Hi all! I noticed unusual spikes (thus throttling) in CPU temperature during gaming, which is not typical of my experience. Despite my laptop having effective cooling, I am accustomed to a more consistent temperature graph. Is it possible that the thermal paste needs replacement, given that my laptop is around a year old and the fans are free of dust? Please refer to the two graphs and the laptop's PDF specifications below; I own the 3060 version. Lenovo_Legion_5_Pro_16ITH6H_Spec.pdf

I've posted this on reddit a couple times, but I don't get any help over it on there, I really need some help with this. Recently I've started to see a problem with my games and that is the frame times spiking exactly every second. It wasn't a problem before, it just started happening out of nowhere. I've noticed that every time it happens my wattage also jumps up and down, going from 50 to 100+ then back down or 70 - 100+ then back down. I've stress tested my GPU on furmark, and everything seems fine, no artifacts, still even during the furmark test, this was happening. I get 60fps in most games I play, but have this frame time problem at the same time When I lock to 30 it works fine. Recently lighting struck near my house and two of my WiFi routers got fried, ever since then, when I boot up a really intensive game, my pc just crashes, no display, nothing, just the GPU fans going crazy. What's giving out? Is it my PSU? My GPU? Or my motherboard? My specs: MSI twin frozr Rx 480 4gb Intel core i5 6400 Biostar Z270GTN 12 GB ADATA Ram (4+8) Thunder TGS - 550G (I've heard it's some local shady power supply with false advertising, I was on a budget at the time, so the computer store guy hooked me up with this)

So I have just recently been noticing this issue, I am not sure if it persisted before hand or not. Anytime I load a game my CPU Utilization will jump to around 50-60% and my temps will spike all the way to 70c or sometimes ever 75c causing my pump and fans to ramp up. Once I get loaded into the game and am playing I have no issues. My temps will run around 35c-45c and my Utilization will be around 20-30%. I am wondering if this is something normal or if I should be concerned about my CPU. CPU - i9-9900KF Cooler - Fractal Design S36 (I was having this issue prior to the cooler swap and it persisted after) I just recently upgraded to the S36 because I thought maybe having a bigger radiator and one more fan could alleviate the high temps, So I know that thermal paste application is good and was good prior to the swapping of the cooler. Thanks for any help you have to offer. Sorry if I am missing any info I am a beginner when it comes to troubleshooting.

I have the fan curve set to silent and cpu set to eco mode on ryzen master but I am still getting spikes that also speed up my fans when I am not doing anything demanding like opening youtube or switching tabs. I have a 5800x, and a gigabyte b550 aorus pro rev.1.0 with the latest bios installed and my cooler is a Scythe Fuma 2.. In HWinfo It shows that i am getting voltage spikes up to 1.475. Are these spikes normal and is there a way to stop my fans from maxing out every spike?

Hello!! I have a PC that was built in a different case and I decided to upgrade into a new case and water supply and now I'm getting weird temperature spikes on Core 5. On top of that the whole PC seems to running hotter. (All temps given will be in Celsius) (Ambient temperature is 72 degrees Fahrenheit) The computer idles around 30 degrees all cores except every 3 seconds Core 5 jumps to about 47 degrees. Then drops back down. Under Cinebenech load I got the computer as high as 80 degrees with Core 5 reaching 82 degrees. The old build was a generic case and Corsair H100i (240mm Radiation) that under the same load would sit at 25 degrees idle and 65 under the fullest load with a 4.7 GHz overclock. Any and all ideas would be appreciated!! Thank you! Case. Lian Li 011 Dynamic Cooler. Lian Li Galahad 360 Thermal Paste Thermal Grizzly Kryonaut (exhausted top) Fans.

I changed my thermal paste on my laptop (HP Pavilion 15-ec0300nd) Under load: The graph is the same for CPU(Its integrated GPU), same temps, like its mirrored. My question is, why does it move so much, is that normal? I put a bit more paste just to be sure, but idk if that can affect it so much? CPU Ryzen 5 3550H Its better while idling: The temps after paste change are much better, now i just have those spikes, now its avg. 60C, before was 80C, but before there were no spikes.

