Recently I have been experiencing very slow performance in-game. At first I thought it was actually the game engine causing the problems but now coming to the conclusion it may actually be a hardware issue on my behalf. I have a pretty decent build that consists of an i5-7500, MSI GTX 1660, 16GB DDR4 RAM, and a 350 watt PSU. After checking my task manager I’ve become very concerned with my CPU performance after noticing that my average CPU utilisation whilst not playing any games was around 60% with it spiking up to around 80% occasionally, this is whilst browsing chrome for example. When playing a game like Fortnite I experience non-stop lag spikes and frame drops, as well as rendering issues which makes the game literally unplayable. After checking task manager whilst the game was open I was faced with 100% CPU utilisation which I found very concerning and also noticing that the CPU was running 233 processes which I’m not sure is a bad thing or not. If anybody could help me out it would be greatly appreciated!
