Guestionable CPU and GPU performance?

Post by uscgpeterson »

I posted this in the regular x4 discussion area and I probably should have put it in Technical Support after some thinking lol so I apologize. I guess whichever one is in the wrong area will get deleted.

Specs:
i5-7300HQ 2.5ghz to 3.5ghz boost.
Intel Graphics 630.
Gtx 1060 Max-Q Overclocked with MSI +175 Core and +415 Memory. The core boost up to 1800+. Nvidia Control Panel Everything is set to prefer maximum performance and my power plan is set to high performance. I'm also using Razer Cortex it has boosted my frames alittle. I have to use v-sync due to screen tearing.
8Gb RAM
128Gb SSD
Windows 10
Game is running with direct x11

I have been search and searching and reading everything i can find on the internet but i cannot seem to find an answer.
I have been using FPS Monitor to monitor my in game performance. I discovered that my CPU averages between 50% and 70% it can occasionally jump to 100% on a core or 2 for a second. My GPU sits around 30% and i can't figure out if this is normal or not. My best guess is that I need more ram? Does anyone have any input? My frame rate is lowest around stations and the map at 28FPS and my higest is out in space and it gets close to 80FPS. I tried disabling my integrated graphics but my performance got worse which is super odd. It seems Nvidia Control Panel doesnt like to work right when its disabled. I am completely stumped. My performance does not change with any settings from low to ultra if there is a difference its a frame or 2. The only way I have found to increase my GPU % is to set MSAA or SSAA and then my frames drop. FXAA doesnt affect my frames.
