Low Fps Low Gpu Usage

Hi everyone,

Issue is random. Some games I don’t go below 140fps, but some games it’s a constant 90 fps. GPU usage seems to drop with FPSs. GPU temps never exceed 73°c at full load. Usually sits at 65°c or lower due to low GPU Usage. GPU usage is at around 60/70% when at 160fps, but can drop to 40 or 50. CPU temps never exceed 67°c at full load. Hi, I am using my MSI GS65 to play Fifa 20 with the configuration of i7 8750h and a GTX 1070 max q. This setup should be getting me above 160 frames in the ultra graphics setting but I could only reach to 100fps (with dips reaching 60 fps very often) while playing the demo versions. I unlocked the f. I mean its obvious that if the game gets too demanding and the GPU still has some power it should use it right? I have a GTX960M, during heavy fights the game goes under 50 fps no probs, the GPU usage is at 60-70% tops, what about going up a little? Nooo I´ve set everything to high-performance, the temp are fine, NVIDIA drivers up to date. GPU Usage hovers around 60% CPU Usage is less than 50% on all cores. All settings set to Ultra, RT Reflections on Ultra, DLSS to Quality. Changing things to High and removing Ray Tracing and DLSS changes little for FPS.


Since 1 month I upgrade my GTX 960 4GB to an RTX 2060 SUPER, I was exceeded of poor performances, but since I upgrade I can't see so much differences.
Moreover my CPU and GPU usage in game are very poor (around 30 to 40%).Low
With plane such as FSLABS A320 on airport like Paris Orly airport I barely reach 15fps... even with low settings.
My specs are :

Here's an example of my task manager with PREPAR3D open : https://ibb.co/C2KG0SM
I would like to easily reach 25 to 30fps in the worst case if possible.
I'm running on PREPAR3D V4.5

Thank you

Ok. I've done a lot of testing and fiddling. I had the same problem and this solved it for me.

I have Msi gtx 1080, ryzen 1700, 64gb ram. Was getting around 50fps with 50% gpu usage & 30% cpu. Now I'm getting around 70-110fps with around 80% GPU usage.

  1. Very generic one, but make sure you have the latest drivers for your GPU.

  2. Go to your EFT folder, > right click> properties > compatibility > check these : disable fullscreen optimization, Run this program as administrator, High dpi scaling override (in 'change high dpi settings' )

  3. Open Nvidia control panel > Manage 3d settings> choose EFT.

  • power management mode: Prefer maximum performance
  • texture filtering -Anisotropic sample optimization: off
  • texture filtering-Negative LOD bias: Allow
  • texture filtering-Quality:High quality
  • texture filtering-Trilinear optimization: On
  • vsync: off
  1. In EFT settings > game> Set process affinity to logical cores OFF (helped me, might be different for you)
  2. This one was the most effective for me. (especially, if you have Ryzen CPU)

Make sure you have the latest BIOS drivers. I have Asus prime x370-prime, and they had multiple updates.

If you have RAM that runs at for an example 3200mHZ, make sure it's set at 3200mHZ in BIOS. (stock bios speed is 2133mHZ). If you don't know how to get into bios, download CPU-Z . Go to Memory tab > DRAM frequency: whatever it has multiple it by 2. For example 1066 so *2 = 2132mHz, if you have 2132mHz I really would suggest you do this.

I know not everyone knows how to overclock, so if you are not sure don't do it or check some youtube videos before doing.

Low Gpu Load

  • I overclocked my RAM from 3000mHz to 3200mHZ, and CPU from 3.0 to 3.8gHz. This part is very specific for your own RAM and CPU, and you should check yourself if you can overclock. But the RAM part is imo the most important for Ryzen. Here is video so you get Idea how to overclock RAM https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XvmYj7b0aZ8 .
  • For Intel CPUs you can also overclock RAM, but you don't get as big difference as Ryzen CPUs. Overclocking CPU would benefit more.
