Hello, I have a problem. I'm playing Warzone 2 but my CPU and GPU are not running at 100%

I get around 40-60 fps in the game, which I think is low for my setup.

Temperatures are cool.

Hey there,

The 1660ti is getting a bit dated now, specially for newer games.

Set up MSI Afterburner OSD to show CPU clockspeed/usage/temps - Also the GPU clocks, usage, temps.

Run HW Monitor along side it, so you can see what's happening on the fly.

Does lowering the settings give you more FPS?

You can also run Cinebench R23 and see what clocks your CPU is hitting under load.

Hey,

So, you've got 16gb of ram, but look at your system ram usage. It's 14.5gbs used. Now this will not all be used by the game (most of it will). With that kind of usage, your system is having to use it's pagefile/swapfile/virtual mem to store data. Your data is on a HDD or SSD, and it's much slower than ram. This is where I'd expect your issue is.

It's possible 32gbs of ram would be better here, giving your maxing out.
 
Okay, so your ram isn't running at full speed. This could be the issue.

You will need to set the ram to XMP or DOCP (For Asus motherboards). This will bring you a huge boost in FPS, sometimes in the region of 25%, game dependant.

There's a lot going on there. Stock cooler, is not enough and just about keeps the CPU within Spec. Ram is running at it's lowest rate. Set XMP/DOCP.

Bios is pretty recent. There is another one for your mobo, but it might be better to leave as is for the moment.

Are all system drivers, chipset etc,. up to date? What power plan are you using?

Power plan is High performance and all drivers are up to date
