Low GPU usage
Bungie Account Name - triccotricco#1061
Platform - Steam
Description of Issue - GPU usage is around 30/40% while cpu is 80/90% all the time, fps stays around 140 on almost every graphic level so i guess the game doesn't fully utilize the graphics card
Rough Date and Time of issue - Whole playtest
Repro steps - Run the game
CPU: Ryzen 5800X3D
GPU: RTX 5070

Hi there,
Thank you for the report. We're seeing a rise in reports of this nature with the game being more limited by CPU instead of GPU on some machines. Rest assured that performance tuning is ongoing!
First of all, this game is awesome, good job guys.
I have a very similar issue as op.
AMD 5900x
64gb ram
RTX 3080ti latest driver
win11 25h2
I'm playing at max settings @3440x1440
I noticed that the performance indoor reach a ceiling of 90-100 fps but the GPU utilization fluctuates around 85% (GPU Z)
During outdoors, in the swamp map, if I go to a tall building and look at distance with many buildings on my screen, performance goes to 70fps and GPU usage drops to around 70%
Runnig DLSS- DLAA or Quality mode have almost no performance difference, indicating a clear CPU bottleneck.
Same issue low GPU usage, capped to 25% in game !
laptop Asus ROG SCAR15-G533ZX-LN015W
Intel I9 12900
NVidia GeForce RTX 3080 Ti laptop (16Gb DDR 5)
64Gb RAM 2To SSD (NvMe)
2k external screen (144hz, GSync active)
Same I get low GPU use in game. GPU usage is at around 40% while CPU is at 80% with a RTX 2060. Even made sure that windows is using high-performance. Game decides it should use 70% of GPU in the menu but not the actual game.
Hello everyone!
I have the same problem
CPU R5 7500f with little overclock
RAM 32gb DDR5 6000Mhz
GPU RTX 4060ti 8gb
Cpu usage floating on 90-100% while the graphics card is used at 50-60% on DLAA
Frame rate lock with V-synk on 75hz аnd some times i have fps drops to 50-56 fps often in gunfights with other players mixed with bots, as well as at random moments without any action in the game, literally moving around the map.
hello ! same problem , i play in 2k all maxed out , my gpu usage is like 30/40% but cpu is always 80-100% , i capped the fps to 144 to match the monitor but i have some drops to 90/100 fps
CPU 9800X3D
Ram 64Gb ddr5 6000mhz
GPU Rtx 5090
Same problem here
CPU Ryzen 5600X
RAM 32 GB DDR4 3200
GPU RTX 5070
I have been experiencing low CPU usage (max 40%) and fps fluctuates between 70 to 110, mostly going down in combat. Exact same thing happens in the other Bungie game.
Same.. CPU is maxed out and the GPU is just chilling
i7-9700K (4.9GHz)
RTX 2080 Ti
32GB DDR4 3600Mhz
Playing on 1080p
fps is very inconsistent and the game feels really choppy. The motion blur setting doesn't seem to be working either.
Hello. Same problem.

My specs are:
GPU: RTX 4070 TI Super 16 GB
CPU: i5-14600KF
RAM: 32 GB DDR5 6000 Mhz
Driver Version: 591.86
Issue Description: My FPS fluctuates between 80 and 120 depending on the map and location, with frequent drops during combat. Lowering the graphics settings doesn't significantly improve performance.
Resource Usage:
GPU Load: ~40-50%
CPU Load: ~80-85%
I’ve attached a video clip of the gameplay and a screenshot of my current settings for reference.
Note for clarity on the overlay: К/с = FPS, ЦП = CPU, ГП = GPU.

Am having the same issue as well. am working on a 5070ti OC with I&14700K. GPU is capped around 50% and CPU in the same range but i noticed some CPU cores are working near 100%. which i think the game is working mainly on the CPU. i just pre ordered the game but i really hope this is fixed in the official launch.
As of today 5th March, launch day - GPU utilization is still the problem as it was during the server slam. My rig below and GPU is not utilized more than 50% at any point of time in the game.

I also have very low GPU usage on RTX 4080 and i5-13500. No frame cap. Always between 80 and 100 fps no matter what graphic quality preset used.
I'm having the same issue. My FPS stays between 100 and 120 on Perimeter and Swamp, but drops to 80 on Outpost. I noticed that my frames go back up to around 140 when there are no other players left on the map.
Ryzen 7 9700x RTX 5080 32go DDR 5 on 4K monitor.
I'm havving the same issues, 5070ti with a AMD 5700X, GPU utilisation max out at 60% and cpu at 60%, cmon bungie it's making the game really unenjoable for me with the constant hithcing in gunfights
same, 3070 + ryzen 5 5600. Gpu usage about 40% and 60-80 fps average but on outpost fps can drop under 50. I think on open test performance was better
