The Ryzen 5 3600 is experiencing a continuous loop between 0 and 100% CPU usage on two cores.
The Ryzen 5 3600 is experiencing a continuous loop between 0 and 100% CPU usage on two cores.
Hey! I've noticed a problem lately after playing games for some time. Whenever my CPU is busy using more than idle, two of my cores—#1 and #2—keep getting stuck in a constant 0-100% usage cycle. It means the usage stays at that level for a moment, then drops and rises again and again. It feels like an endless loop until I open Task Manager and it seems to break free. I've checked with other programs, but only Task Manager seems to affect this behavior. My CPU isn't running any viruses, and I'm certain my system is healthy after searching multiple paid solutions. The build is about two months old, which is pretty new. I've changed my chipset drivers to the latest version (Aorus Elite B450 F50), but it didn't fully solve the issue. Now it only affects cores #9 and #10, not the original ones. It's frustrating because I can't find a fix. Also, the same thing happened with CPU #1 and #2 after I updated the BIOS. Someone, please help me!
Choosing the latest AMD chipset drivers or the older Gigabyte ones? Deciding whether to use the Ryzen power plan.
Hello! I'm connecting via the newest chipset drivers from the gigabyte site on the Aorus Elite page. The F50 model is set up with the Ryzen High Performance plan, but according to what was mentioned earlier, the Ryzen balanced or Windows Balanced performance plans don't affect this situation.
I tried to remove the detected threats from my computer. It's unclear if they were genuine malware or just flagged as such. Since the problem hasn't shown up yet, I'll continue testing and upgrade my drivers to improve performance. Appreciate your support!
