Low Gpu Usage High Cpu Usage in Cod WZ

[KarloZen]

i recently upgraded this Christmas from a gtx 970 to a rtx 3070, installed it correctly and it runs perfecting in other games (overwatch, Red Dead Redemption 2, StarCraft 2, Gta 5) but the main game i bought it for is Cod MW WZ, i average in game around 70fps on ultra at 1080p with Low LOWS of 30fps, my Gpu usage in Msi Afterburner is around 40% max where my Cpu usage is around 95-99%, My rig is a i7-4790 3.6Ghz with 16gig DDR3 ram and a RTX 3070 with a 750w psu. i have trouble shooted this issue since Christmas day and still have found no fix. Most people on reddit say its bottlenecking or just bad game optimization, please it would make my new year so sweet if i could play war zone at 144+ fps on ultra settings. Help would Be MUCH APRECIATED

It is bottlenecking. There is no magic to double your fps. You need a faster CPU.

If your CPU sits at 100% there is not much you can do other than getting a new CPU. Maybe overclocking could help a bit, but not much.

 

Currently you're CPU bottlenecked.

You can't OC a locked 4790 without a Z boards features.

Like MCE and Bclock tiny boosts, and better ram speed support.

 

The CPU is tapped.

You'd likely only see 75-120fps (not constant 120fps+) if you used Low settings Medium-High textures and followed the various tweakguides for vram allocation in the ini file and maybe some other tweaks ive not known about in recent times.

Use Nvidia DSR, enable simulated 4K pixel counts and play with sharper distances and the same frames.

 The only thing that is close to magic, you can try it

but its only in cod warzone that this issue happens every other game is low cpu and 99 gpu usage in rdr2 and gta, so basically i need a new cpu?
