澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:The Last of Us Part 1 on PC has released yet another performance patch, but players largely 🎃report that the big issue affecting CPU usage persists.

The latest Last of Us Part 1 patch for the PC port reportedly weighs in at around 14 GB provided you're caught up on th𒀰e earlier updates. According to the official , it targets "performance, user experience, visuals, and more," and includes "platform and hardware-specific fixes."

The notes detail a laundry list of fixes for specific crashes, issues related to textures, animations, and UI, and various other bugs. Most notably, 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Naughty Dog says the patch includes "updated texture streaming🐈 to ไreduce CPU usage."

From the beginning, one of♑ the m♋ost prominent complaints heard from The Last of Us Part 1 players on PC has been the weirdly high CPU and memory demands, with frequent reports of up to 100% usage and unreasonably long shader compiling times on high-end hardware. And while today's patch sounds encouraging for those dealing with visual issues and crashes, early reports suggest there's still a ways to go before the performance problems are fully resolved.

I got my big break here in 2019 with a freelance news gig, and I was hired on as GamesRadar's west coast Staff Writer in 2021.
