It's a problem of the menu, I don't know if it's not limited or something but it forces the GPU at max.

Rarely have problems with high end games, I can play rdr2,cyberpunk,ect.
Whats with this games issue of high gpu usage, almost 99% just on the main menu.
Seen other post about similar if not the same issue, i have Vsync and 120 fps toggled. I do not wish to lower to 60 fps.

I'm not 100% myself why you're experiencing this (I play with a 3060 myself) but our tech support can help you troubleshoot this if you wish to try.

I sent a ticket a while ago and I got no answer.

It happens on the EGS version as well.
Load screen 20-25% CPU, GPU 40-43% CPU - temperature increases from 30 degrees to 60 degrees in two minutes.
Hosting a game, waiting 99% usage is typical for CPU and GPU.
Heating up the room by 3-7 degrees! as the PC is overloaded for no reason.
Oddly, go into the spell book while your hosting a game, waiting for a player. And there is a 5-10% drop in GPU usage, and a small decrease in CPU usage.

Update: I lowered all the video settings and game play settings I know related to fix OMD2 co-op from crashing. And OMD3 is using less resources. 20% CPU and 30-38% GPU.

Too bad though if you want to play on high or ultra. unlimited or 120 FPS. That seems to be the primary settings that cause this problem.

Playing now, put all the graphics settings, game play settings to low or none where applicable.
Normal playing is better, no more high speed fan noises and room temperature increasing due to the hardware been pushed to cooking, waiting for a co-op buddy.

Level 49-50 endless 'Untrained grounds' is lagged. CPU is around 70% and GPU around 30% averaging.
Sure the graphics are not smooth, some textures are bland.
However jump around at the start of a round is super lagged, end up a few squares away.

Sadly that's not the solution, you're only making it easier for your GPU, but the source of the problem is still there. I hope the devs would fix this issue, but they don't seem to care about something that doesn't make the game unplayable. So bugs that harm the experience like rounds after 100 and the unlimited frames won't be solved (probably, because those bugs have been there for +14 years since the first game).
