    Why is my cpu and gpu performance low?


    Why is my cpu and gpu performance low? My cpu usage is anywhere from 2-14% on a AMD ryzen 5 5600x 6-core processor and GPU at 1% on a Nvidia GeForce RTX 3060. I first noticed it today when trying to download COD MW. Noticed my downloading speed repeatedly go up to 88 mb/s back down to 0. Speed tests are looking good. Is this an issue with the physical components?

  2. GPU low performance

    hello!

    i have this pc :

    - Core 2 Quad Q9550 2.83GHz

    - 4x2GB RAM 1333Hz

    - Gigabyte GA-EP41T-UD3L DDR3

    - Msi GT 1030 2GB (DDR4) oc

    - 350w FSP power supply

    so i bought an RX 550 4GB G-DDR5 and before installing it i uninstalled the old GT 1030 driver using DDU and installed the new GPU and the driver for it from the official website and i got low fps on all games and the card was like not doing any performance
    better then my old one in the matter of fact it was doing lower performance then my old GPU (the gt 1030) even tho i changed the setting's to eSports mode... so i uninstalled the driver's of the RX 550 and installed my old GPU again and what happens is that
    my old GPU is started to do like less 20-25 fps in all games... i uninstalled the driver's and install it again and still having same problem... i tested the RX 550 on a better motherboard/CPU and it was working greatly so i guess my PC didn't handle the RX
    550 but my problem now is that my old GPU is doing lower performance, why ? and could the RX 550 effects my PC especially my motherboard "because it was kinda overheating" ? is it driver problem ? many questions in my head that made me surrender and ask here
    and see if i can get any help or accurate answer for why my old GPU is doing less 20 to 25 fps and why my RX 550 GPU didn't work on my PC

  3. Low CPU util on CPU-intensive games.

    Hello, My name is Erfan. I will help you with this.

    There could be several reasons why the CPU is in low utilization while playing games.

    Games use more GPU than CPU because the GPU is designed to handle the graphics and rendering of the game, while the CPU runs things like physics and shadows. Games that require heavy graphics processing, such as Cyberpunk, Horizon Zero Dawn, and Control, are very GPU-heavy. Increasing the draw distance on a match will likely tax the CPU more than the GPU.

    If your GPU is not powerful enough to keep up with the demands of the game, it can bottleneck the CPU, which will also lead to low CPU utilization.

    Game resolutions, in the low resolutions you will experience high CPU utilization and in the high resolutions, low CPU utilization.

    Let me know if that did not help. Thank you.

  4. Why is my cpu and gpu performance low?

    Why is my GPU and CPU usage so low and still have fps drops in games?

    Hi, Do2k

    All right, first let's check if one with PCI-Express is in a version below, the strange thing is that CPU and GPU bottlenecks are occurring at the same time, we'll have to see on the part.

    What resolution are you using?

    What is the motherboard brand?

    List games that are experiencing low GPU usage.
