The other thing I've tried is going to bios and looking at speed settings and they were all on normal, however what's odd is the entire time I'm in bios my CPU temps are 60 degrees or a bit above with fans pushing 1500.Įdit - I should mention I've had no crashes or performance issues. Oddly I can replicate the spike by opening chrome and I get a spike for a couple of seconds m with the fan kicking up, other than this it looks random. Weirdly I find the idle temps of 25-30 degrees jumping to 40 or 50 mostly, and in some circumstances 60 or 65 and Im seeing no high usage from anything above 2. I contacted them and there is no conflict with windows 10, defender or the firewall. I have McAfee antivirus/malware which I thought might be causing the problem. I am not a gamer and I only use this laptop for personal business and surfing the web. Weirdly I find the idle temps of 25-30 degrees jumping to 40 or 50 mostly, and in some circumstances 60 or 65 and I'm seeing no high usage from anything above 2 or 3 percent when this happens. out of nowhere my computer will run really hard and my cpu spikes up to 99 for no reason.
So I decided to do some digging, starting with opening task manager and monitoring CPU usage, also using real temp too. This would happen even if I didn't do anything for a while and was reading a web page. Noticed recently when browsing and not doing anything intensive I'll gear my CPU fan kick up to about 1500rpm for a few seconds then drop down to idle.
