Hello,

I have issues understanding how it physically possible to gain 20C instantly even with 100% CPU. Thermodynamics taught me that there is a certain inertia in all systems.
Is any software going to 28% making your computer go that hot? You can try a benchmark test to see the result. Is that load on a single core? 28% of one core on a quad-core system is 6% of the total CPU load.

Would you please be able to give the Zip of your log files for analysis? I pasted in my forum signature how to create it.
Also, could you take a screenshot of the task manager when the issue occurs so I can see which part is higher?

Plugging an external monitor through USB doesn't exercise the same part of the computer as the graphics card, so the difference is normal. The video has to be compressed and then sent through the USB, this takes computation.
The higher the rate of display changes, the more data to ship, the higher the effort. Our algorithm is adaptative, so it changes based on bandwidth available.

Kind regards,
Alban
