Question Red Dead Redemption 2 running slow with 60% GPU and 80% CPU ?

[asheesh1_2000]

Hi,

I am running RDR2 on a ROG RTX 2070S 8GB and i5 7600 K overclocked to 4.45 GHz and 16 GB RAM.

My issue is to have smooth gameplay I need to keep the graphic settings such that the game does not use more than 4 GB of the graphic card. If I change the settings to use the card around 6 GB or more, the game takes a huge drop in its performance. The resolution goes so slow that it gives me a massive headache while playing it and the gameplay is not smooth anymore. All this while my CPU hovers between 40 to 80%.

I do not understand this. How come the game performance goes down even if I have GPU and CPU usage to spare?


Thanks
