Hello guys, 

My PC:

I5 6500 

gtx 1070

8 gb RAM

240 gb ssd

When I play Rainbow 6 Siege, GTA 5 or I download something from Steam Uplay my CPU usage is at 100%. 

The average temperature is around 50 °C and never goes above 70.

Like 3 months ago i observed that Gta 5 is struggling loading in the textures, after my pc freezed when i was downloading something, and last month in R6S every time I move the mouse the game froze for like a second, at EVERY mouse movement. I have R6S for 2 years and I never had this issue, I even tried to play it to play whit the lowest settings possible nut I got the same results.

Check task manager and sort by cpu useage. I have a feeling something got on your system and is draining it's resources.

How?

 

Your cpu isn't fast enough to keep up with your gpu

 

The freezing and stuff is another problem though. Tried reinstalling drivers?

4 core i5s are known to be bottlenecks in systems with 1070s and better GPUs because they cant keep the GPUs fed and spike up in usage trying.

Maybe this is a windows problem, I'm not sure, after making an update it got resolved, but after another update it got screwed up again.

Can I do anything about, beside buying a new cpu
