Question Low GPU CPU usage GTA V

[wllyimdd]

So i've been playing gta recently and in story mode i get from 90 to 120 FPS average on medium high settings, with 40-50% GPU usage and 40-70% CPU usage.

On solo online sessions i get 40-80 FPS with 20-40% GPU usage and 40-50% CPU usage...

On public full sessions I get 30-60 FPS average even on the lowest settings.

On other games for example Forza Horizon 4 i run it at high settings 120 FPS average with 99% GPU usage...

Temps are really fine, CPU 20-45C max GPU 30-60C no watercolling.

Windows power plan to Ultimate Performance, all drivers up to date.

My specs are:
P9X79
I7-4820K 3.7GHz non OC
GTX 970 OC STRIX
G.Skill 16GBs (4x4GBs) Quad Channel DDR3 1600Mhz RAM
Samsung 850 Evo 256GBs
7.2K RPM HDD

Is that total cpu usage? Total cpu usage is fairly meaningless, you need to monitor individual cores/threads. Are any individual cores hitting 100%?

Yes it's total CPU usage and no there's no CPU core hitting 100% and the highest CPU core usage is the CPU3 which reaches 70% max on gta... All cores besides CPU3 reach a max of 50%
