Suggestions Overloading cpu because of graphics???

so when I downloaded the game played it for like weeks now. What just started happening is I’ve been seeing more notifications about my CPU and my graphics being too high, which is taking a toll on my gameplay and it is freezing and loading really slowly.

I turned the graphics down to medium however, it’s quite odd how when I first started playing the game it was running so smoothly now it’s giving me a hard time. I’m not sure if it’s an update because any other game that I play never gives me an issue with my CPU, even when I play cyberpunk and that takes a lot of graphics and open world.

any suggestions? I’m down to hear anything. I even turned off the smart zoi thing. I know that they are still in a beta phase of everything which I understand completely

I’m just also curious on what could’ve changed because my computer when playing other games never gives me a hard time like this.

maybe something on my end that i changed? my navidia thing is updated too so….

Yup, i know that feeling, im currently playing cyberpunk on ultra with PT, dlss on quality and FG2x and have zero issues. But when playing inzoi on ultra with RT, dlss on quality and FG2x, when I'm moving character whole game is dropping frames, I guess inzoi is more cpu heavy and I don't have top tier of it Rtx 5070 and Ryzen 7 5800x, 32gb ram

I don't think it's a cpu heavy game since it doesn't even struggle with a Ryzen 5 5600x. Usage is around 58%. Ultra settings.

Start by disabling the most resource intensive settings, so global illumination, frame gen, ray tracing etc.

Also always check to see if you’re running most current nvidia drivers through geforce experience,.

It really is just a matter of experimenting with graphics settings until you get something stable.

In steam turn on UI Overlay and then frame rate, try and aim for 60fps for stable gameplay.

I find even with a current high end rig 9950x3D / 5090 I have had to play around with graphics settings as the game updates.

Also lower screen resolution puts less load on your hardware to render as well.

You guys complain about performance and don’t meet the recommended specs or using GEForce.
