Hello, I'm experiencing an unusual problem with my HP Elitebook 840 G7. On certain tasks using the LG 27GP850 external monitor, the GPU usage spikes significantly compared to what I see in Desktop Window Manager. This happens mainly when playing videos on YouTube in windowed mode, but not in fullscreen or when moving windows quickly. It doesn't occur with my other 1080p monitor at 60Hz. I've tried updating the GPU drivers from both HP and Intel sites, lowering the refresh rate to 60 or 120Hz, and even switched to a different browser (Edge). Many online solutions point to an NVIDIA driver bug, though my laptop uses Intel graphics (i7-10810U).
