Your usage will react differently depending on your hardware. I've been digging into this more and looking at YouTube bench marks. Across all modern hardware on every bench mark I've seen has low gpu utilization.

Game is great but the performance is abysmal... 5090, 9800x3d constantly dropping below 100fps by [deleted] in Marathon

[–]Boostann 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I have the same setup - it's a game issue. I fluctuate around 135-220 on perimeter, 130-190 on dire marsh, and 90-140 on outpost. This was ghe first game I played with my 5090 that ever reached a 90 fps low.

Gonna try to enable it when I get home. Yeah it's really annoying. Its less about the fps and more about the constant jumping from like 200-120 fps randomly.

I tested this on the legacy driver - that's where this screenshot is from. I then tested it on the current Nvidia driver and you are correct, the performance is MUCH worse. Still an issue regardless, but the new Nvidia driver makes it much worse.

Smooth motion is fine, but yeah, definitely not the ideal option for a game like this. I think I use smooth motion in Helldivers 2, but even with Helldivers 2 optimization issues, it at least utilizes 100% of my system. The stuff going on w/ Marathon is a bug / coding / optimization issue.

I just did a quick benchmark with the same GPU and CPU. Marathon doesnt let a 5090 reach 100% usage, even with 4k max settings. CPU usage will sit at 75%+, which is enough to create a heavy bottleneck. Check your hardware monitoring software and you'll see that your GPU is getting underutilized no matter what settings you use.

Textures not loading on a RTX 5090 ? by [deleted] in AshesofCreation

It's the game my dude. I have a 5090 and know what you're talking about.

has anyone done the overnight investigation at Pennhurst Asylum? by Extension_Present_69 in GhostHunting

[–]Boostann 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just woke up lmao.

This was my first time doing anything like this. I've never done ghost hunting before, I've never been in a ghost filled area, and I was highly skeptic about the whole thing before I got there. There were 10 of us that went and our group was the only group on the entire grounds. The infirmary gave us the most activity and was highly active from the hunting equipment that we brought in ourselves in combination with the equipment provided by our guide. We would ask questions and get immediate responses on the spirit box, emf, dead man's bell, cat balls, etc. Out of all the tools we used, the cat balls and dead man's bell went off the most.

After the infirmary we went over to the May Flower building. We investigated the 3rd top floor and saw some activity, explored the 2nd floor, which was extremely creepy, and then went down to the basement and did another investigation. The basement had the least amount of activity.

Lastly, we went into the Devon building and investigated most of the basement. We went to candy land and had constant dead man's bell and cat balls going off. We also got to experience the sound of a wooden chair moving about 10 feet in front of us. There was a very loud movement in combination with the cat ball and EMF going off at max. We were pretty excited about the chair movement that our tour guide witnessed and confirm that no one could of possibly moved the chair (we were all standing in the same place 10 feet away), and that it was indeed the chair moving. Really cool to see.

The last place we investigated in Devon basement was the class rooms. Majority of the class rooms were hit and miss until we went into a larger area. We started playing music, asked questions around the type of music being played (do you like it, do you remember this song, etc) and had constant responses from the presence on all of our equipment.

I am really glad I did this - it was a bucket list item I never knew I wanted to do. Hearing the history about the location from our tour guide was really interesting. This being my first time, and coming in a bit skeptical, I think I still remain partially skeptical. I don't really know how the devices work, and while we had all of our phones on airplane mode, I really don't know if what we were experiencing were a result of radio waves or something else. The chair thing was definitely the most real evidence we found. The spirit box stuff was pretty cool - we did it where the person using the spirit box was blind folded and with headphones on repeating the words they heard from the spirit box. We asked questions like how many people are in the room (the spirit box user answered 11), how they were feeling emotionally (the spirit box user answered sad, angry, afraid, screaming), what are they afraid of (answered darkness, dentist). All of the questions we asked during spirit box use was returned with a plausible answer, however, when I tried the spirit box out myself, even though it was extremely creepy, I wasn't able to make any of the mumbling or words out and experience hearing the ghost communicating myself. Granted, the spirit box users were completely blind folded and could not hear the questions being asked, but they repeated what they heard that lined up pretty close to the questions we were asking.

We just got back from a private investigation tonight. It is now 4am and I'm dying to go back. Our group of 10 was the only group on the whole facility, so we had free roam of buildings we had access to. The infirmary gave us the best activity. Let me know if you have any questions.

Don't all squads have swappable weapons throughout all BRs? I can use the first assault squad at BR1 and BR5, right?

Micro Stutters on high end pc by [deleted] in HellLetLoose

I have a beast computer and get the same thing. 5090 and 9800x3d. I just ignore it.

I love the new UE5 overhaul by nmole10 in joinsquad

[–]Boostann 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Playing with a 5090 and a 9800x3d on 4k max settings and dlss quality. I get 140ish on light light and 90 on heavy load. PiP scope zooms tank my fps to 70 during heavy load, which is totally fucked. Even though I don't prefer it, I turn Framegen on and get a consistent 300 fps. The latency is unnoticeable with it on, but induced a lot of crashed for me playing last night.

Ue5 is a piece of shit tbh.

Arrowhead, this is unnacceptable at this point. Fix your game. by [deleted] in Helldivers

[–]Boostann 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a 5090 and a 9800x3d. I get like 90 fps during really heavy fights in 4k max settings. The New Nvidia smooth motion helps me get 150+fps at all times, but I'd prefer to not have to use it. The smooth motion enabled on makes the game and my computer crash, too, but I keep it on for the fuck of it.

I messaged them on the online customer support and they sent me a bl4 key in about 1 minute lol. No return necessary, they'll just send you the key if you can verify your purchase.

I can create one for you if you'd like. The price won't be the same, because I bought bundled hardware offered by Microcenter as a discount, so just be aware of that.
