I dont know if I should be putting this as a problem with the motherboiard or the cpu, but Im going to start here.
I recently purchased a Maximus V Formula motherboard, along with an i7-3770k. I was running an old Q6700 prior to this, on a nvidia ultra sli mobo. My video card is a 680gtx, along with 8gb of DDR3.
So, after getting all the hardware replaces in my case, I boot up my pc and I get incredible lag, to the point where my windows would only boot up once out of 5 tries, and when it did, it would be ridiculously slow with mouse lag, and my cpu usage would be around 50% minimum on idle. Naturally I figured maybe its all my drivers being confused with my previous mobo, so I re installed a clean version of windows. Now that its installed, I am still having the same problem, but less extreme... My computer seems to run fine with cpu usage being from1%-5% on idle, and when I run a program like heaven benchmark, I get about 1-5fps and my cpu usage jumps back up to ridiculous numbers. Once I close Heaven Benchmark, the cpu usage stays between 25-50% on idle.
I'm finding this whole situation really frustrating and im hoping someone can help me. Ive built many computers and have never run into this problem.