Help please, tried all I can to no avail. To begin, I was having issues with random shut downs during gaming (mostly when loading into a map in MW2). To solve this I updated to the latest bios update, seemed to fix the issue. I also updated my GPU drivers, along with updating to windows 11, which included having to turn on TPM 2.0. Since this, I have encountered stuttering (mostly micro stutters), along with the fact I am getting less FPS in general. Plus my CPU seems to spike (according to HWMonitor) to over my turbo clock speed, highest I’ve seen it go is 7.4ghz. Obviously this may be wrong(?) video / screenshot for context attached. The VCORE also states 0.000v. To attempt to fix this I have rolled back the bios one update, re-installed all my drivers to the latest ones, I’ve ran benchmarks, stress tests on CPU-Z, intels cpu diagnostic tool (passed). My temps are all normal (cpu 58°c max while gaming). Any ideas would be appreciated!

Hi I have recently found that I have been getting FPS drops for a few months randomly. I’ll be playing getting smooth FPS then dropping to like 20-30 frames for a few seconds, then smooth again. I have tried every solution YouTube has to offer with malware cleansers and turning off Xbox dvr in the reg edit and all sorts. I thought it may have been an internet issue at first but I have the best ping and download speed of all my mates and pc is pretty much brand new so I don’t think it could be software. I have a new Ethernet cable also I seen it could be that issue. im starting to tear my hair coming to the bottom of this problem. Any help would be great

I just need a little insight on what is normal for an i7-6700k skylake "stock" processor to be running at voltage and core clock wise. whenever I'm trying to play games or open / fiddle with programs the processor will drop to 0.71 voltage and around 800MHz and will cause insane performance/FPS drop. Usually whenever the CPU spikes it'll occur on all 4 cores and stick around 70-100% load. temps and all that stay at 14-15c on all cores. I'm honestly just stumped and dont know what to do at this point. even if I restart the computer the issue will still persist. I've completely wiped the computer clean, re-installed windows, reset bios and reinstalled drivers yet I'm still getting this odd problem.

Hello everyone, as the title suggests recently I've started experiencing unusually high CPU usages. By that I don't mean smth like 80% or even anything above 30% but there is still something stressing my CPU that wasn't doing it before. To begin with, I am using the Asus N752VX and it all started today when I launched my forza motorsport 6 (the win10 free game) for some lovely play time, however, I was experiencing FPS among the values of 10-15 which is extremely unusual because usually if not at all times it's buttery smooth. I got curious and started checking my processes to see if I can find something there and I found a process called System Interruptions which if I recall correctly I have never seen before. It's not giving me values higher than 0.50% however I read a bit about it and mostly people suggested that you should install DPS Latency Checker and start turning off drivers one by one from the Device Manager to see which is causing it. Well .. I did so but not a single one showed any improvement, I kept being among the 1000-2000 lines (varying among that range sometimes spiking above never going below 1000). I even saw a suggestion saying you should try updating your BIOS and I checked the official Asus website and there was indeed a new BIOS update so I installed it but again .. no improvement. Since then I started up Forza again to see how it will perform and it was kind of better but still not like before. Ran a full scan with Windows Defender but no threats were found. It is worth mentioning also btw that I tried pirating (don't hate me .. poor student here) Forza Horizon 3 a few days ago from some piratebay proxy but I failed making it work so I uninstalled and removed completely but during that time and a bit afterwards my Defender was going crazy about some file which I deleted afterwards as well plus I didn't spot any performance issues after removing it but rather a day or smth after that. So .. can anyone suggest anything ?

