High CPU Usage and Low Performance in Path of Exile 2

I've tried every single fix under the sun and nothing has helped unfortunately. Every time i load into a map my game will shoot upwards to 2k+ CPU and ill freeze for about 3-5 seconds and die to the first monster (lost plenty of T14+ maps because of that)

I'm using a 3050 with a 5800x


For anyone having issues, Here are all of the fixes Ive tried. They may help someone out:

Messed with all of the settings in-game and turned them to low

Verified files on steam

Re-downloaded the game

put --waitforpreload in steams launch options

Set my power plan to High performance

Set POE to high performance in the graphics settings in windows

Changed global/trade chats to empty ones (4 number channels so do /global 9999 and /trade 9999)

Went into the config folder and turned all of the sounds off

Limited the CPU usage in task manager (also downloaded poeuncrasher which pretty much does that for you if i'm not mistaken)

Downloaded updates for both my CPU and GPU and updated BIOS.

Fresh install of windows


Literally everything i came across. The only one i couldn't try was the standalone client for POE2 because the launcher doesn't download very quick and i was getting about 110kb per second.

The good news is all of these attempts to get the game working for POE made games that were already running fine run much much better so i guess that's a plus.

Do you update windows after fresh install? If yes, do you can try to fresh install windows and do not update it?

Такая же проблема. Нашел такой вариант в Интернете, в Steam в параметрах запуска прописать -useallavailablecores, это позволит игре использовать все ядра процессора.
Не гарантирую безопасность, но мне немного помогло.
P.S. Практически исправило зависание установка ограничения кадров в секунду на 60 и герцовку монитора в 60 Гц. Картинка хуже, но играбельнее

Реально рабочая схема, автору респект!!!

Yeah, this game it's not ready to be played, i can't even play the endgame bcs i only get 40 fps max on maps and i've tried everything i could but nothing seems to work. It's crazy the released this game without optimising it
