Larian Studios Forums Baldur's Gate III Baldur's Gate III - Technical & Gameplay Problems Low CPU and GPU utilization starting from act 2

i have 3080, nvme ssd, 5800x, 32GB ram. Not top, but pretty fine to have 100-120 fps in act1. But it's worthless when you start to get 50-60% GPU\CPU usage and drops to 50 fps and lower in some areas in act 2 (really scared of incoming 3rd). I have latest drivers and game version in Steam. Even if i lowering setting from ultra to minimal, it doesn't change much. Please fix your game engine so it could use more then 50% of hardware resources!

Anyone else experiencing this? Any workarounds?

There's this. Not tried it myself.

Baldur's Priority - CPU Performance FPS Optimizer

That's simply giving *.exe more priority. Tried. Maybe it gives a couple of fps, but still CPU/GPU just chilling on the same %.
The game engine definitely require tweaks.

wait till you get to the 10fps of act 3 in lower baldurs gate.
got almost the same rig as you (5800x3d and 3080 ti along with nvme ssd gen 4 and 32gigs ram)

p.s
didnt have problems (at least not so extreme) before patch 2.

Fix it please!
