Frame rate(s) w/map vs CPU/GPU utilization

Question

Anyone else noted this? Flying out of Burlington Int'l KBTV. Overall resource utilization is low to begin with, but I've seen the following...

Map	FPS	CPU	GPU
OFF	19 - 22	28%	36%
ON	12 - 15	16%	24%

Computer utilization and frame rate both drop with an increase in loading - seems counter intuitive.

System: Asus Rampage V10 motherboard, i7-6850k uP, 32Gb DDR4, GTX-1080(2), 4K monitor, all SSD's, etc. All settings at max except alias at min.

Comments

I think XP don't like dual GPUs.

Answer 1

Not a direct answer to your question...but in the same vein.

I bought Gigabyte GTX 1080 - settings at 90% max - in 1080p resolution - i'm getting about 35-40 fps.

Is that normal???

I was really expecting something like 100+ at that rez.

Have a 4K monitor coming soon - i imagine that will be atrocious 10-15 fps.
