Resolution issues addressed.
I’ll begin at the outset: I haven't experienced frame rate issues previously. However, three days ago, I installed an Oculus Rift, and since then, I've encountered problems with low frame rates across various games—including new versions of Modern Warfare and CS:GO. Within CS, I'm seeing 60-80 frames per second. I’ve ensured that all my graphics drivers are up to date, as well as Windows itself. I previously attempted using older GPU drivers without any improvement. I also utilize Intel Quick Sync and MSI Afterburner, yet the issue persists even when running at default settings. I'm becoming increasingly irritated by this extensive troubleshooting process and would appreciate any potential guidance.
Hardware specifications:
Intel i5 4690k (3.5 GHz)
Nvidia 1070Ti
24 GB of RAM
ASUS Z97 Motherboard
P.S. Furthermore, Asus Optimal Performance doesn't function for me; if anyone has a solution, please let me know—it’s never been effective despite previous use. Additionally, regardless of the game I play, my processor consistently reaches 100% utilization—a problem that has existed for a while.
It’s likely that the problem stems from Rift. Attempting to revert to a previous system restore point before Rift’s installation might help. Alternatively, reinstalling Windows is another viable option. Regarding the high CPU usage, I anticipate it will continue to increase. Your processor has four cores and four threads. The trend towards multi-core processors is ongoing, and eventually, you will require a more advanced CPU. Examining whether heat is contributing to the problem could be beneficial, but you’ll ultimately need an upgrade.
Likely, the problem stems from Rift. Attempting to revert to a previous system restore point prior to Rift’s installation could be beneficial. Alternatively, reinstalling Windows is another viable option. Regarding the high CPU usage, that’s a reasonable expectation given your current configuration. It will likely deteriorate over time. You possess a 4 core/4 thread processor, and the trend towards multi-core processing is ongoing. Eventually, you’ll require a more advanced processor. Investigating potential overheating is advisable, but a replacement CPU will ultimately be necessary.
