ActionManZlt 160 Posted March 25, 2013 First, apps that measure "GPU usage" are unreliable.Second, if your CPU usage is higher than your GPU usage, that just means that the game's GPU work is less than it's CPU work, which means that your framerate is bottlenecked by the CPU. This means that if you crank up the GPU settings (e.g. increase resolution), then your framerate will likely stay the same... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
