i5 6600k high cpu usage (The Division)

Hi I recently purchased a 6600k in hopes it would be enough to run The Division. With some headroom left over to stream at least via quick sync. However even though this processor is well within the system requirements I have cpu usage up to 100% ( thedivision.exe accounting for up to 97% of that) I feel that 97% is a bit extreme for a cpu that meets system requirements.

Hello, ndsodo:

Does your system crash when it reaches the 99% of CPU usage?

When you are playing the game, does the CPU usage stay at 99% all the time?

Have you played other games with this processor? If yes, does the CPU usage rise to same usage?

Regards,
