Hi guys having some random gpu spike issues when the computer is idle or when im browsing my gpu tends to spike up to 89 or 90 when im playing games such as minecraft it seems mostly to go from 20-50 any help guys thanks :D. also i dont get any spikes from my cpu and my cpu usage seems relatively low and all of my parts have a rating of 7-8 apart from the hard drive which is at 5.2 and the gpu temp is always about 20-30 and cpu 5-20

Specs:
Motherboard:CROSSHAIR V FORMULA-Z
GPU: Asus amd radeon HD7770 2gb
CPU: Amd fx 6350
Ram: 2 x 4gb 1600mhz
Hard Drive: 1tb

I was having a similar issue and it turned out the spikes were caused by two programs, one running in the background ( Microsoft Desktop
Window Manager) and the other was my web browser (Google Chrome). I went to Microsoft's www.sysinternals.com and downloaded the process explorer. Once you run it go to view /select columns / process GPU and check all the boxes and it will show you what applications are using your GPU and the amount of resources they are using . If you find something out of place you can kill the process from there.
