gpu CPU 100% and GPU 0%-5% usage 1070ti

[JOK3RMAXX]

GPU: Asus Strxi 1070ti

CPU: intel i5-6600k

MB: Asus Z170-A

RAM: 2x4g 2666mhz vengeance 

 

My CPU is always at 90% + usage and my GPU is always a 0% usage in mostly every games. Its giving me a lot of spike lag. What can i do?

You plugged the display cable into your graphics card, right? Otherwise it could be running off of internal graphics. Oh wait, that's probably a dumb idea. But whatever.

try this.

Your system should be potent enugh to play this game.

Did you update your Graphics Drivers, BIOS, does the game have all the latest Updates etc?

And for sure

thats right, but i guess youre plugged in correctly, because running of the iGPU would result in super low FPS and not spikeing stuf.

 

After checking that do @DroidiQ´s tip.

That should fix it

If the video DroidiQ posted doesn't solve the problem:

It appears that you are at 93% RAM usage, which could be causing problems. Windows will compress RAM from not currently in-use applications and can also move data to the Page File from the RAM. This will, of course, need CPU (though it still shouldn't cause huge spikes in usage %). The excessive amount of RAM that you are using would be causing more issues. The easy fix is to get more RAM (don't download, that's just a meme, lol), otherwise you can filter processes by RAM usage and try to close whatever non-essential programs you can to maximize the amount of free RAM you have available.

 

Updating your drivers is always a good idea. This makes sure that your hardware is running optimally.

Crap... did not catch that. Thats allso a very god point.

@JOK3RMAXX how much RAM do you havbe?

[JOK3RMAXX]

I've got 8Gb of ram 2x4Gb

Thats on the border of enugh... try to close everything else when gaming. For example: Does discord need to run in background?

My suggestioin is to get an other 2x4gb or new 2x8 and sell the old ram. Used is 100% ok on RAM. This wont cost much and props solve the probelm if the methode described above does not. But first try to update everything and the "trick" in the video.

 

Oh and i forgot in my first post here: Wellcome to the forums

[JOK3RMAXX]

After trying DroidiQ video's thats what i get. I've win like 10% in my GPU

[Metallus97]

okk not cool. Can you download MSI afterbuner to monitor your GPU better than Windows Taskmanager. There you can see how the clocks behave etc... make us a screenshot please.

Can you try a lighter game? Like older ones or LOL, Rocketleauge etc...? Does it happen to?

[Guest]

for a 1070 you should at least consider 16 or 32 gb's of ram

[JOK3RMAXX]

i've try CSGO and its look way better

 

[Eastman51]

Black Ops 4 might just be having an aneurysm. A 6th gen i5 k-series is no slouch (evidenced by that 4.1GHz clock speed), and a 1070 Ti is a very good card. At 1080p, I can see how you can have that low of GPU utilization (my SotR GPU % was 6% at 1080p ultra with 60fps on a 1070); but that CPU utilization is stupid. If it's literally the only game doing this, I'd just chalk it up to being something wrong with the game. Send some tickets to their support team and give them a bit to sort out the issue

Well the cpu should be pretty high on bo4, the gpu should be as well. Never seen it that bad.

That would not be the bottleneck.

[Guest]

CPU might be bottlenecking the GPU, but generally it's not as severe as the issue you're having. The CPU, however, might still bottleneck a 1070 Ti a but. But don't ask me lol

[Mick Naughty]

That’s the task manager bug, I forgot I had that too.

 

Are you on 1440 with that card? 

 

Wouldn’t be getting 125 frames with 0 gpu usage. 

 

Playing in this one but no gpu usage. 

[JOK3RMAXX]

Mick im playing in 1080p. I noticed that my gpu usage are not the same in the task manager and MSI Afterburner sometime the task will be at GPU 0% and AB will be at GPU 50%.

So is it just a task manager bug?

It was for me. Reseated the card and it stopped. Think performing a clean install of the drivers also fixed it. 

 

Aside from that, that cpu prolly isn’t keeping up. I get about 180fps with a stock clock 1080 on 1080p. That map runs pretty well too, being so small.
