    Low GPU usage


    So here's my problem :



    While I'm in the main menu my GPU usage is around 50% and it runs smoothly but whenever I launch the Benchmark or the campain (have not tried mutliplayer but i suppose it'll be the same) the GPU usage goes down around 10% - 20% (read by EVGA Precision X OC)
    and the game runs very poorly.



    I find that really strange as the game was working well on my older PC which had a i7 2600 (non K), 10GB of ram and a GTX 1070. I now have a i7 7700K, 16GB of ram and still the same GTX 1070 and the game does not work well.



    I'll add that from what I have read in a thread on the game's forum (LOW FPS GTX 1070 - GPU BOUND AT <10% ON BENCHMARK

    https://gearsofwar.com/en-us/forums/a35773093fe74d3d9970e0a896b16d6d/threads/low-fps-gtx-1070---gpu-...
    ) the people that have the same problem with the game all seems to have skylake/kabylake (i5/i7 6xxxx/7xxxx) CPU.

  2. Low bandwidth usage

    I have pretty quick fiber optic broadband, however when I am downloading games from Xbox store it takes forever.

    Admitedly i am using wireless connection to my router but I am only getting between 5-15 Mbit/s. If I test my connection using my phone wirelessly right next to my Xbox with speedtest app I get 85 Mbit/s using a server 100+ miles away.

    Why is my Xbox ones bandwidth utilisation so poor? Surely with so much bandwidth available it should be downloading very quickly.

    Try plugging your Xbox into your router as a test to see if it makes it go any faster.

    Low GPU usage

    Hey there guissmo!

    Let's start with the obvious and double check that your GPU drivers are fully updated and on the latest version.

    I took a look through the thread you've linked from the Gears of War forums. It looks like a couple people believe that the issue lies with the "Gigabye App Center" for their motherboards. What model motherboard do you currently have and are you using that
    App Center to manage it? I've also noticed some people mentioning that it may be an issue with the Intel Lake series CPU but hopefully that's not the case.

    If you could also give us a dxdiag that'd be helpful.

    Post back and let us know. Low GPU usage :)

    low cpu usage and low gpu usage

    Thanks, if you go to your laptop BIOS. Are you able to see your graphics card listed there?

    May I know If you tried forcing to use the GPU?
    Go to Windows Settings > System > Display > Graphics > select “Desktop app” and click on “Browse”
    Once there add the .exe files for each game.
    After that click on each one > options > select high performance > save
    Restart your PC and try again.

    By the way, how did you reinstalled windows?
    Via settings?

    That's nice to hear!

    May I know what exactly fixed the issue? Disabling the startup programs or creating a new user?

    1.No, the game fully supported my os (Windows 10)

    4.Im on Windows 10

    5.I tried updating the driver but it's still the same

    Note: I tried reinstalling windows but it still happening. It's not just the game lagging it's the entire pc is lagging so hard

    low cpu usage and low gpu usage

    Are you able to see your graphics card listed via Task manager > show more details > performance?

    Or from here: Go to Windows settings > system > display > advanced display > display adapter properties?

    Let me know the results, in any case. Can be a bit odd but try this:

    A. Open task manager > select the startup tab > disable all the program listed there temporarily

    After that restart your PC and check how it goes

    B. Create a new local administrator user in your PC and try from there:
