im getting around %50 usage on gpu %20 on cpu
gpu rtx 4060
cpu i7 12700H
i literally bought new laptop to have better fps, now this 😅
Hello there @MotMomet, I have tried replicating your low GPU usage issue with only Iris and Sodium, but to no avail. Can you share a screenshot showing your F3 menu in-game?
sure here.
btw i updated my mods to latest versions iris, sodium, indium and distant horizons
GPU usage as reported by Minecraft is nearing maximum utilization. Can you confirm it again via Task Manager?
ok here.
btw in high end games my temp getting around 75 degrees and my gpu watt usage around 120
in mc i get 50 degrees and 50 watt aswell
:Render_Thinking:
@IMS is the GPU usage indicator in Minecraft trustworthy, or there's something else at play here?
also my laptop doesn't even make plane noises like other games, when im running minecraft haha
idk why
This is expected
Task manager reports usage of all cores including RT accelerator cores while Minecraft reports usage of only rasterization cores
OpenGL cannot make use of RT cores
For this reason the F3 menu is more reliable
Your fps is about what I’d expect also
but my pc just doesn heat up at all as normal
its running like office mode
normally the fans should go woooo
With other games, right?
yes
Minecraft can’t use RT cores so your GPU isn’t actually working as hard
The other games you’re thinking of likely do
but like 50 degrees is okay? it is normally 75 around because
and the watt usage
its 50
normally 130, i feel like the game not using the gpu at all
idk much but i just feel like
Doesn't matter
my 4070 Super also doesn't have its RT cores used and yet it draws the full up to 242W under load
If anything I would blame this one on how the laptop may be running in a more power throttled mode given that this is a mobile 4060 and not the desktop version
Does this happen when plugged into the charger as well?
Having scrolled up to read the previous messages, yes, from my personal experience the in-game indicator is very much accurate
You could also run HWiNFO for an in-depth view on things
yes
it also spikes up sometimes like when i go different ares my fps goes to 30-40 then it back to normal like 70-80 fps but in that time GPU usage and watt also spikes up to like %75 and 90 watt
ill try that later
thanks
mine as reference
i might should deactivate the optimization mods first
to see if the problem is mods or pc
important to add is also that the load itself can matter
resizing my game window to be even smaller than 1080p windowed (normally running 1440p fullscreen/borderless) can end up not quite reaching the power limit as it very well becomes a cpu bound scenario instead
without some optimization mods
with some optimization mods
these are without physics mod ↑
and this with physics mod + optimization mods
so the problem is physics mod?
i managed to get %96 usage
with pyhsics mod less fps less gpu usage
i get the less fps but why less gpu usage 😅
Physics mod is heavy on the CPU
So the drop in GPU usage is most likely because of your CPU bottlenecking your GPU from the increased demand
but cpu usage also %10?
Minecraft is primarily single-threaded
You will usually only see close to 100% usage with Distant Horizons and the CPU load set to the max
look at the individual core usage with HWiNFO
hmm btw in the physics mod setting there is an option something like that. So how this bottlenecking happens? never had that before
is msi afterburner works?
bottlenecks are a misused term but you aren't too far off
That’s how many threads are dedicated to physics mod calculations afaik
RTSS might be able to provide the info
Best to keep it at default
is this what u want me to do?
oh my türk guy, you bought for minecraft or its regular change? looks rt cores are important for some games like minecraft
looks rt cores are important for some games like minecraftthe opposite, as I explained above OpenGL, the rendering API Minecraft runs on, cannot utilize RT cores at all so ray tracing is done on rasterization cores
