WHY: CS:GO keep running i9-9900K under 100% load? HELP

[_zZz_]

short review:

1. I installed CS:GO.

2. after start: my cpu got loaded 100% and Temp 105. It started thermal throttle.

3. when i quit from game temp goes to normal

4. i deleted game but cpu still 100% load after restart.

5. i use restore point created before csgo installation.

Now my system is FINE again.

AND the reason all this manipulations is CS:GO.

 

the only issue: i cannot play CS:GO ANY MORE

Yes, i set Temp 105 in BIOS, ok wil change to 100. But i never had 100% cpu load before csgo got installed.

i don't use MSI Afterburner at all, this is not related to gpu issue. My gpu is fine, only CPU.

i keep just a few programs from MSI. Command center, Update, Led control

 

I'd change the temperature limit simply to the default value. If that's 100 ok, but put it back to what it came with. Also remove the overclock as stuff is burning up.

 

Afterburer with RTSS gives a nice in-game overlay for monitoring resource usage. It does RAM, CPU, GPU, everything. Lighting control is probably fine to keep, but I'd try removing Command Center. Not sure what Update does.

Then you should try and figure out what the difference between your restore point is and the system after installing and uninstalling CS:GO. If the issue persists than apparently the way you install CS:GO seems to trigger something. I'm going to go out on a limb here, but this is a legitimate copy of the game we are talking about right?

Great plan TIKKER,  i will try it defenetly (to much actions just for csgo)

but for now i am ok and my rig too, cos all other games and programs runs with no problem.

i still curios: what is your people cpu usage during CS:GO game play?

but you do have problems, that's why you came to ask here. Please be clearer in your responses, you are incredibly vague in your replies and you don't respond to half the things that are asked. If it's truly CS:GO, then uninstalling it should be enough. Furthermore, you have demonstrated yourself that it doesn't seem to be CS:GO, as in task manager you have shown us its usage was around 15-35%.

 

Furthermore you are reaching 105 C. That should NOT be happening and indicates you have either inadequate cooling  or are pushing your OC too far for your cooling solution. Intel's Ark page for the 9900k lists 100 C as the maximum allowed temperature on the die. You are operating at unhealthily high temperatures, so please be smart and 1) remove your overclock that you mentioned and 2) lower that temperature protection limit to default again.

 

Get MSI Afterburner or something and use the OSD to monitor in-game CPU usage. That should give some additional insight as usage may drop when you switch out of the game to look at task manager.

 

Lastly I agree with @IkeaGnome. Do a good virus scan and get rid of all the MSI Gaming related stuff.

Seems to be related to the MSI Gaming app and apparently uses quite some resources:

I don't play CS:GO, but it's also the last game I would be surprised of to be capable of using 100% of the CPU.

I also don't play CSGO, but I know it'll take every bit of CPU you throw at it. Apparently my 5800x gets around 450 FPS at 1440p low.

So, i didn't play CS long time already and will not play any more, that's for sure

*tried to release stress after loosing job

I've got an idea folks: Try to install cs:go and probably you will be facing the same issue (advice: create restore point before installation, better two of them just in case)

[_zZz_]

CONCLUSION: CS:GO "affected" to my CPU load and ONLY System Restore Tool HELPS me to REVERSE CPU back to NORMAL WORKING stage.

 

I am sure: This is SERIOUS ISSUE of CS optimization, because all other GAMES and PROGRAMS works just fine and DO NOT damage my OS as CS did.

 

 

Thank you guys for help and your opinions.

When I get home in a couple of day, I can download it. I'd bet $500 I don't have the same issue though.

Just remove msi command center and all other bloatware. Then remove the unstable overclock that makes you reach shutdown temperature point.

Yes, I'm sure it's all the fault of one of the most popular games in the world and you're just the first to notice.

Here you go, a sample that pretty clearly shows how little the game taxes my CPU. Hardware is a 5900X and a 3080. And here's a screenshot of Task Manager while the game is running, showing how little my overall system is getting taxed.

You know, it's kinda disheartening to see how you consistently refuse to simply revert your PC to stock speeds and remove the bloatware you have installed. It's usually quite frustrating when people ask for advice and continuously refuse to actually heed said advice and then come to a conclusion that absolves them of any responsibility for the problem. It can't be you or the way you configured your system, no, it must be the game. Mind you, I'm not discrediting the notion that the game could be at fault here. But given that you refuse to actually implement the solutions people are providing doesn't fill me with confidence in your conclusion.

I am here to find answer. Yes, you right Avocado, i agree with you.

Try to play few days and probably you will have the same issue. I had the same load when i just start play on this particular system.

I will try install cs:go again after OS upgrade, end of Oct.

 

 

Tikker: all my software and games are 100% legite.

Lol to everyone saying csgo uses 100 percent of a 5ghz 9900k

 

this game runs on a fucking potato at 200 FPS and is primarily single thread bound, it uses a few other cores but doesn’t use 16 threads to 100 percent lol

Last 2 and a half pages have been people telling OP that they need to cut back on bloatware.

i don't have any bloatware, i do deep check my system twice per month. ESET Internet Security by the way

Hey Avocado, i just spend 1 hour watching your reviews on YouTube. Great quality
