High CPU Usage and Low Performance in Path of Exile 2

Same issue here, 100% cpu usage on loading screen and freeze my cpu sometime

Guys I am still having this problem. Has a solution been found or are we waiting for an update ?

My cpu usage was always through the roof and I managed to get it down to around 20% even in delirium with a ton of particles.

Even if you don't use them, try disabling Nvidia Overlay AND Steam Overlay.

This worked for me. GL

No, no updates. Hopefully something soon. Desperately need some type of optimization. Ppl posting in here of their fix are mostly user error.
game is basically unplayable.

+1

90fps+ in hideout, and often dropping to below 20fps in fights.

Scaling resolution down to the lowest or changing any other graphics settings doesn't help get any more performance at all.

None of the other fixes proposed by people like changing the chat channel or updating BIOS worked for me.

I also get areas where my game completely freezes below 1fps, like in the hourglass room of Sekhema Trial floor 2. Seems like something weird is going on with shaders or CPU.

Some maps feel butter smooth and other maps just have my CPU struggling. I feel that as well.

I'm all for improved graphics but I wish optimisation was the priority. People used to and still play Diablo 2. Clearly graphics are welcomed but not the make all be all for a game.
