High cpu usage in game

Hi everyone,

I recently built a new system with the following specs:

• Intel Core i3-12100F with stock cooler

• AMD Radeon RX 5700XT

• Biostar H610M HP motherboard

600-watt power supply

The problem is that my CPU usage is at 100% during games, and my GPU usage is around 80%.

• Windows is up to date.

• BIOS is up to date.

• CPU drivers are installed and updated.

• GPU drivers are updated.

This is typically caused by the GPU drivers and/or other software, so not an Intel CPU issue. Try searching YouTube for topics such as 'How to Fix High CPU Usage AMD Radeon" - that will probably supply an answer.
