    Very high power usage


    I've just installed a new motherboard with my new 2070s and 3800x, but when i play a game or sometimes just being in chrome makes power usage very high in task manager. Is this something i should look into? i have an 650W PSU.

    HIGH POWER USAGE WITH MICROSOFT EDGE

    Hi André, I'm Bill.

    You could try resetting Edge to it's original unused state, which might disable whatever process is using so much power. Here are the steps you can follow:

    - Click Start and type "apps & features".

    - Select Apps & Features.

    - Find the app in the list and select it.

    - Click Advanced Options

    - Click Reset.

    Keep in mind you'll lose customisation within Edge, so you might need to set it up how you like it again once you've done this. Hopefully this stops the high power usage, but if not, let me know! Thanks!

    Very High Power Usage

    Under Task Manager, under column Power Usage, I often get "Very High" usage, which seem to cause a lag in my system. It does not matter what program I am using, it seems as though any program can cause the poser usage to go to very high, even the task
    manager. My power supply is a 1200 watt but should not be causing a problem, but I am unsure. My question is, what would cause this? Is my system possibly over heating? Temperature seem to be ok.
