Stuttering, hanging, high cpu usage

Ssiss · August 31, 2019

I seem to be always having a problem with my PC, no matter what.

I originally had a small form factor itx build with 9700k, z390i asus motherboard, 16gb ram, corsair nvme, sf600, rtx 2080ti asus... i didn't feel it was running quite right, my fps wasn't where it should have been. I then switched this PC, using the same 9700k but got a ATX, asus xi hero z390, seasonic 850w platininm additional 16gb ram and a msi gaming x trio rtx 2080ti. Upon initial use.. all is fine, great.. high fps no stuttering or anything.

All of a sudden a few days ago.. i start getting high cpu usage for no reason and on the desktop the mouse cursor stutters and there is freezing. I check all the drivers, all is installed. I check for viruses, nothing. I reset my pc... same issue. I do a fresh install using a USB, same issue. I then use my old rtx 2080 from my previous previous build.. even worse issue.

I get system interrupts on my task processes which can be hardware/driver related. I get some odd processes coming up which i don't know what they are. The CPU temperature seems to be hover between 30 and 50 (it will jump suddenly sometimes). I reseated the CPU and applied thermal paste again. I checked the cpu fan cable..

I have the latest BIOS, latest intel drivers, latest nvidia drivers, checked the drivers using asus utiltity.

I literally don't know what this is. Im running a memtest86 now to check if its the memory. :(((( I HATE PCS!

can you share some more details about which processes actually use up your cpu?

Please see images. The processes change constantly. They go up and down in usage for no reason. This is literally a fresh build of windows with nothing on it except drivers.
