Mr. Wick · August 27, 2020

Built my new setup 1 week ago(r5 3600,rx580,2×8gb ram)..i was playing SOTTR..suddenly one steam message from steam came and my gpu usage dropped down from 90 -100% to 10-35%.. Exactly same thing happend two days in a row..after i restart my pc and started playing the game , the gpu usage went back to normal...can somone tell what caused the problem?

Could be a stutter where nothing is pre-populated into RAM yet. Run the overlay it again and its fine..

New instructions (SteamUI), not in RAM yet on first load, can cause little blips (esp if Fresh Boot, HDD game files, First few seconds of the level as an example)

The framework GUI of Horizon Zero Dawn when it updates on screen causes a stutter on occasion, I doubt it's your PC hardware, beyond maybe loading from a HDD or Fresh Data not being in RAM yet, which is a software optimization issue IMO.
