Question RX6800 and 6700xt limited frame and low GPU/CPU usage

[ruglau]

I'll be brief:

I open a game - extreme graphics settings: 120 fps / 89% gpu usage

i open the same game - graphics settings at minimum 125 fps / 30-40% gpu usage


i tried everything:
amd adrenaline settings
bios settings
game settings

sometimes some improvements but nothing exceptional.

what could be the problem? with both 6800 and 6700xt

(no bottleneck) cpu at 40% (i9 9900k)

Ram 3200mhz tridentz 16gb

ssd 970 pro

asus rog maximus hero XI

no windows power saving

i'm having a similar problem, on some games my 3070 is going 85/90 % and doing decent fps, in some other it wont go over 50%

i have done everything, even going for a clean installation of w11, but nothing, the problem still there

CPU limited.

Yep.
A processor can put out X amount of FPS in a given game depending on the game engine used until its limited by what the video card can render. The CPU doesn't care if your @ 1080p or 4K resolution it still can put out just X amount of FPS.
Thats why you see little to no FPS increase using lower settings.
All games don't use all available cores.

So your saying you get 120 FPS in every game?

Yes more or less 120-140 I tried 4 games and all of this full graphic 120 worst graphic 120 fps the only this that change is the GPU usage that because with extreme graphic the GPU finally go to 90%
