That's strange considering most games do not put a full load on your system, especially not the CPU. Doom Eternal, in particular, has both low GPU and CPU usage

That's strange considering most games do not put a full load on your system, especially not the CPU. Doom Eternal, in particular, has both low GPU and CPU usage. So I'm having trouble seeing how you got your full load. How did you measure? MSI Afterburner + Riva Statistics Server for OSD is good for this. BTW: Death metal is a particular genre, and Doom's soundtrack is not it. This crap is death metal: https://youtu.be/482tDopNzoc?t=69 https://youtu.be/482tDopNzoc?t=69
