UnForsaken

Ok, but i have this type of usage in games such as BFV, Fortnite, Apex Legends, R6S, and more no matter what there is always one cpu that is capped at 100% and another at around 80% while the rest are at 20-50%.

yeah i know that its maxed out and probably the culprit however what could be causing this? i thought that the load was supposed to be separated between all cores?

i had a gtx 980 and after 4 years the thermal paste was starting to not work so i changed it out and then it was 4-6 Celsius less than what it used to be. you can also download HWmonitor or gpuz for temps and monitoring, MSI afterburner is a great program that comes with rivatuner; a built in monitor for real time numbers and graphs.

I have a 4930k clocked @4.4GHz on all cores with a voltage of 1.35 I was just wondering if this cpu usage was normal while gaming. I recently had a stuttering problem and thought i was from my rtx 2080 but it is not, is it possible that this type of cpu usage causes stuttering?

Ok so I am aware of that issue however while playing games my standby memory and page files stay quite low I even downloaded a standby memory remover just in case and it does remove the memory but does not fix the problem. I believe I was already on that thread that you included aswell. I’ll look into trying windows 7, and if not I’ll have to leave it up to my local repair store that charges 60 dollars an hour.

how though when I put dsr to 4x I and set it to 4k on fortnite(1080p monitor) I still get 200+ Fps with the stutters down to 40 with neither cpu/ gpu or memory spiking up; this time both cpu and gpu was at 50-60% and memory was 8/16 gb

when putting dsr factor to 4x (4k) I get the same framerate as before because I don't have a 4k monitor

so about that I just reset windows yesterday and I still get stuttering, also used DDU again and updated to most recent drivers again. will try your 4k idea now.

I already have 2 separate 8 pin connectors going from psu to gpu. thanks though.

Trident X (8x2) XMP @2400 but stuttering occurs both at 2400 and default of 1333, I either have a weird cpu bottleneck or there is a issue with my gpu. like i've stated before my old 980 worked fine in this build. also about a month ago i ran memtest 86 (4 passes) and no errors were found.

i just double checked and fortnite makes my cpu go up to 80% while my gpu is only at 35% thats on high performance setting. while apex legends makes cpu go from 70%-100% and gpu is at 100% so its obviously most likely some sort of bottleneck issue but it just doesnt make sense as this cpu is still pretty good in my opinion, it shouldnt be going that high. fortnite has fps as low as 60 fps and highs above 240(should easily have 200+ all the time), and apex legends goes anywhere from 80-140 on high(should be 200+ all the time)

so after updating bios and playing some games i still have a stuttering issue, so on the 6 cores being utilized all 6 are at 80% usage, while gpu usage was at 98-100% which means i have a cpu bottleneck right? even though i have a 4930k which I mentioned is still quite relevant?

UPDATE: Successfully Updated to bios version 0701 i have yet to test furthermore! its 4:40 AM and i am tired! will keep posted tomorrow.

my cpu never goes above 60c under full load and my gpu never goes over 65c under load (unless benchmarking). I have 16gb of ram and while gaming the most i ever saw it use was about 10gb consistent. right now at idle its using 4.4gb

after playing a full match of apex legends it appears that cpu 0,2,4,6,8,10 were all utilized while the other 6 were not which means this game only uses 3 cores, during the game a few micro stutters happened but I didn't see anything wrong with the graphs as the cpu's being utilized were at a constant 70% or so.
