Games crashing randomly due to spike in gpu usage?

[nedholasbolden]

Gday lads been tryna play games like fortnite pubg and csgo but whenever mid game there is a random spike in gpu usage where it goes from around 40 percent usage and for a split second it spikes to 100 percent and then back down but everytime it happens the game crashes, any fix to this?

The game crashes or the entire PC crashes? It can be several things but we can try to isolate the problem. Which is your PSU?

I have a Cooler Master - MWE 500W 80+ Certified ATX Power Supply and its only the game that crashes.

Which is your graphics card?

You can clean install the drivers. Remove them with DDU and then install them again.

Your GPU and PSU combo is fine, try the clean driver installation.

Didnt seem to work, 100 percent gpu spike now happens sooner then before, still game crashes and usage goes back to around 40 ish percent, cpu percentage also spikes to 100 percent for a split second

I think that if it is affecting more than one component your motherboard or power supply can be failing, but if that are the only problematic games it can be corruption of redistributable packages or who knows.

Is it a major inconvenience to reinstall Windows for you?

Already reinstalled twice and nothing really changed

Then the MoBo or PSU seem to be failing.
