so yesterday i decided to reinstall the witcher 3 and mess around, id been playing outlast and watch dogs 2 but noticed that my performance was terrible for some reason and had been for couple weeks i hadnt done anything about it do to me getting sucked into overwatch which could run at 60 on a potato. with the witcher typically id get about 70-90 frames at all times even in cities and then after the first install i was dipping hard into the 40s no matter where i was toping out at 55 ive read people saying on forums that thats just how the game is but ive had it running perfectly and seen multiple videos of people with lower tier hardware getting much better performance.
i was so mad i whipped my whole hdd and reinstalled my os and every driver but it still performs terrible after a 2nd download. i just got finished clean uninstalling my graphics driver in safe mode and reinstalling.
while set to lowest settings the cpu utilization stays around 80% and 50c while at highest its between 80-90% never reaching full yield and not generating worse frames i know the i5 is bottle necking but it shouldnt be this bad.
specs:
msi armor gtx 1080 oc
gigabyte z170 sli
i5 6500 3.2 ghz
8gbs ddr4 3.2ghz
windows 7
any advice or help would be greatly appreciated.
