    CPU and GPU usage high, fps drop on games

    Hi. I usually have around 100fps at Player Unknown Battlegrounds and my CPU usage is normal. From a month or so I get fps drops like 50-100fps and game feels laggy.

    Also, when I open the task manager the CPU and GPU usage is really high around 90, 80% and then suddently drops to normal values like 5%.

    I checked igfxupdate.exe Windows process - What is it? but it doesn't resolve it.

    I noticed that a service svhost is very high on usage, what can I do?

    Thanks in advance.

    Sudden drop in cpu usage while gaming

    Update : It has gotten worse now I'm getting FPS drops and drop in cpu usage every 2 minutes

    It's like the fps is stable at 60 fps for 2 minutes then suddenly drops to 5 fps the I open task manager to see what happened then the CPU usage of NFS Heat drops from 50% to 20% then climbs back to 50-70%

    Sudden drop in cpu usage while gaming

    So I'm trying to play NFS Heat, the game runs fine on about 60 fps for 10 minutes or so but then the fps suddenly drops to like 5-10 for a few seconds and then runs again normally. This happens every 5-10 minute while I'm trying to play. One thing I have noticed in task manager is that the game uses around 70% of CPU and then the game's fps drops and the CPU usage drops to 10% then it rises again to 70-80% then again suddenly drops to 10% and the game's fps also drops. I don't what's the reason for this.

    My Specs :-

    16 GB DDR4 ram 3200 Mhz

    AMD Ryzen 5 5500u

    Nvidia GTX 1650 GDDR 5 4 GB

    Thank you for taking your time and reading this. (Don't mind my english, not my native)
