My gpu usage isnt always 100% with vsync off my gpu usage drops constantly to 40-50% usage whenever my fps is dropping i dont think it should work like that my friend also has same issue he got even 3070 and he is dropping to 40 fps and 40-50% gpu usage surely we arent the only ones with such problem?
While obviously in beta, LE generally hasnt had any optimisation yet so there are definitely issues…
Unfortunately these problems are not always simple to workaround right now… What you describe could be anything from thermal throttling, to game code underutilising the GPU to bottlenecks to bugs or even issues with specific driver configs/OS setups or GPUs downclocking for no apparent reason (like on laptops). and yes… its happening on 30 series systems but not happening on 10 /20 series… sometimes vice versa … sometimes you get better average performance on lower end hardware than on high end maxed out systems…
A recommendation that i have found works for a lot of people and alleviates issues with 100% GPU usage is to be conservative with your in-game settings… LE does bizzare things if you let it max out your GPU to 100% all the time… its almost 100% guaranteed to cause issues ranging from fps spikes, freezing and general instability/crashing.
Its better if you restrict LE to a baseline of around 60-70% GPU usage while standing in town doing nothing (no skills etc) - a combination of framerate limiting, resolution & quality settings allows this… By doing this, you leave the GPU headroom to ramp up to 100% usage during busy times but allowing it to drop back down when less used.
Under no circumstances should you allow LE to run with no framerate limit - and make sure its not one that is uselessly high - i.e. not actually limiting LE in any way on your hardware…
the issue is not on my end theresn o throttling or anything any other game runs perfectly for me i could even play RDR2 on high settings on stable 100 fps but yeah i know LE is unptimised i just didnt know its this bad
The fact that other games run perfectly is irrelevant - all it confirms is that your hardware is probably working ok but that in itself doesnt explain all the different factors involved in playing LE that are not the same as the other games that run fine…
Its far too much to get into here, but everything from the beta state of the game, OS patches, drivers, game engines, settings, configurations, third party applications/conflicts, in-development debug flags, hardware, possible unknown bugs and a hundred other little things that all meld together to create your very unique and specific LE experience…
Optimisation is very poor at LE, it got slightly better, but as of patch 8.4 its returned to its normal state of garbage.
It is most certainly all on the devs end, i play 3 ARPG’s and the other 2 run fine.
Cant wait for MP, it will be a complete dumspter fire.
