Title says it all, CPU usage is always at 100% and GPU is at 80-99%. This causes the game's FPS rate to drop from 60+ all the way down to 10, even though I already set the application priorities to "high". CPU is at 50-60°C degrees at full load while the GPU just goes above 60°C degrees, DRAM doesn't go over 80% usage.

my system specs:

I am also playing this on 1080p and running the game on an SSD. I don't have many background processes going on when playing, CPU usage is at 10-15% when idle.



 

Have you tried a clean install? Did you plug your monitor into the graphics card and not the motherboard?

I shaved off some more processes and am left with 3% CPU usage on idle, how do I get it all the way down to 1%? The only thing left that is using CPU is "System interrupts"

1%-5% on idle is ok, windows does many things in background so 1-5 is acceptable.
