  2. Audiodg.exe Spikes Cpu Usage

    Every 5 minutes or so audiodg.exe spikes my cpu usage to about 50% and any audio im playing cuts out and then comes back a second or 2 later. The video is completely fine and it's not a problem with
    my USB Headset. audiodg.exe stays at low cpu usage when it's not spiking.

    Solutions I've tried:

    1. turning off audio enhancements
    2. reinstalling lan, and audio drivers
    3. turning off HPET
    4. lowering the sound quality in control panel
    5. DPC Latency checker (no change when spiking)
    None of these solutions work. Please help.

  3. Explorer constantly spiking CPU usage for Win 10

    Hi. Thank you for your answer. I tried all your suggestions, but nothing helped.

    Clean bot seems helped at first but no after some hours spikes came back and now spiking more often with every hour of PC working.

    Same happened also without clean boot.

    Any other suggestions what to try ?

    Just to let you know that I worked with Win 7 before with even more programs installed than now and I did not switched off my PC for weeks and CPU usage was lower in general not to talk about any spikes in CPU, newer noticed anything like that...

    Thanks

  4. cpu spike

    Cpu usage spikes

    Hello ! My PC specs are the following:

    - AMD Ryzen 1600x CPU

    - Nvidia Gtx 1060 6gb GPU

    - 8 GB DDR4 RAM ( 2400 MHz)

    - Asus B350 Prime Plus Motherboard

    Sometimes I get those weird spikes ( they come and go ) lasting for 1-2 seconds of 100% CPU utilization. In idle state the CPU utilization stays between 5-10% ( up to 20% if im browsing the internet and having programs like Steam, Discord etc running in
    background), but when the spike comes I can see how the pc freezes for 1 second ( typical lag freeze) and how the cpu utilization rizes to 100% CPU then jumps back down to under 20%. I have waited with taskmanager such a spike and discovered that when it happens,
    System NT Kernel & System is the one process that its sudently eating up all the CPU resources.

    I tried updating all the drivers and im still having the problem. Here is a Windows Performance Record

    link
    where I left the pc running for 45 minutes and I saw atleast 1 spike happening in those 45 minutes ( I kept going away from the computer and coming back).
