CPU is always 100% despite having a decent GPU (RTX 3060)

Based on the update, the game engine should be making my GPU work but its not the case on my current Desktop.

SPECS:

CPU: i5-12400F
RAM: 16GB (x2 8GB Stick)
Storage: SSD
GPU: NVIDIA RTX 3060 3 fan

CPU is always playing around 95 to 100% while GPU is at 80-90% viewed by Windows 100 Task Manager. I'm afraid my unit will be bricked if I keep playing as it is right now. My PC is not the strongest but I'll be damned if I can't play PoE at its current state right now while having no issues on AAA games.

I did not have performance metric (F1) post patch, my CPU and GPU were always below 80% post patch while running juiced content same as the video.

Leaving it here hope it helps.

IN GAME SETTINGS
Mode: WINDOWED FULLSCREEN
Resolution: 1920x1080
Renderer: Directx12
VSYNC: Fast
Triple-Buffering: Enabled

Dynamic Culling: Enabled
Dynamic Resolution: Enabled
Engine Multithreading: Enabled

The rest are set to low

After hours of testing, These are the best settings that provides "stable" FPS while playing. Other options provide same if not worse stability.

Your shader bar is going nuts, I think the engine patch cleared them so the more you play with those skills the better it should get as it saves new ones.

Glad you found settings that work.

Does shader correlate with CPU and GPU usage? With the settings I mentioned above it still hits 100% CPU Usage all the time.

I wanna bump this. My CPU is under strain since this new patch and causing performance issues without a doubt. Unable to have other windows open without game dropping frames. I had no troubles previously.

Same, but completely unplayable
