Im playing a modpack with cobblemon and create, on a low-mid tier pc, (4060, 12400f, 16gb ddr4) and I have had decent performance with shaders, a few drops but nothing unplayable at 60fps. However, there are times when I open an inventory and my fps drops to 3-5. I have no idea why it happens, but it stops when I reduce GPU utilization from 90-100% to 30-40%(no shaders, low render distance), so its probably gpu related. The confusing part is that there are other times when I have the same high gpu utilization, and the inventories work perfectly fine with no issues. This problem happens more often in villages than out in the open. Then, while troubleshooting, I noticed that even without shaders, on 7 render distance, my GPU util spikes from around 25% to 60-70% just by turning and looking in the direction of a chest, even if its empty. Why is my gpu util so hard to manage? Is this a specific mod issue, or just too taxing for my pc? The only way to avoid the fps drops is to make my game look horrible on 4 render distance even though I've played modpacks on 12 render distance with shaders and had 0 issues until this recent modpack (custom). Having JEI or not doesnt effect the issue, and I have modernfix with the config options for item rendering on, as well as a few other opti mods. What can I do?