I've heard the power draw from a pc may spike up beyond normal when under load/ instance of stress on the system. Also, heard psu calculators are unreliable partly due to this and aftermarket designs oc variation and such. (CM.PSU.calc and nvidia says >400W is fine) My system in progress; i5-6500 gtx 1060 (coming soon) 550w evga supernova hyper 212 x3 140mm fans x1 hdd x1 hdd + x1 ssd (future) considering spikes, is 550W enough? ive heard anywhere from 430-700W recommendations ->how large are these spikes have you seen in general? with the 1060 in particular? first hand experience would be greatly appreciated.

So a while back I bought an i7-6700k. I just installed it im my system about 2 weeks ago, and I'm getting random temperature spikes from idle (about 33c) to 45 or 50c on just one or two cores. The spikes caused my fans to speed up since I have them on a CPU temp based fan curve. I ran a stress test (IBT) and temps got into the 80s... Is this a case cooling issue? Here's my current build. http://pcpartpicker.com/list/rcnyFd

Hey everyone! I know this seems like a thread that happens over and over and over, but I think my case might be a little bit different... I purchased an Intel 6700k a while back, disregarding the issues with temperatures spikes people were having, and I think I may have come across a fairly awful unit compared to others. I can't even run most CPU benchmarks without worrying about whether or not my CPU will fry. I've tried everything from air cooled, AIO, and custom loop cooling. Even with my EK custom loop with FOUR total fans on a 240 mm radiator, I'm getting temperatures spikes up to 95 C.. on startup. My average temperatures both under load and idle don't really worry me. They typically sit around 36 C idle, and under "some" load (Battlefield 1, music, and one Chrome tab open), I'll get an average of about 65 C. What worries me is the constant spikes up to 85-95 C. I've checked the thermal application 4 times, I changed out my ENTIRE custom loop, and really ran through the whole shebang on this one. Everything leads right back to the CPU itself. Any other thoughts that might save me a call to Intel customer service? P.S. The following was a look at the Heaven Benchmark, and doesn't show the crazy start-up 95 C spike.

Hello there, everyone! So recently for about a month or so, I've been having this crazy issue that I've never had before, it's about my internet lagging when I'm in an online game or on a voice chat service like Discord, So what happens is that, when I'm playing a game or talking to someone on Discord or doing both, out of every 1-2 minutes, I get lag spikes of about 4-5 seconds and it's getting more and more frustrating especially when gaming, if it was just voice chat, I'd put up with that but it's not. I then switch to my 4G to game. The thing is.. my internet remains connected and is fine, it's just that there's about a few seconds lag every minute, randomly. I looked at the issue online and some people have it when they're using WiFi so they fix it by connecting with an Ethernet wire. However, I never use WiFi, the internet is connected by an ethernet cable to my PC. More information about my internet : It's a fibernet (FTTH) connection. My ping is manageable, I play at around 90-120ms on Singapore servers. My connection's speed is Up to 50 Mbps. Yet, it's so damn frustrating lately to even start any online game. No matter the game, it lags at random times for a couple of seconds or so, making everything unplayable. I can't just figure out what's wrong with my connection exactly. (Here's what I've done so far : Re Installed Windows (10) Stopped OneDrive in the background Stopped p2p Windows Update thing, whatever that is according to the reddit thread here : ) Yet, none of that worked in my favor, I'm pretty sure it's my internet's fault but I can't figure out what is it and what should I tell my ISP, because when I told them about the lag, they're saying "If your router has the internet light on then it should work" I read in one post somewhere that it's something about frequency but Idk how I figure that out and how I explain it to the guys working at the ISP office in easy way. Anyone who could try to post any possible solution to this is a life saver! Or at least help me figure out what the hell is going on here exactly. Thanks.

Hi, I was messing around with Afterburner, trying to do some mild OC and noticed this: Power limit: 120 Temp limit: 92 (priority) Core Clock: +78 Mem clock: +25 Temps. around 46 when Overwatch is open on the training room. I used it for about an hour and didn't noticed anythig abnormal. The spike on the left I think that happened when I minimized OW, but when the other occurred, I was using Opera with one or two tabs open (google and reddit) and Whatsapp Opera. Does that mean that is time to change my PSU? Extreme Power Plus 650W. It has maybe 4 years.

