Battlefield 1 - 100% CPU Load

rocketfast · Jul 3, 2018

When i play BF1 the CPU gets to 100% load which makes my game lag. It runs perfect for a few minutes with like 70-80% load 60 fps (v-sync ON). Then it suddenly gets up to 100% and the framerate drops down to 45fps and it does not go back to 60 while the load is still at 100%.

Intel Core i5 4670K
Gigabyte GTX 1060 G1 Gaming 3GB
Corsair Vengeance Pro Red 8GB
Crucial MX300 525GB
Kingston V300 125GB

Things i have tried so far:

Cap fps
disable origin overlay
disable shadowplay
turned on/off v-sync
set power management to maximum performance in nvidia control panel

I have no idea what is going on, can someone help me fix this.

Thank you

The CPU is too weak.

Well, i dont think so. My brother played with a 2500K without any problems.

Also, i did not have these problems before. Its something that i have noticed in the recent months.

You may have to tweak your GPU settings(raise graphical detail, increase anistropic, etc...) to take some stress off of the CPU and put more load onto the GPU.

I'd also recommend closing/disabling any apps you have running in the background that do not need to be.

Did your brother's CPU reach 100% load? Is he using the same graphics card model, display resolution and game settings? Is his CPU overclocked?

What are thermals like before and after lagging? Maybe it's thermal throttling.

Yes, he is using 780, 1920x1080 and game settings was a mix of medium and high, only overclocked from factory.

dudeman509 :

The temps are pretty much the same, around 50 degrees.

I have the settings at ultra. Dont know a another way to take stress off CPU. I did try to close all apps running in the corner of the taskbar but it did not help.

I should also say that these problems occur in multiplayer and not in singleplayer.

Multi-player performance improves with more CPU cores/threads.

I see, well i guess bf1 is very cpu intensive game

The CPU needs to keep track of all 64 players and all of the bullets flying from those 64 players on a multi-player map.

I see that the minimum system requirements for Battlefield 1 specify an i5-6600k. From benchmark comparisons, that CPU does out perform an i5-4670k.

Obviously the game is running on your system... but that is in fact your issue. If you upgrade to a 4790(which is the recommended CPU for this game) or a 4790k, that should resolve your problem.

haha yeah you are right, never thought of that :wahoo:

toshibitsu :

Well i think i have solved this issue, i set the "maximum pre-rendered frames to 1" and now it performs much better. I can not come to a conclution yet, gonna try to play with this a few days and see. But i just played 2 matches with 64 ppl and it went very well.
