    Question Dual box WoW Classic...2080TI 75% GPU Utilization?

    Machine specs:
    R5 2600
    570x mobo
    16GB 3200 RAM
    EVGA 2080TI
    Samsung 970 EVO M.2

    I'm upgrading to a R7 3700x this weekend and I was thinking about maybe upgrading to 32GB RAM as well so I wanted to check out what my biggest area of improvement was RE: Hardware to avoid any bottlenecks.

    I was REALLY shocked to see that my 2080TI is operating at 75% load and everything else was under 40% (CPU/RAM).

    Is there something about running 4k primary window and 1080p secondary window that stresses out the GPU? COD MW at 4k with HDR and RTX on 2080TI hovers 30-35% utilization. Overwatch hovers between 20-25% at 4Ik ultra max everything settings.

    Boxing setup is ISBOXER
    1 account per monitor, primary monitor is 4k60, secondary is 1080p60, wow and isboxer set to limit fps to 60.

    Anti-aliasing can gimp the best graphics cards when running 5 instances. Use a slot-swap macro to ensure the slaves are not using anti-aliasing at all: https://youtu.be/KiyDPf7DCRs

    Seems about what I get

    I have an i9-9900K with a 1080Ti and 16GB RAM. I'm 5-boxing classic with my main on a 4k monitor and the 4 secondary's each @1200x800.

    I had all settings set to max ("10") with no AA (you really don't need AA at 4k resolution). I was noticing some stuttering on my secondary screens so I disabled SSAO - that took care of the problem for me. Just pulling up settings real quick on my main, that one setting takes me from ~30% GPU utilization to ~50% on just my main. (Alts each sit at 4-9% GPU each with SSAO disabled - but they're all sitting UC at the moment, so may not be the most demanding)

    I am curious to see how bad 5-boxing Classic-TBC will hit me once we get to Nagrand.

    I'll disable asap and see how that affects my GPU utilization, thanks!
