Hi everyone,
First of all, thank you for reading me, It's my first time ever creating a thread and I hope you guys can help me figure out what's going on. I've been googling this for weeks now, but no solution could help me out.
When I bought my gear less than 2 years ago, I usually had around 70% usage of both CPU and GPU in intensive games such as Assassin's Creed Origins. I also had an average 280FPS on CSGO without any kind of fps drops but never monitored hardware while playing it. Everything was fine. I could run any game without worrying about temps and/or Harware usage.
I had a moment where I stopped playing these games and I started playing Valorant and a bit of League Of Legends. These were my main games. (I get and average 280-240 FPS in Valorant in max settings) But something like 4 weeks ago I wanted to get back to CSGO, and noticed that my FPS are around 60FPS ??? While monitoring my hardware on MSI afterburner, I could tell that my CPU Usage is around 7% on CSGO. Though, my GPU is permanently on 99% -98% ?? What the hell is going on ? I thought it was just CSGO going nuts. But I noticed that recently when I installed Genshin Impact, my GPU usage was VERY inconsistent staying at 60% some moments but spiking UP and DOWN from 99% to 0% Especially when teleporting to another part of the map, and I expercience a few Frame drops (2 to 6 FPS) every minute. I mean, this would not make me wonder if my gear was potatoe. But I am actually using a 1080ti with i7-8086K without any kind of OC on any of them.
Since I uninstalled Assassin's creed origins for a moment now, I still had MAFIA 3 to see if the same problem was up there. Well, CPU usage is at an average of 40% wich seems a bit lower than before...
I thought Benchmarking my hardware would help me figure out or at least make me feel better about my hardware health so I did :
-Benchmark my CPU on CINEBENCH : Latest score => 1420cb with consistent 100% cpu usage and a max temp of 60°C (Though my room is very cold)
-Benchmark my GPU on SUPERPOSITION Benchmark : Latest score => 5394 with Average FPS of 40.32, with consistent max usage 99% and highest temp at 65°C (Starting from 35°C)
I tried :
-DDU my graphic card drivers and reinstalling them manually (Improved a bit performance and genshin impact, but might be just placebo)
-Reinstalling windows without losing data and apps.
PS: I reinstalled windows because CSRSS.EXE was using 30% of the gpu's 3d processor when i was watching a stream on discord...
Thank you guys for any sort of help you're trying to come up with. And I hope this could help anyone else.
