Intel Arc a750, Warhammer 40.000: Space Marine 2. GPU Usage drop below 90%

[Megamagner]

In some game scenarios it can reach 99% but generally it's between 95-80 or even less.

From what I have seen, it's not a CPU bottleneck because you can get more and stable GPU usage using the same processor with more powerful GPU.

system specs:

CPU: Ryzen 5 7600.

Motherboard: Asrock B650 Steel Legend.

RAM: 32 GB DDR5-6000Mt/s.

GPU: Asrock Challenger Intel Arc A750.

Drivers: 32.0.101.5989

Hi Megamagner,

GPU usage or utilization is dependent in how much rendering is needed on the game. There will be some certain cutscenes or events in the game that it will low or high the usage of GPU. To further investigate this see the following question below:

1. Are you having issues when the utilization of GPU is down? Like freezing, crashing, hanging?
2. What driver version are you using?
3. Does this also happen on other games? If yes, can you share the name of those game?

I am looking forward hearing back from you

Hi Dhanniel, 

Thanks for the support!

Let me answer your questions, 

1. Not freezing, crashing or hanging but FPS drop too, 38-45 while GPU usage is at 80-95. 

2. I use the 32.0.101.5989 driver version.

3. It only happens in this one, in other games like Warframe the GPU usage is at 99%, except for menus and cinematics.

Hi Dhanniel,

Thanks fot the support!

Let me answer your questions, 

1. Won't freeze, crash or hang, but fps drops with GPU usage. If GPU usage is at 99% and drops to 80 or 70%, FPS drops from 65-55 to 45-38 without freezing or stuttering. Usually drop in open areas full of enemies or with many particle effects.

2. I use the 32.0.101.5989 drivers version.

3. It just happens in this one, in other games like Warframe it stays at 99% while play, except for menu and cinematics.

I will be waiting for any other requirements.

Hi Megamagner,

I apologize for on my previous response. There are just some clarifications that I would like to ask on this, please see questions below:

1. When you say your FPS is dropping, can you tell me what is your expected FPS should be at certain GPU utilization?
2. Also, do you have a reference where you are comparing the FPS?
3. What is the best FPS you are achieving?
4. Can you share your game setting to us?
5. Also, can you please utilize the CapFrameX, and export the data on JSON file and share it to this thread. You can follow these instructions About CapFrameX
