Hey, I’m looking for ways to lower CPU usage in The Witcher 3. My i5-7600K isn’t overclocked but still hits around 90%. I want to know which settings to change or if there’s a built-in Witcher option. Also, does turning on overclocking actually help reduce usage? Thanks!
It seems unclear about the changes made, but the first line confirms it.
Occasionally I skip through it all and assumed the game started or ended quickly.

In addition to minimizing the number of items visible at once, there aren't many other options. Doing so would require diving into the game's core mechanics and possibly affecting daily life features. :B
90% CPU usage is not a problem by itself unless it correlates with low GPU usage and poor performance, which is unclear from your post. If you ignore the CPU usage percentage, are you still unhappy with how the game is actually running? I doubt there's much you can adjust in the settings to significantly reduce CPU usage. Visual effects are typically part of the GPU's workload, and while occasionally the CPU may be involved there probably aren't many such effects in that game. In fact, turning GPU-reliant settings down may increase your framerate and cause your CPU to stay at a higher workload more often.
