Ay guys.I’m having a long time problem with my games using too much CPU.So i start up a game(CS:GO,any game)and the game uses maybe like 30-60 CPU-game works fine.Then at a random moment my game start lagging.At that point game is using like 85-100 CPU.Then after some time CPU goes to normal 30-60 as mentoined before.
I play every game on lowest settings because my graphic card is very bad.
-GRAPHIC CARD-ATI Radeon HD 4300-4500 Series
-Processor-AMD Athlon 64 X2 5000+
AdwCleaner:
https://toolslib.net/downloads/view…
(blue “Download Now” button on right).
Download and “Save” the file somewhere. Go to the saved file then double click it to run the program. Use the “Scan” button, followed by the “Clean” button.
MalwareBytes:
https://www.malwarebytes.org/
(use the “download” button rather than the “buy” button).
Install and Run the program but before running the Scan go to “Settings > Detection and Protection” and put a checkmark in “Scan for rootkits”. Quarantine anything it finds.
Copy/Paste their logs on here, together with the one from Junkware Removal Tool which you also should have run (previous post). If you have malware in there you will have problems forever, which could get worse.
Always pop back and let us know the outcome – thanks

If CPU usage is low at idle and high while gaming, that is normal. Your CPU idle should be 80% or higher for a manufactured system, 90% or higher if custom or a clean install of Windows.
If not low at idle then get a handle on your programs that start with Windows, that will make the most difference after you are free of malware.
If a desktop, upgrade to a gaming graphics card. What power supply may limit what graphics card you can get so post the exact make and model number.
If your system is 64bit then add more memory, bring it up to at least 4GB or better, 8GB.
I still do not see if this is a desktop or a laptop. If it is a desktop machine then you need a gaming level graphics card. There is nothing wrong with the game using higher CPU, that is how it is able to get you more fps BUT the CPU is taking up some of the slack that the current GPU (graphics) is not able to keep up with. Adding/upgrading your graphics will make the MOST significant difference (improvement) in your gaming and as a side bar will take some of the load off of your CPU as well. You will also get a fair payback by adding more memory, If your system is 32bit then go up to 4GB RAM (a little over 3GB usable) and if it is a 64bit system then get it up to 8GB for better performance.
