Struggling with Performance Issues on a High-End PC

-

Hey fellow Helldivers! I’m in a bit of a bind here and could really use your help. Despite having a powerful setup with a 3090 GPU, an Intel Core i9-10900K running at 4.9 GHz, 64GB of fast RAM, and an SSD, I can barely hit 30 FPS while playing. According to Task Manager, my CPU load is constantly at 100%, which is baffling. I know Helldivers 2 can be CPU-intensive, but I feel like I’m missing something obvious. I’ve put in almost 150 hours and love the game, but my patience is running thin. Any tips or fixes for improving my performance? Thanks a lot!

Have you tried limiting your FPS to 30? It might help stabilize performance if it’s struggling to stay above that.

No, I haven’t set any FPS limiter. Should I give that a shot?
