Adrenalin and Task Manager showing different gpu utilization

Hey Guys;

As the title suggests - I am seeing different gpu utilization values between Task Manager and Adrenalin and hoping someone has an explanation.

When I am browsing online or just writing this, Task Manager has a fairly constant 0-5% GPU utilization. But when I check Adrenalin it shows spikes every few seconds from 0-100% GPU utilization and seems to be a constant issue.

I have disabled everything I can think of that may drain GPU resources, scanned for virus, checked for updates, ran troubleshooter and searched online for a solution, all without success.

Has anyone else experienced something similar or have an explanation for this discrepency?

Many Thanks!

Nope, mine sits between 0-1%. Maybe you have an unknown processor model or Nv software is hogging resources?

Hey goodplayMVP,

I don't believe that is the issue as I have an RX580 GPU which is fairly well known.

But what do you mean by Nv software?

I have checked everthing that uses resources in Task Manager, disabled anything unnecessary and it shows normal GPU utilization, between 1 - 5%.  It's only in the AMD Adrenaline software that I am seeing the utilization spikes.
