Hey, recently everytime i launch an application my cpu usage shoots up to about 80% usage and stays well above 40% with anything open but stays at <3% idle (i should also state that it is the .exe file that is eating up all the usage). But with the high cpu usage with any application open it's slowing down my computer alot and everything i searched has not helped whatsoever, I'm not insanely computer savvy but i know my way around somewhat, it seems like a hardware problem but my hardware seems to check out fine with all the tests i have conducted. And my cpu temp doesn't go above 50 degrees even during the huge spike. I have also run multiple virus and malware scans just to find nothing. I have updated all my drivers which there was only one and it didn't help one bit. I seriously have no clue what is going on and just want it fixed so i can get back to playing games and enjoying my computer.
i run a intel i7 920 cpu overclocked to 3.1 ghz (haven't had any problems with the overclock whatsoever)
an asus p6t board (i feel like this is causing the problem but have no solid evidence)
corsair tx 750w psu
msi twin frozr nvidia geforce gtx 570 gpu
and 12gb of corsair 1600 mhz memory (can't remember the model at the moment, also this has been starting to appear in high usage recently from the svchost.exe which after a google search is a needed process for windows)
and my cpu is water cooled by the corsair h80
Any help would be very much appreciated
And if you need any additional information you only need ask. i will do whatever it takes to get this fixed even if i do have to replace have the parts in my computer.
