Hello,
 
I dont understand why this program use so much cpu. Please look at my screenshots. Cpu usage go from 6.8 to 11.9% all time when program is open. Old EVGA Precision XOC (6.2.7) was running normal with GTX series 1-2% cpu usage.
 
Same for every PX1 version.
 
1. When i boot pc and dont touch PX1
2. When i open px1
3. When i minimize px1
 
 1.2. 3.

    I just checked my CPU (i7 6850k) usage and I'm seeing something similar to what you're seeing but PX1 is using around 4% of the CPU for me. I swear in previous versions of PX1 (I'm using version 0.3.7.0) that the CPU usage was lower (1-2%).
     
    Even at 4% it seems really high for something like this.

    Same problem,  sometimes its only 1% (i7 8086K) and sometimes it goes up to 6%. Usually stays around 2.5-3% usage which is just weird.

    Im on i9 7980xe 6-11% usage. Yep everything above 4% usage is not normal.

    Re: High CPU usage Precision X1 2018/11/29 09:06:01 (permalink)
    So I just realized that PX1 is using 4% of my CPU when the CPU is idle, which means that there is no boost being applied. I just fired up ACOD, which uses the CPU heavily, and after the CPU boosted the CPU utilization of PX1 went from around 4% down to 0.5%.
     
    So I'm cool with 0.5% CPU usage for PX1 when after the CPU boosts as that's when CPU utilization matters.

    See if disabling the osd helps.

    Just chiming in to say I don't think this is widespread.   I'd suspect a conflict or corrupted installation, or perhaps an older version. 
    First thing I'd do is click the cog in precision and under general settings click "Check Now" to see if there are any updates to Precision.  Also make sure it's minimized but even then it shouldn't be using that kind of cpu.  *edit* Should also note that I have the precision OSD disabled.  Task manager generally reports 0.1-0.3% cpu usage from precision. For reference that's on an 8700k, 6c/12t
     
    If Precision is up to date I'd start looking elsewhere, system drivers and other background software.  Perhaps even disabling windows defender (not that I can see how it would effect precision, but just as a basic troubleshooting step.)

    osd is disabled by default in PX1 for me there is no pink light in right corner near HWM and LED Sync (also HWM and LED Sync disabled)

    @kacan22
    Not knowing that Card this is A GTX or A RTX but sounds like the older version was not uninstalled and cleaned up from the Computer or the Registry.
    Turn off the OSD and HWM Apply - Save - Exit PX1 and then start it back you should see the same as the second image.
     
    Two RTX Cards.
     
     
    What Version of PX1 is this?
    What OS is this and What Version is this OS?
    How many Graphics Cards are installed?
    Makes and Model Numbers?

    Still have all them Container Running, having 2 Cards you should only have 2 running not 4 + a 32Bit one.

    Re: High CPU usage Precision X1 2018/12/09 17:08:18 (permalink)
    Does X1 still show high CPU utilization if you are running a game? My CPU down clocks itself if there isn't much going on and when it does that X1 is using around 4% of the CPU. If I start a game the CPU does its full overclock and then X1 uses about 0.5% of the CPU.
     
    This behavior makes sense as if the CPU is down clocked during times of low usage then X1 will use more of that down clocked CPU. And if the CPU is running at it's full overclock then it makes sense that X1 uses less CPU as there is "more" CPU available.

    When i play game PX1 use around 4% cpu but when i exit game 8-9%. I tried almost everything to fix this but nop. Only program with this problem.

    Done that today when installing new nvidia driver without GE. Still same cpu usage maybe SLI is affected i really dont know what to say. I also tried disabling all services except microsoft services no help :(

    I had high CPU usage when I first installed PX1 but now it has settled. I can't say what is was, I can now turn on the OSD, HWM and LED sync all together and still the CPU usage is 1.8-4%. 
     
    Edit: Is PX1 open on the desktop when your checking CPU usage in Task Manager? Usage seems to spike when it's opened to the desktop. Try minimizing it to the app tray and checking usage then...

    According to what I read, basically all the people who have this problem, have a 2080th FTW3, this is suspicious...

    Thanks very much Jacob. I'll keep a close eye on the CPU usage when using X1. I'll install it later this week (upgrading from XOC 6.2.7)  to work with my new RTX GPUs.

    Intel Core i9 7980XE @ 2.6 GHz | 64GB Corsair Dominator Platinum PC4-21300 | Asus Rampage VI Apex | 2x Nvidia Titan RTX “T-Rex” (NVLink Enabled) | Corsair AX1600i PSU | Creative Sound BlasterX AE-5 Pure Edition | Dell U2711 LCD | Windows 10 Pro for Workstations 64 Bit (Version 1903)

    Would it be possible for all who experience this issue, to post a screenshot of both PX1 and Task manager showing the usage? Additionally, since those pictures will get quite large, if you can post them to imgur, and then post the link to the imgur album, that would be great. :)
     
    If you could also give some information such as:
    - Windows Power Performance Plan
    - System specs (Programs such as speccy, or HWInfo are great for this)
    - Additional information that you think may be relevant.
     
    Thank you!
     
    -Jacob B.

    Imgur for px1 and task manager: https://imgur.com/a/3EAisdz
    Power preformance plan: High preformance
    System specs: i9 7980xe, 2x2080ti FTW3, 64gb ram, 1600axi, MSI MEG x299
    Additional information: tried turning off my processor oc profile (didnt help), installing nvidia without geforce experience, turning off sli and also removing one card from system. Nothing seems to help to fix this. My cpu usage is around 7% when im playing games and doing other stuff (rendering etc...) but when im on desktop using chrome PX1 usage goes above 10%.

    Post one of the Detail Tab (Sort by CPU) and Exit ALL other Apps like Chrome & Corsair Link.
