Hey all. I just recently got into the scene and need a bit of help. When I first played FFX my CPU usage was between 7 and 35%. Now FFX and all other games are 99% CPU usage. Any idea why? Here's my setup:
Vista 64bit Ultimate
i5 750 Quad core
Radeon HD 4870 1024mb
4gb DDR3 Dual Channel RAM.
I don't get it, I mean I've heard that having a quadcore doesn't help, but this is awful. My setup should be just fine. 25 fps in Fight Night 3? Gradius V is slow? The worst part is that in the beginning, FFX was AMAZING, it still runs well, but I don't like being at 99% for hours on end. Did I change a setting by mistake? Anyone have an optimal setting for Fight Night 3 so I can see if it can run better? Thanks.
