    [SOLVED] i7-9700k 100% CPU usage when gaming

    Thanks for the response! I have slowly begun to come to the same conclusion. Before this I had a i7-4770k and I remember I could play on high settings and stream, while only hitting 70-80% CPU usage. Now any time I load a game, or get in an intense place to render, I lag because it hits 100%...

    [SOLVED] i7-9700k 100% CPU usage when gaming

    I have game bar off and as far as the background, I do not have it on slideshow so it's just 1 image, there is no timer on it like slideshow.

    [SOLVED] i7-9700k 100% CPU usage when gaming

    Temps stay low, I have never seen them get past 80 even when I was stress testing my OC. Under load on a game they're around 60, but if they stay under load they will creep up to 70 or so. As far as malware, I just scanned with malwarebytes free version and it found nothing. I have attached...

    [SOLVED] i7-9700k 100% CPU usage when gaming

    I updated the chipset a few months ago when I initially was troubleshooting it and there was no change. Again last night I updated all drivers, the chipset, and the BIOS and it still seems the same, maybe a little better. I don’t use in game overlays and as far as the game bar thing, I’ve got...

    [SOLVED] i7-9700k 100% CPU usage when gaming

    Just the game itself will show that it’s using 80%+ of the CPU. The rest of the use is a few percent here and there for discord, chrome, etc. when I’m not in a game, CPU sits idle at <10% with no spikes or anything. Also, no, I haven’t tried to scan for malware.

    [SOLVED] i7-9700k 100% CPU usage when gaming

    Hey All, Having an issue with my CPU where when I’m gaming, just about any game will spike my CPU to 100%. At first, I thought it was just CoD/Warzone (where I first noticed it/it’s the worst), but then I started to notice in other games. CoD, Warzone, Tarkov, Rocket League, no matter what I...

    i7 4770k unstable at 4.2GHz, need help

    I am very new to overclocking but have read a lot/messed with everything a lot and still can't seem to get it to be stable. I just want to OC to 4.2 (or 4.5, wasn't sure if my cooler could handle 4.5 though) at least to get some better performance out of the expensive chip I bought for this...

    PC speed and performance has slowed considerably, need help fixing..

    I haven't checked that in a while to be honest. Before when I had paid closer attention (when I had to due to streaming more) my temps were always safe, never surpassing 80 degrees C. GPU, not too sure.
