Just bought a game, playing my first map, i've noticed that my GPU (1050 ti) is constantly running at 100 % even though i'm just on 30-40 turns in a medium sized galaxy and there are almost no moving objects on the screen. It shows dedicated GPU memory usage 3.5 \ 4 gb. It's funny, because the recommendation regarding gpu is just 1 GB GPU RAM in Steam. CPU is sitting on ~25-30 % usage, RAM (16 GB) is at ~ 54%. By the way, fps is quite low for a 4x game, especially when zooming in. Has anyone experienced that ? Any ideas what can cause it ?
UPD: Started a new game (same settings, all medium) and opened performance tab - same thing, right from turn 1, GPU is at 100 % usage, using 3.6-3.7 gb dedicated gpu ram out of 4 gb. This is really weird.
UPD2: Did some testing, gpu is at 100 % whenever i'm zoomed in on the area of sector which i have a vision of (not in a fog of war) and fps drops down to 40-50. If i zoom out significantly or zoom in on fow it's fine, gpu is not stressed and fps is around 100. Could, perhaps, the galaxy background be streesing gpu so much (the moving clouds\nebula etc.) ?
If it helps:
CPU i5 10400f
GPU geforce 1050 ti (4gb vram)
latest drivers
16 gb ram
windows 10 version 22h2
galaxy settings: all on medium.
video settings: no AA, no particles, resolution 1080 hd
