Overview
If you have an i5 processor you have probably noticed high cpu usage. Due to this you may experience various performance issues. Ive found that there are a few simple steps you can do to drop the cpu usage anywhere from 5 to 20 percent resulting in much more reliable performance. Give it a shot and let me know your results and if anyone has any other tips for me to add to the guide please share.1. Kill any uneccesarry background processes. 2. In game settings head to graphics>advanced> and set your max fps to 90 or lower depending on what your rig can handle. I personally am able to pull 120+ frames but setting my lock to 90 reduced my cpu usage by 15% and I notice a much more smooth experience. 3. Spam the ever loving ♥♥♥♥ out of Raven Studios & sledgehammer games begging for better optimization for i5 processors.
Experiencing issues with another processor?
To my knowledge this is mainly affecting i5’s but please share with us if you have another processor experiencing similar issues.
