As title says recently started playing Watch Dogs: Legion. Gpu peaked at 77% last playsession of 5+ hours. Highest ive ever seen it in the game is 80 on the dot. Well thing is my CPU caps out at a 83-84ish % load across all cores. Current system GPU: MSI GTX 1080ti OC gaming edition something(dont remember exactly) .CPU: Intel 8700k stock clock currently which is 4.3ghz (with boost).
I think its weird that im chuggin fps hard in some ares especially when driving but it really doesnt affect the load of the GPU and CPU. Like I feel they could go higher in terms of load? I dont know exactly how to tell you are bottlenecked except that the GPU isnt going close to 100% but I know it can vary from game to game and that Watch Dogs: Legion is very new so optimization prolly plays a part.
When im streaming I dont feel my FPS gets all that much lower. A tad to be expect but not that much. The chugging still happens on and off stream, doesnt really notice any difference there. Also would clocking my CPU to 4.5 ghz instead or something around there make any difference in those chugging areas you think? Thanks in regard!
(EDIT) Tested lowering graphic settings to low/medium to maybe give my CPU some headroom so GPU would be able to do more work. But the result was both lowering their load % with roughly equal proportions. Both staying around the 55-65% mark. Peaking up to the mid 70ish rarely. Is the game just that poorly optimized?

. Also GPU is close to 100% When I play ultra my CPU goes into the 80's at highest. He maybe touches 70 here and there. Also his GPU might be bottlenecking his CPU here but I mean there cant be that much difference between a 1080 OC and a 1080ti? Also sure his FPS isnt good either so im not expecting to skyrocket my fps in any way. Now its more the issue of none of my compenents really pushing close to 100% load when other people with similiar systems does.
