What setting is using alot of the CPU?

Hi, i get some good fps in this game, but sometimes i can see with the console command r_stats that my cpu cant keep up, so is there a especially demanding graphic setting that uses alot of the cpu?.

don't know exactly, but maybe the new infestation, put it in low

Yeah okay thanks:), i have a I7 920 3.8 ghz and a Ati 5970. Its often late game or in big battles i get fps drop.

I tested some settings now, it didnt seem like any difference turning infestian to minimal or some of the other settings (bloom and ambient occlusion i had off already) except when i tryed to turn off shadows. That seems to give my fps a good boost and my cpu.

The games broke pretty much atm.

Im on an i5 3570k @ 4.4 ghz, 560 gtx, 8gb ram, 1680x1050 res, and I have to play with everything off, with only texture streaming on, multicore rendering and textures high, everything else just drops my fps constantly.

I can max BF3 and Borderlands 2. This game just needs more optimization I think :). I get constant 60 fps from start to end with said settings above though, so all is good.

Yeah im at 1680x1050 resolution too, and get good fps now too, but with texture streaming on i get worse fps.

I have found fps drop heavily late game and I think a lot is to do with the game logic/lua rather than visual settings.
