Question / Help Higher CPU Usage /w Game Capture on Win 8.1

reddy?

I used to have around 30% CPU usage playing APB up to 40%. Now it's up to 50% and the game just feels really choppy. I feel like maybe Microsoft changed their DirectX binaries again?

Other than needing to enable CFR I don't see any issues within the log file. I assume the game runs normally when you aren't streaming?
 
Ya it's very smooth when not streaming. And it was smooth in the past while streaming as well. I just started streaming again recently and it's just super laggy/stuttery.

Is it recommended to run CFR?
 
Yes, CFR is a default setting. Does the problem happen with other games? Can you run APB in windowed/borderless windowed mode and try with window capture?
 
It happens in CS:GO as well. Very stuttery.

There is no borderless window option, but with just windowed mode and window capture it's a lot smoother. But as you can imagine...I don't like the window around the game when I play :(.
 
google the properties for csgo, if im not wrong it should be -windowed -borderless takes you probably not more than 10 seconds to find out when using google
