High CPU and memory for unknown reason
Hello,
I got myself a pretty nice, pretty fast Acer Aspire laptop, about 3 months ago. It's definitely better than my old Acer Aspire. This one has more gb, more memory and a better video card. It can run a few games, it can run my art software, and it can handle that I'm such a fangirl for movies and tv shows. Perfect for me.
Though, I'm running into a problem. The fan is always overworking in my opinion. As soon as I even just open my browser, my CPU is already at 30 and sometimes peaks to 100 out of nowhere and my fan is out of control.
With my old laptop, it was superfetch, superfetch is disabled now, as are some other programs that constantly made my CPU peak. But it's still peaking! Or staying between 30-50 for no reason, or at least not a visible one.
I'm not blaming my CPU to peak whenever I'm gaming or using my art stuff, but when I'm only just on the internet... or writing a story in Word? Also I doubt it's a virus, I know how to keep my laptop clean and I already scanned my entire laptop for viruses or malware or anything and my scanners can't find anything.
For a moment, it seemed like facebook was taking up a lot of memory, but even if it did, my laptop shouldn't panic so much just for facebook.
I'm a bit stuck here.
Hope someone can help me! :)
