Idle

I know EVERYONE asks "wait, what is this process, how come I'm idling with high CPU usage?!" but I have exhausted all internet solutions I can find here, and I work in IT. My server at home is an old Lenovo E32 with an i5 4590S, 12GB of DDR3 1600, an EVGA 500W G3 PSU, a GTX 1060 and a decent...

Hello all, I have spent the best part of a week attempting to sort out my current computer problem, but have had limited success and now am reaching out to you for help. As of 1 week ago my computer has been having issues with my CPU randomly, on idle, with an unchanged voltage, skyrocket in...

Hello guys, I recently upgraded my motherboard and AIO (specs below). After installation, my CPU temperature did not improve and it got about 4-5 Celsius higher. I checked fan speeds, they are performing fine and I recently dusted out the system. I plugged the AIO Pump into the Pump header...

Hey everyone, I just bought a Zotac RTX 2070 Super AMP Extreme and I've noticed that my fans are always at 29% even I'm idling or just browsing the internet and that's it, my temp is normally 35C. Even my old GTX 1060 Amp Extreme stays at 0% in 45C. Any help will be appreciated. Is there any...

Hi, I’ve been getting into undervolting recently and I found it super beneficial with my 1080 Ti Aorus, non-extreme as I like my PC quiet and run my fans on low RPM, due to this the GPU can sometimes hit 80°+ underneath max load. Undervolting made a world of difference as my card is now...

Hi people! So, my recently-acquired Ryzen 5 3600 clocks at 3.6Ghz all the time. I previously had an i5 6600k and before that, an i7 3770; both of which dropped in frequency whenever the system didn't need that much power. Now my 3600 keeps its regular clock at all times, even when idling. And...

Hi, i have a Zotac GeForce GTX 970 which i purchased december 2015. Recently, the fans have been going haywire whenever i start the PC up. Im used to the loud noise because of the CPU starting up however this noise is coming from the GPU and it continues for ages. In fact my computer has been...

Basically what it says in the title, I noticed one day that my gpu fans and system fans were screaming while computer was in sleep. It was hot in the room so I assumed it was that, but upon waking up I saw the temps go down. Ive tried messing with power options and such to make it go away but...

Hello. I have a Zotac GTX 1070 8GB. It always had a low clock speed while idle, but today it's stuck at 1518mhz gpu and 3802mhz memory clock speed. I've had this problem before and I fixed it by doing a clean driver install with DDU. This time it didn't work. Nvidia In game overlay is off and...

Title sums it up pretty well. I'm upgrading my PC soon and I really like the minimalist aesthetic of NZXT's H500i, but I am concerned that my thermals might downgrade since the front panel is blocked. I don't really mind that the case is smaller, but it would be a dealbreaker if my thermals go...

I have 2 corsair vengeance lpx 8gb sticks running at 2400mhz and I'm using 5gbs of memory or more just idling. I can't find what's causing this in the task manager, however it may be a multitude of things.

I've benn having this issue with my 970 where it randomly locks it self to performance state 0 at 135-162mhz and even under stress wont get back to normal speeds. it has happend 3 times before in a span of a year but now happens every two days and after trying many things (Driver uninstaller...

My CPU (i7 6700K) is 45-63c while idling, is that normal? I have not applied thermal paste yet since i have only recently build it in

I have overclocked my ryzen 2600 to 4.0Ghz using 1.2375v in the BIOS. However, recently I saw that in CPU-z, HWInfo, HWMonitor that the Core voltage is shown as 1.232. The strange thing is that on idle in those programs say the core voltage is 1.232 when the cpu is idle or its usage is less than...

So my gpu a gtx 570 is going to p2 randomly and then it wont go either up to full clock or go down to idle clock, i have tested the usual suspects, temps, reinstalled drivers several times, downloaded programs to see if the perfcap reason was power but it keeps saying that its the gpu thinking...

Hi All, Just curious on my idle temp, my cpu is R3 1200 running at stock speed and cooler, an Asrock B350m mobo, RX 580 Nitro+, and 6 Case Fans. I wonder if my idle temp is quite high as shown above? understand the general idle temps for R3 1200 at stock is around 35-38 C and given my...

So I bought a hyperx revolution s. When I plug it in with the audio controller the mic sounds awful. But when I plug it in the audio jacks or whatever, the mic is great. I’ve tried all my usb ports
