CPU 100% usage after patch

I have the same issue. Even in main menu CPU usage is 100%
Same issue here, with a decent processor. Played POE on this computer for many years without issues before.

Does anyone have a solution?
Are you guys sure your default graphics processor in WINDOWS is set to GPU?

This can be different than what shows in game.


Windows key > graphics settings > Add Path of Exile

After the app is added click on it and change the Graphics preference to the GPU.

No problems usual. Only stutters like 3-5 seconds when i login game newly / start of mapping. After that 117FPS steady.
Hi there i may have found one issue for this.
I had my energysaving settings in windows changed, but there was a mistake:

CPU Mininum usage was on 100% instead of 1%
CPU Maximum also on 100% (which is correct)

That caused the Problem that my CPU had no space to operate on Gaming.

Maybe this will Help some ppl. because after chanign it to 1% my Game runs like a charm.

U can repost this on Reddit or whatever :)
