature stays steady around 59°C, and utilization is about 25%. It doesn’t seem to improve, which is unusual since the fans used to spin during gameplay. The game feels very laggy and slow, especially when starting a new city. Plus, the GPU temperature hovers near 59°C most of the time. I’ve looked into this before but couldn’t find a clear solution. I’m running around 12-17 FPS. A screenshot of the stats is attached to the top left. Do you think something’s wrong? Any advice would be really helpful!
The frame rate is fixed at 30 frames per second, likely for VSync synchronization or to cap the output speed.
It functioned properly after installation. This appears to be a fresh problem. Also, I’m confused about why my GPU isn’t being used effectively.
I jumped from the same CPU to the 5600x and my 3060 gained around 30% more performance in most titles due to bottlenecking. If with your CPU C S was working at much better FPS prior? Then yeah I admit that's an issue. Did you recently update the GPU driver? Revert to the last known driver you used.
