Hey everyone! I just recently updated my drivers and Windows 11, and now I'm experiencing a weird issue. My CPU usage has skyrocketed to 100% while playing games like Marvel Rivals, whereas everything was smooth before. I have 38GB of RAM, an SSD, a 5070 GPU, and a 7800X3D processor, but for some reason, my GPU usage is showing 0%. It seems like my CPU is doing all the heavy lifting, and I'm not sure what's causing this issue. Any thoughts?

First things first, try checking your Task Manager to see what's hogging your CPU resources. It might give you some clues as to what's going wrong. Sometimes, unexpected processes can start running after updates, causing this high usage.
It sounds like the problem is specific to Marvel Rivals, not your system in general. Have you tried verifying the game installation? That could fix any corrupted files. And make sure to restart your PC after updates, just to give it a good refresh.
Yeah, I've restarted twice and verified the game files, but nothing changed. Do you think I should roll back the driver updates?
