Hi,

 

anyone else have this problem with desktop window manager having high GPU usage its like 30% usage on GPU1-3D, the faster you move the TM window about the higher the usage goes, as you can imagine when it decides it wants to spike up when your in the middle of a game and your fps tanks from 300 to 30 and starts bouncing about all over the place it makes things basically unplayable the only way i have ever got round the problem is multiple restarts/shutdowns tried all sorts of "fixes" from google but as everyone who has this problem nothing seems to work and the problem seems to be 90% on laptops had the problem on my other laptop that had a 2070 in it had that one for 1.5 years had this one for about a 1.5 years aswell didnt know if anyone had been able to fix it.  see specs below for my laptop

Uninstall Wallpaper Engine.

 

In addition, go through your Startup tab in Task Manager and Disable absolutely everything that doesn't need to be running at boot. Observe GPU usage then start opening things you normally have open until you notice the problem.

The same thing has been happening to me recently. I disabled/closed everything I could and it stays at 90-100%.

I updated drivers and did the DISM thingys, ran the troubleshooter, all the regular recommendations and its still killing my gpu
