Hello, I've been facing slow performance across all windows when video content plays during gaming sessions. Problems tend to appear mainly with YouTube, though other platforms show similar issues. The games that struggle the most are War Thunder and Escape from Tarkov. I'm unsure if adjusting settings related to Windows, browser, or game settings will resolve the issue, but all the information provided is useful.

Specs: 3060, 12GB RAM, R5 5600x, 32GB SSD (3600 MB), B550 processor, running games at 1440p on a main monitor with two 1080p displays at 144Hz. I take screenshots during gameplay in War Thunder.

Review recent updates, verify RAM placement in the second and fourth slots for a four-slot motherboard, install the newest drivers with a fresh setup, attempt to re-seat the CPU, and use only essential USB connections.

Disable hardware acceleration in your browser to check if it resolves the problem. 3060 works at 1440p but only marginally.

It seems the image doesn't provide enough details, likely due to CPU limits. Without core usage data, we can only assume. Use hwinfo64 for accurate monitoring and share the results if needed.
