Hi, so my problem is odyssey started to eat all my gpu from THIS MORNING.
Last two days I had Black Desert Online in background, minimized to tray, played AC and had about 70-90% on GPU, 75% on CPU.
I played like this for two days summing up, without problems.
I updated Windows 10 on Saturday 23.09 - currently there is new update available, I'm not sure if I should update it, bcs it is win10
My GPU: MSI Radeon RX 580 GAMING X 8GB GDDR5 (256 bit), DVI-D, 2xHDMI, 2xDisplayPort, BOX (RX 580 GAMING X 8G) (V341-060R)
I have GPU drivers up to date (just checked to be sure).
I bought game trough steam if it matters, I checked files on steam, there was 1 bad file, it was redownloaded, then I checked the game and same thing happened.
I still can run game just from UPlay app, always the same.
When I lowered graphics to minimum, it eats onl 80% of GPU, does it mean my GPU is dying? Why it was doing gr8 for two days?![]()
Make sure your motherboard and graphics card drivers are up to date .... And also look to see if you got a Windows Update shoved down your throat around that time frame ......
August and September Win 10 Updates are seriously effed up for some people ...... Like a LOT of game developers Microsoft quit seriously testing there software in-house and just throw it out there for the User Community (Windows Insider) to Beta test it so it doesn't get tested on a wide variety of hardware by professionals anymore I highly recommend this video explaining the problem and why it's happening

Why are you complaining about 98% GPU utilization? Games are supposed to use 98 to 100% of the GPU which means better performance and fps.
If your GPU utilization is only 75% that means you have a cpu bottleneck and you will suffer with lower performance and fps as a result.
Have you checked your fps? I would be willing to bet money you are getting higher fps now compared to before when you have 75% utilization. What temperature is your graphics card?
Most of that is just not true .... You'll find plenty of times where you have 75% GPU and only 50% CPU proving there is no CPU bottleneck ..... If you are running 100% on GPU and less than 100% CPU you have a GPU bottleneck ..... If you are running 100% CPU and less than 100% GPU you have a CPU bottleneck but if neither is at 100% which is most of the time then you have neither a CPU or GPU bottleneck and it's likely a poorly optimized Game Engine causing problems. Odyssey does a horrible job handling Assets/textures and swapping them in and out on a PC which lowers performance without bottlenecking either the CPU or GPU and makes it hard to maintain 60 FPS with high settings at 1440p even on a GTX 1070Originally Posted by philosophersorc Go to original post
Hmmm, that may be true for some games that 75% GPU usage is ok but in assassins creed origins you notice the fps go down when gpu usage goes down to 75% or below.Most of that is just not true ....

Yea, I believe you that assassins creed odyssey has issues with texture and asset swapping. With in game 50 fps lock I'm getting 9fps drops when shader cache is building. After shader cache is built I'm getting a constant smooth 50fps with 40 to 47 0.01% lows.
I think my stuttering is due to using a hard drive and not an ssd. I thinking buying an ssd would fix my occasional stuttering I get when the shader cache is being built.
