Question i5 7600k vs BF5 continous 100% cpu usage and low fps

[Tubenu]

Hello everyone i have huge problem that im bothering for a few days.
It all started when I first installed battlefield 5. From the first time i have fps problems cant get more than 60+ fps on ultra. Changing video settings to low gives me even less performance around 35-45 fps. Check many different setting so i think settings is not a main problem here.
Important : My friend have the same cpu as me with lower timings and his pc is pretty similar overall and he runs bf5 smooth on ultra with 70 fps + on bigger resolution. That's why i know theres something wrong couse he can easily play.

Here's my specs and other info

CPU : i5 7600k ( overclocked atm 4.8 Ghz 1.4V) - tested 5ghz same result at the game (cpu usage 100% and fps lags)
Graphic card : asus rog strix 1070 (stock)
RAM : G.SKILL AEGIS 16GB (2X8GB) DDR4 3000MHZ CL16 (dual channel)
Motherboard : Gigabyte z270 k3 gaming
Windows 10 v 1903
Cooler : Dark rock 3
power supply : some 600W be quiet

I was thinking about power supply for cpu or something in windows which blocking my cpu performence hard.
For additional questions I'm here to help.

Are you both playing multiplayer? Is your friend absolutely sure he has an i5 7600k? BF5 is known to saturate quad core CPU’s and struggle to hold 60fps.

 

[Tubenu]

Yes im 100% sure and know that 4 cores and 4 threads may couse troubles. It is what it is im surpirsed for this huge difference between us.

 

[sizzling]

Do you have more background cpu usage? How much cpu is used when just at Windows desktop on both pc’s? It could be other resources using a higher % of cpu.

 

[Tubenu]

Can't really tell you how much couse as you know cpu jumps alot with usage in idle but i guess around 20-40 %.
I can tell u more precise when i back home.

20%-40% is excessively high if just at idle on Windows desktop. You need to find out what it hogging cpu resources.

 

[Tubenu]

Any ideas what should i look any programs to detect it or just task manager?

 

[Tubenu]

When i back home i will analyze everything : idle usage lower core voltage etc and give feedback

 

[Tubenu]

Sorry for mistake. While idle my cpu usage is about 10%. Most of time lower than 10% so i guess its all good in this case 🙁

Did you run anti virus to make sure there are no viruses or malware? if nothing else works you can always do a clean install of Windows will all the latest updates and drivers and see if that fixes it.

 

[Tubenu]

System reinstall is my finality. I'll scan entire pc using windows defend is that okey?

 

[Tubenu]

PC is clean after scan 🙁 Any ideas what should i do next?

Your friend have the same gpu as well? Bf5 is brutal for a quad core.

Grahpic card is : Palit RTX 2070 super jet stream 8gb
But thats not the point i know this card is way better than mine but please explain me this yt movie :

How they manage to play this with 60 fps + and have cpu usage during game about 70%? I constantly got 100%...

 

[Tubenu]

I'll try to reinstall BF5 couse i don't know what else could help. If noone got any idea what can i check more I'll reinstall windows and hope this one help fix this.

 

[Tubenu]

System reinstall didn't work. Any ideas what can i check/do ?

I have the same problem

Let's see what the suspect 7600K's CPU-Z/bench single/multi-thread scores are? (My own 7700K at 4.7 GHz scores 554/2729 by comparison) (note the listed RAM speed in CPU-Z as well)

(I'd look at HWmonitor just to confirm what 4.8 GHz clock speeds maintained during the test, and, note the temps...)

Is BF5 played in Direct X 11 or 12 mode for systems being compared?

Perhaps some Windows update might have botched something/sapped performance; are you able to roll back/restore to a point several days earlier to compare? (WInver should probably reflect at least 1909, no sense wasting a lot of time troubleshooting issues with an older version, as different updates can affect different versions/drivers differently...)

What are your CPU temperatures while playing games and while idle?

Old thread. My suspicion is the quad being the problem and the op was searching for different answers. Quads + BF5 = no go.

Again with the old threads... I should start looking at the last posted date before I post as well.

I happened to find this thread because I have a similar issue. My specs are i5-7600k, 16gb (2x8) 3200mhz ram, gtx1080ti.

In game I get 70-85 for at first but then drop to the 40s. I've tried custom cfgs, I've upper the resolution scale and habe my settings on ultra,

When checking task manager im at 100% cpu, and my GPU hovers at 10%.

I understand if you say that 4C4T is not enough, but a 6600 is set as the minimum spec requirement by dice. If my cpu is better and the game is near to unplayable, there's a problem. Additionally, how come people with much better cpus like even the i9 face the same issue? Doesn't add up.

Is there anything else that I could try? Maybe OCing to 4.5ghz?
