I'm not sure what's wrong with my CPU, but it keeps fluctuating abnormally. For instance, I can open chrome and it'll spike to 50% CPU usage for about a second before it drops to 10%. I've actually had this problem a couple months ago, and reformatting my computer solved it. I'm looking for a way to resolve this problem without reformatting my computer. It doesn't make sense to me; I've ran Norton 360 and Malwarebytes and nothing was detected. I looked through taskmgr and running AV scans causes my CPU usage to spike to 50%. I can copy files in winrar and that'll make the CPU usage spike all the way to 70%. Taskmgr doesn't show anything suspicious. I'm used to having 1% usage all the time. Not 70. I'm afraid I might have to reformat my system again.
