    EVGA GeForce 460GTX provides low GPU usage while playing bullet storm

    I am having a EVGA GeForce 460GTX and I play games very much. Among that I love plating Bullet storm a lot. But now the issue us that while playing bullet storm I have noticed that I get around 80-82% GPU usage. So I am not getting the GPU using as I expected with the new EVGA GeForce 460GTX.So is anyone experiencing the same thing as I am facing. If yes then do tell me the solution to get rid of this if you know one. I am waiting for your replies.

    I would like to the resolution on which you are playing game. This is because if you try to play the game with a 16:10 resolution like 1680x1050 then the game will not completely utilize your CPU and GPU. This is the problem which has been faced by many people playing bullet storm or similar kind of games. I wish that they will fix this issue immediately. Also you don’t have to worry about the card that you are using as for me there is nothing wrong with it.

    I am not very sure about the resolution issue. I think that there is not a problem with the 16:10 resolutions. As far as I am concerned I feel that if the CPU is not able to push the GPU fast enough then you get lower GPU usage. So the solution to get more GPU usage would be to increase AA or get a faster CPU. But while doing so I have seen that the shadow quality is kept low in the game menu. Also switching it to high seems to have done nothing. So if you wish then you can go for this solution.

    I feel that there is nothing wrong with the card and feel that the programmers have badly messed up with the graphic engine. I think that this is being done because the Unreal Engine 3 never had the support of AA.I have seen that without AA the game runs very well and runs at 62 fps .But then I enabled the AA and then I started to get the slowdown. And you won’t believe but the fps dropped to around 30 which were really low.

    According to me the problem of low GPU usage comes from low frame cap. This framecap hover at around 62 fps which is very much low as far as I am concerned. But don't worry about it. Also it has nothing to do with the card. And talking about the AA yes it is actually very weird. I am wondering if there is going to be some new drivers for it and looks good from the screens that I have seen. So let’s see how it goes.
