I mean cmon devs ffs??!!
I run the game at ultra all except antialiasing on low, resolution 2560x1440 and i get fine 60-75fps on i7 8700k@4.9ghz, 32GB DDR4 corsair dominator platinum @4000mhz and msi geforce gtx 1080 gamin x also oveclocked..and thats cool...
But...i noticed via afterburner that cpu usage is pretty much all the time jumping from 75 to 95% and that is making my cpu even hotter and i remember Origins had steady cpu usage 55-75% so be that the anti protection or not u DO NEED TO OPTIMIZE CPU USAGE...
this is absurd
Then you are the extremely rare exception Jumpy-BL. If you look at any media coverage (including benchmarks) or even this forum you will notice a flood of people complaining about the intense CPU usage this game has. Some sources claim its overhead (due to bad ressource management of the console-oriented engine), some say otherwise. Problem is - Ubisoft is the one to alleviate the issues. Not the community or modders.
I'm well aware it's a widespread issue. Interestingly it's not an issue that affects me.Originally Posted by Ravwyn Go to original post
Same CPU and same problem with an unlocked framerate.
These AC games burn through threads with ease, I recommend capping to 60 to take some pressure off the CPU. I personally don’t believe you’d perceive a difference between 75 FPS and 60.
For reference, I’m running it clocked at 4.9ghz alongside an RTX 2080.
It's definitely more CPU bound than anything .... Upgrading my CPU from an Ryzen 5 1400 to a Ryzen 5 2600 upped my average FPS by a whopping +11 ..... Min only came up +4 and Max came up +16 .... That is with no changes except the CPU itself ..... Game play itself is a whole lot smoother but that could also be partially due to the v1.05 update .... I haven't had a single crash yet since the update either which was my main gripe ....
Videocard is a GTX 1060 3 GB with everything on high except clouds and AA which are at medium ...... Setting AA from medium to low made no difference in earlier tests so I'd go with medium as it does look better with no real performance penalty
With this amount of RAM, you can DISABLE the pagefile entirely =) Go ahead, try it!
My Win10 has two separate SSDs for the auto allocated pagefile. If I had more RAM, sure - I would totally disable it. Except your browser preference consumes 80% of it already ^-^'. It is always closely tied to how you use your PC. Caching works best if it's to the RAM directly (so no pagefile at all) or to dedicated ssds, but not every user wants to deal with manually assigning this.
