High cpu usage

[AbilityAngle]

Specs :

Gtx 960

asus z97k

i5 4690k 

16 gb ddr3 kingston 

windows 10

 

Recently for some reason i noticed that my cpu is basically at 100% when ever i have any game running, i ran malwarebytes and ccleaner to make sure there was no virus or anything. Its not over heating or anything and i'm not noticing any fps drop or anything just worried that i could be damaging my cpu. (Screen shot of cpu usage when i launch csgo and then when i close it )

Any advice on to lower my cpu usage?

Seems to be normal with a CPU intensive game.

If your temps are safe, it will not damage your CPU

But this has never happened before until recently

Won't damage your CPU and if you are playing a game like BF4 that isn't CPU intensive your usage should not be at 100% at any point. However if you are playing a game like City Skylines or ARMA III, then expect usage to be that high.

Use task manager to see what is causing this. Filter from most to least by clicking the "CPU" section so that the arrow points down. (Windows 8, 8.1, 10)

What games are you running?

Perform clean boot (disable all services besides windows services) and see how you go

Also reset BIOS defaults

Remove all you anticirus/malwarebytes and program like that, reboot and see if the same thing is happening.

What process is using all this CPU % ?
