Dear Community,

With every application what i'm running or any game my cpu usage goes to 70%+ for no reasons.. Maybe some of you know why?

Specs:

 

GTX 970

 

z170 gaming pro

 

DDR4 2666 (2x)

 

WATT = 550

 

i5 6600k

With kind regards,

 

Mohammed

Which version of Windows do you have?

Would you attach a picture of the task manager?

Hey Allan,

Im using at the moment Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit.

 

I made a screen when I just had a game open without playing it yet else it went to 80/90, look printscreen below.

Thanks for the picture.

I see Special Force 2 and other processes combined running at 71%. I do not see a problem on this computer.

I would start by updating to the latest video drivers, or windows updates.

Allan.
