I7 9700K overclocking guide
Hello, your Intel i7 9700K is showing high CPU usage in Cyberpunk 2077 with the RTX 3080, even at 30 FPS. The BIOS lists a max clock speed of 3600 MHz. This setting might be limiting performance—consider adjusting it if possible. Since you're new to overclocking, start by checking your motherboard manual or seeking beginner-friendly guides for safe BIOS tweaks. Your ASUS Z390 Pro motherboard could also provide useful insights.
Regarding in-game performance, check clock speeds and core count. Take a screenshot using CPU-Z while the game is running.
I possess one DDR4 Hyperx 2666 HZ stick, a Noctua NH-U9S, and during the stress test with CPUZ, NZXT CAM displays this result.
