    So I recently installed a new Intel I9, 9900kf with hopes of seeing big FPS gains over my previous 4 core I3 processor while running the game with traffic. I was sort of disappointed to see the game still only running about 35 fps. What I find weird is the cpu hovers around 80 percent, GPU around 60, and RAM is nowhere near close to being an issue. CPU is staying cool at around 58 degrees C. What could be the bottle neck in this setup?

    Maybe turn off v-sync & g-sync if you have one?

    I have a GeForce 1660 Super, it sits around 60% while playing Beam, no issues there

    Your GPU *should* be the bottleneck, under typical circumstances. I have a 2070 and a 9900kf, and the GPU is the bottleneck unless I use ~>12 cars.

    Under what circumstances, exactly, are you only getting 35? Map, car(s), graphics settings..?

    Ok so I updated my drivers for everything this morning, without dynamic reflections I can run 12 cars at 45 FPS, so the GPU was the bottle neck and it just wasnt reading right for whatever reason. I appreciate the help though! Other than dynamic reflections everything is as high as they can go(except for tire marks amount) I was playing on east coast USA with 12 AI cars

    Use high not ultra and put dynamic reflections refresh rate to 1.
