Question Gpu Usage 40 - 50% usage while playing forfnite

[EclipseZK]

I was wondering because i usually get stutters in game, my cpu is usually at 90-100% while playing it since it runs at ultimate performance, any idea what todo, any help is greatly appreciated.

My gpu is a 1070 Ti
CPU: i7-7700k

Is your cpu at stock? if not then try to OC it and see if GPU usage goes up. if It does then its a cpu bottleneck I'm guessing you play at 1080p.

Since cpu temps get a little high while playing oc would probably destroy it. I do play at 1920x1080.

A. What temperature does your CPU reach during gameplay?

B. I sincerely doubt overclocking it would "destroy it." CPUs can take a lot of heat for an extended period of time. In modern thin and light laptops, it is not unheard of for i5 and i7 processors to hit almost 100 C when running CPU intensive tasks for a long period of time.

C. If your CPU temps make you uncomfortable, you should upgrade your CPU cooler to give you the headroom to overclock.

For C: I would recommend you just get a newer CPU since i7-7700K is getting a bit old. Not a bad cpu but I wouldn't pair it with a 1070 Ti.

The thing is, if he wants to upgrade his CPU, he's going to need a new motherboard; 8th and 9th gen processors need a 300 series motherboard and 10th gen requires a 400 series. Seeing how he's using a 1070Ti, I'm guessing a $500+ motherboard/CPU combo for 1080p gaming isn't in the cards.

Can't really upgrade, don't have the money for it, i really want a solution to this T_T.

What kind of monitor do you have? What is the model number?
