Poor frame rate and minimal GPU activity.
While using FSX, I kept FPS unlimited but noticed low performance stats—GPU at 50%, CPU at 30%, RAM at 14%. Why isn’t my PC utilizing its full capacity? The setup includes an i7-6700K at 4.8GHz, 32GB RAM, and a GALAX GTX 980 Ti.
I don't have real-time access to system updates, but you can check your GPU's driver by visiting the manufacturer's website or using system settings.
Check the Task Manager for CPU core usage. The game may not be optimized to use all cores. In a similar case, my performance was around 16-20% CPU and 20% GPU, even with a GTX 1070. It turned out the game only needed one core, and my low FPS came from insufficient cores. After overclocking, my FPS improved significantly. I know your system has a 6700K, which should handle modern games well, but I’m just sharing this observation.
Absolutely, Flight Simulation is renowned for its complex and challenging coding. That's the most impressive thing you'll encounter.
