I have a gtx 980m, it usually could run dying light on max settings at 60% gpu usage with vsync on at 60 fps .I'm not really sure if it's the runtimes or directx I've installed from my recent game's package or if it's the game itself but now I have my game running the gpu on full load while causing fps drops which causes it to overheat. the cpu isnt holding it back as Dying light isnt really a cpu demanding game, the cpu is constantly on 20-40%. I've tried playing other games to see if this issue is still affecting other games. I tried GTA V, everything was fine. vsync was on, it was on max settings and at a constant 60 fps at 70% load until I turned on msaa, it dropped to 40 fps at 100% load. When I turned it off, it continued to stay at 100% load at 40 fps. I dont think its ram cause there isnt any demanding background processes nor do I think it is the reading speed of the hard drive it has as it has 30 gb free space. What is the problem?
