Hi all! I recently upgraded from a 1080ti to a 2080ti and this has caused my CPU usage to skyrocket in games to the point where my i7 9700k @ 4.9GHz is stuttering. The GPU usage will be maxed out or at least high 90%. I used to be able to stream onto twitch while playing but now when I do with the same exact settings except with the 2080ti in, my stream is super choppy. I used DDU to uninstall all the old drivers and installed the newest drivers for the 2080ti, I've tried turning off HPET. Temps are all fine no higher than 70 for the GPU and 80 on the CPU even under full load with realbench. Any other ideas or tips will be gladly appreciated and if I ned to upload pictures of anything just let me know andI'll post them ASAP.

Get faster CPU. 2080ti is a much faster card that puts more load on the CPU.
