Yeah, I know it's only 100%, but having that many cores nearly maxed on a game is awful. lol
 
oh, that is working it. what gpu and res/settings, can you put more load onto the gpu?
 
its hitting it that hard at 4k?! it that usage during game play or in cutscenes?
 
It's just the max load per core over the course of a gaming session. I guess you could say both.

without it doing any shader caching? 'cause if its just the max, it might have only happened a couple times. or are you seeing that consistently? just curious, as ive got the same chip.
 
Next time I play i'll log it and let you know.

It's been a great chip. Nearly 5 years old and going strong. I think it's just reaching it's limits.
 
ok, that seems more reasonable. the max is it spiking during loading or cut scenes or something. still working it pretty good though. the extra % is still a funny glitch though.
Just tested and yeah, that looks like when it's happening. On loading.
 
Well, been testing again for a bit and something in the game is definitely hitting it hard. On initial load 3 threads were 100%. After a couple hours playing, almost all have hit that threshold.
