30-40% CPU USAGE WHEN USING CHROME

Yo. Just wondering is it normal that my CPU usage is at 30-40% sometimes a little bit more when browsing the web and watching live streams on twitch TV. Almost no programs are opened in the background and I find it really weird that my CPU has that much amount of usage just by browsing the web.

 

PS: The % keeps jumping for example from 10% to 40% and then back to 18 etc...

Thats normal, processing webpages and streaming video does use CPU power afterall.

For example I use a dual socket xeon server and my CPU usage never goes about 3% unless I render... seems pretty wasteful right?

Current Rig (8K render server) -
