I recently started playing Crysis 3 on my 4 year old PC, and the game lags heavily at places [Lol].
Be it in whichever resolution, the fps was virtually the same. A CPU bottleneck, as expected.
I took a look at my CPU and GPU usage. CPU both cores pushed to 100%. GPU was fluctuating from 50 to 80 depending on the area I was.
So I was just wondering which all settings are CPU demanding.
For example, "Grass Instance Animation Distance" put stress on CPU [I figured that out noticing fps drops when looking towards moving grass]. I lowered it using system.cfg file. Certainly improved things.
Thanks in Advance,
Rick
