I've been experiencing a lot of performance issues in many different games for a while which has led me to search for a solution. In games I have excellent ping but the performance doesn't match the specs of my PC. Hit reg issues, fps spikes, and a general feeling like I am always behind what is really going on in the game compared to everyone else has left me very frustrated.
I've taken to trying a whole host of miscellaneous fixes from reinstalling drivers, doing a clean install of windows, and defragging my HDD to tweaking BIOS settings. Nothing's worked.
Just recently I've started monitoring my hardware and found what I think is probably causing my problems:
1) During gameplay (currently just tested on BF1) my CPU usage is constantly at 100%
2) My GPU load (monitored by GPU-Z) is also very erratic. It's constantly spiking up and down anywhere from 1% to 100% constantly. It could be at 100% one second and the next down to 1%.
System Specs:
Asus H170-Pro {CSM} Mobo
Intel i5-6500 @ 3.2 CPU
Asus Rx 470 GPU
Crucial DDR4 RAM @ 2400 (8 Gb)
EVGA 750 G2 PSU
THEY ARE ALL NEW PARTS TOO (Within 3 months old)
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
