Window Manager 100% GPU

[mariobros]

Hello,

 

My task manager shows the Desktop Window Manager using 100% GPU periodically. I tried to fix by DDU and update drivers, windows update, check corrupted windows files and Avira full system scan.

 

What I find strange is that the MSI afterburner does not show this usage, it shows the GPU as 1% / 2%

 

Is this something that I should worry about? If so how can I fix it?

ddu it, if you want you can install the same version driver but if it happens again go down a version of driver

Common thing with the last couple of Nvidia drivers and new Windows versions, mine also does the same. It just means GPU is using Windows, even at %100 the card is actually not properly taxed. Check GPU-Z and you'll find out that it's in fact pulling idle power. When you launch a game, it goes down back to normal. Nothing to be worried about.
