Question Why won’t the game use more of my CPU/GPU for higher FPS?

0 Upvotes

Have a Ryzen 7 9800X3D and a 5070ti with 32GB DDR5 (EXPO enabled) and seem to get about ~180fps during combat on high settings (not highest).

When I check my task manager however, I see that my CPU and GPU are both well below 30% usage.

Any reason why the game isn’t using more of my cpu/gpu for higher fps? I probably won’t notice the difference between 180fps to 280fps (monitor limit) but still curious as to why the game or my computer isn’t using the cpu/gpu more?

Edit: FPS is in 1440p resolution for context

Question Did they get rid of skill-based matchmaking?

Title basically. Can't find an answer to this. Iron banner matches are all over the place this past week.

Question Visibility tips for 6v6?

0 Upvotes

Coming back to destiny with a few friends since the announcement. Been having an absolute blast mostly in dungeons, gm alerts, and some comp. But something I’ve been struggling with in iron banner this week is just particle effects and visibility. Maybe I’m just getting old, terrifying, but I don’t feel like it’s a huge problem for me in most content. But this week in iron banner I feel like I can barely see what’s in front of me with all the stasis and strand on screen. Basically just wondering if there’s some secret graphics settings etc that might help or some way yall are dealing with it! This is not a complaint post, just asking for some advice coming back to the game :)

Question What’s your favorite hand cannon for PVP?

9 Upvotes

I’ve recently been getting into PvP, and have many different cannons, with their respective “god rolls.”

Which ones do y’all prefer? As of now, I prefer the Eyseluna with 100 stability, but I may be missing better ones.

Question is truth & hazardous propulsion a good combo?

3 Upvotes

another question here, this time for titan!

I've tested this build and it does a good chunk of dps & damage, but I've seen that it doesn't stack with well or radiant.

Is it still a good build to run, despite the fact?

I saw somewhere that an option is to just not stand in the well, for example, so it doesn't lower the weapon buff. But then, of course, I'd be losing out on the other perks of that.

I've always been a void main on my Titan and I was wanting to do something with twilight arsenal (don't have stoicism yet to do a pris build, but I'll get there eventually).

This is one, if not the only build I've seen using regular void that incorporates it for solid dps.

Discussion PLEASE recommend me an easy to use hunter build with good survivability.

38 Upvotes

I’m raiding with a new light friend and they just cannot stay alive for the life of them. They’re just straight vaccuming our res tokens at this point. What’s an easy to pilot hunter setup that they can obtain with relative ease? (Lax stat requirements preferred)

Question Clan-related triumphs when you're not in a clan.

0 Upvotes

How/where can I get a fireteam to do a clan challenge when I'm not in a clan?

Seems like you could easily get three people (for example for a dungeon) and form a temp clan to complete the triumph to get the title.

BUT the fireteam finder does not have any consideration for this, and all of these reddits seem to prohibit making posts soliciting this.

SO I'm not soliciting this. I'm just wondering how/where I can.

Can anyone tell me? Weird niche thing in D2 'needs' that seems really hard to fill.

Question Armor Synthesis shows up as “Inoperable”, how to fix?

My friend can’t get his ornaments thing to work and it’s popping up as inoperable, is there a reason for this and how do we get it to work? Can’t post a picture for some reason but that’s what it’s saying. I’ve never seen this before.

Question Why couldn't tiers and crafting co-exist?

177 Upvotes

I have always wondered why we couldn't have both for the same weapon. With crafting, you would only have one perk in each slot, but if you wanted the luxury of being able to swap between perks on-the-fly, you would grind for T5s. What was the reason why this could not have been done?

Question Edge of Fate Campaign

0 Upvotes

Is there a good reason to do this campaign ? None of my friends seem to have any interest in doing it... anything important that I am missing from this? Finished up Renegades but now no one is interested in doing the other campaign.

Discussion I wish there could be a patch for the Ether Resupply public event

87 Upvotes

Every time I’m on Nessus or in the EDZ during a Distortion, and that event pops up, I have to pray that the other players in the area know the whole “don’t-damage-the-boss-too-quickly-or-the-event-will-soft-lock” glitch. It’s just frustrating is all. I hope that Bungie gives us a patch with all the unvaulting that going to happen.
