[CK3] Unplayable Lag When Declaring GHWs On A 9700K High-End Processor

[iyankov96]

Hello,

I've been having a huge problem with declaring Great Holy Wars in the 1150s. Once I declare a GHW my CPU utilization goes to 100% on every single core and the game becomes so slow that it takes over 20 seconds for the game to process 1 single day.

I tried following the suggestions that were given on the forums - namely completely reinstalling the game, setting exceptions in firewall and deleting both CK3 folders in Documents and Steam, yet the issue persists.

It can't be an issue with the processor itself, because I haven't had any problems of this type playing other games or running other CPU-demanding applications.

I am going to post my system, error DxDiag and pdx_settings logs so that, hopefully, we can identify the issue a bit easier.

Thanks!

P.S.
I just noticed that I also get stuttering every other second. This is likely due to me having conquered 90+% of the CK3 map (going for a World Conquest) so I wonder if there's anything that can be done about this issue as well.

If you only get this when an empire occupies large parts of the map, and there's for instance a civil war or mass rebellion so a LOT of units on the map, that is a reported problem with this game. You should be able to find threads in that n Bug Reports.

Please add your affected save game to one of those threads, or make your own new thread there.

Sorry about that!
