High Unexpected Performance Figures During Gameplay on a GTX 1060
High Unexpected Performance Figures During Gameplay on a GTX 1060
Hi everyone,
I’m experiencing a strange issue with my computer and require some assistance. I've recently noticed that when playing PUBG while the game is minimized, my graphics card, processor, and system power consumption appear to be at or near their maximum levels. However, upon maximizing the game back to its normal state, these usages immediately drop, and specifically the GPU decreases from 99% to 60%, the power drops from 75% to 45%, and the CPU sees a slight reduction. The images above (apologies for the quality; I took them with my phone to avoid disrupting the measurements by using alt+tab and the snipping tool) illustrate this situation.
My system specifications are as follows: [link]

It’s likely a problem with the game, not your computer. Examine the Task Manager to identify which processes are consuming that 99% usage – this will reveal the source of the CPU or GPU strain.
