Hi.
I don't know if I am alone with this problem but I have software that monitors the GPU utilization percentage and while running STO I alt tabbed out to see how STO handles dual core graphics cards.
Usage on GPU core 1 was 98-100% and the graph showed similar numbers.
Usage on GPU core 2 was 0% and had been so for the entire time because the graph had not moved an inch.
If I close STO and start say, left 4 dead 2 or a benchmarking tool called furmark both GPU's start working @ 98-100% immidiately so there is nothing wrong with the card.
It simply seems like STO can and will only use one GPU core at the moment, yes I know we're in beta.
My setup:
AMD Phenom II 965BE @ 3,8 ghz
4gb 1333 ddr3 ram
ATi HD5970 2gb 900/1200 OC @ catalyst 9.12
Windows 7 64 bit ultimate.
Also, worth noting is that the game works perfectly even running on one core instead of two even at max settings @ 1920x1200.
