    Hi. Im having trouble with my gigabyte GTX 760 OC.
    The problem is when i just have windows running no games the GPU load is at 99%, and when i try to play any game my FPS are really low, like 5-10 FPS. The strange thing is when i open the task manager the GPU load goes to 0% and the games run just fine.
    Can someone tell whats wrong PLS.

    That sounds like a bitcoin virus, download "Process Explorer" to identify the culprit process and end it.

    Have you done a virus scan and checked for malware.

    Have you thought about a fresh install of windows.

    Try Malwarebytes, OP. This is really weird and is probably caused by a virus.
