GTAV Using 100% CPU but <5% GPU

[YobB1n]

Hi,

 

I've been playing GTAV for a while and it's been running fine on my laptop. However after I installed LSPDFR the fps averages around 35 and I have texture loss/slow texture loading after a while of playing. I checked task manager and my CPU is staying pinned to 100% all the time and my GPU is idling at less than 5% all the time. I made sure the GPU was detected in settings, and I looked at some previous threads that said GTAV usually doesn't use that much of the GPU. However, none of the threads I saw had GPU usage even close to as low as mine.

 

I have a 2 year-old Acer Nitro 5 laptop with an i5-7300HQ and a GTX1050.

 

Thanks for the help!

mods=more cpu processing that has to be done= less performance

Your CPU is just a dual core,i wouldn't expect mods to work well with such low end CPU.

It's a quad core, but its a few generations back so yeah, that makes sense. I gotta upgrade soon lol