Mobo k30ad_m31ad_m51ad_m32ad Wifi adapter AC600 Wlanusb So I don't have this MS fluctuation issue with any other computer, but the issue is at every house I've been to, all with different routers, all with different internet providers. Any idea what it is? It fixes when I plug in through ethernet but unfortunately I don't have that pleasure in the house I'm at now. Maybe it's a driver I'm missing or something by chance? The MS spikes in anything, games, pinging sites, etc. Plugging it into the front panel USB it's at roughly 40 and spikes to 100-ish in games, but plugging it into the mobo it's at 400-600 spiking to 800, any help would be appreciated in fixing this.

Hello, So I build a new PC less than a month ago and ever since I first booted I've been getting weird CPU spikes. Every once and a while, (seemingly randomly), my screen will freeze up and the audio will glitch. After checking task manager and later procexp I found that my CPU is spiking to 100% with the highest usage being System Interrupts. All my driver are up to date and the BIOS is all at default. If anyone knows what could be causing this or what else I can check it would be much appreciated.

MOBO Gigabyte B450 Aorus Elite GPU Zotac Geforce RTX 2070 AMP EXTREME EDITION 8GB CPU AMD Ryzen 5 2600 RAM Team Group Vulcan T-Force 16GB 3000MHz PSU Kolink 600W 80 Plus Bronze SSD Samsung 250GB 860 EVO HDD Seagate BarraCuda 2TB MONITOR AOC E2460SH (1080p@60hz)Yes. my PC is overkill to the max for this monitor but i will be upgrading to a 1440p 144hz Monitor (See below).(Things I've done - windows performance mode on, all gaming bloatware on windows disabled, clear standby memory every 5 minutes, NVIDIA Performance power management mode, no overclocks)So basically i configured and bought a brand new £1k custom-built gaming PC which is AMAZING (compared to my 10 year old PC).However, it has given me problems when gaming only... everything else seems to be smooth and work perfectly fine. Basically games stutter on my PC at high fps which includes but is not limited to: Shadow of the Tomb Raider (both DX11/DX12), Battlefield 1 (both DX11/DX12), Metro Exodus (both DX11/DX12), CSGO, Dying light and Call of duty Modern Warfare. Somehow GTA V and Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 do not stutter at all, it is "buttery" smooth. Now I know that the cause of my frametime spikes are fps drops (when frames drop e.g. -20/30/50fps frametime spike occurs). One common solution is to cap the fps using an in-game frame rate limiter or RTSS. However, doing so does not help... fps drops still occur even at low caps (e.g. 90fps). VSYNC seems to remove all stutters however as my monitor has a refresh rate of 60hz this really isn't a solution with the massive 16.67ms input lag... now this leads to my question. Will upgrading to a Gsync (1440p) 144Hz monitor solve my frametime spike issues (caused by fps drops) or just make them more clear to the eye. Since using vsync at 60hz solved my issues... surely vsync at 144Hz will too, given i can keep that framerate up or enable gsync? Either way I'm looking to upgrade to the Dell S2716DG (1440p 144Hz) soon unless another monitor pops up for a great price.Edit 1I used afterburner to monitor my hardware while playing one game of CSGO Deathmatch with an uncapped framerate. I tested CSGO because it should be the LEAST likely game to cause issues on my PC.It shows that the max CPU usage is on CPU1 92% and max GPU usage 54%Sure I can cap my framerate (at 120/180fps to lower cpu usage), however, like i stated above that stutters still occur (maybe to a lesser extent not too sure). Also it should be noted that CSGO (>fps) stutters the most and shadow of the tombraider/dyinglight (CSGO < fps) etc the least. What i dont understand is how GTA V does not stutter at all... its one of the most demanding games i've played, far more demanding than CSGO!https://imgur.com/cozZDsJhttps://imgur.com/PtnDJZVhttps://imgur.com/HUfw2mAI'd really appreciate if anyone can help me on this issue or has had similar experience in the past
