Low GPU Usage (~20%) + <60 FPS on RTX 3070 Ti Laptop (i7-12700H)

Reporting a consistent performance issue.

Specs:

  • i7-12700H
  • RTX 3070 Ti Laptop GPU
  • 16 GB RAM
  • 1440p display

Issue:

  • FPS stays around 40–60
  • GPU usage ~20%
  • Lowering all settings (including DLSS Ultra Performance) has minimal/zero impact on FPS

This indicates the game is not properly utilizing the GPU and appears CPU-bound or poorly optimized.

This system runs other demanding games without issue so this is genuinely puzzling. I want to just enjoy the game when I have time but it is impossible.

Troubleshooting already done:

  • Forced NVIDIA GPU
  • Updated drivers
  • Closed background processes
  • Used max performance power settings

No meaningful improvement.

Request:
Please investigate low GPU utilization and poor performance scaling, particularly on laptop CPUs (12th gen Intel). This does not appear to be a hardware limitation.

  • Hello there,

    Thank you very much for reaching out to us. I'm sorry to hear about your GPU utilization is not what you'd hoped it to be in the game leading to low FPS. We appreciate the troubleshooting you've already performed to try and resolve the issue. We've taken note of this thread and will continue investigating ways to improve the game's performance.
