    CSRSS.EXE high GPU usage

    Here I am again with an update. The above did work but not for long. I did some more digging and just for lolz I lightly overclocked my cpu (4770k) to about 3.8ghz, because I read that CPU can be a bottleneck. That was Friday evening and I've not had the problem at all since. So it appears...
