If only task manager shows high usage and other apps don't, maybe there is an issue with the OS.

have you checked for windows updates (and not just waiting until the os detect them and install them)?

 

because this is a new built, I'll try to reinstall the OS, and then install all the chipset and drivers directly from MSI
