[SOLVED] High CPU usage when playing a game.

[Super6030]

I just built a new system and for some reason whenever I launch hearts of iron and get in a game the cpu usage goes to 95%-100%. The cpu is a ryzen 5 2600x. I’ve tried swapping the CPU into an old system and it worked fine and I also put a Ryzen 5 3600 into the new system and it had the same problem.

Hello there!!
Are you playing at 1080p? If you are I'm not suprised at 1080p you are more CPU bottlenecked. What games are you exactly playing?

Im playing Hoi4 at 1080p, however when I put the Ryzen 5 2600x in my system and ran it at 1440p it worked well so I’m not sure if that’s it.

I'm not aware of the game, but it's as I predicted at 1440p and 4k you are GPU bottlenecked and that's the case with most of the games so yea Nothing to worry about
