NVIDIA Releases GeForce 430.53 Hotfix Driver, Fixing High CPU Utilization Caused by Telemetry

Slizzo · May 4, 2019

Well, I never put my computer to sleep so there's that then.

Just noticed NVIDIA drivers using 30% CPU of my laptop's CPU (i5 6500T), and some telemetry thing was running (even though NVCleanstall should've removed that). Gonna do a clean install. Waiting for the latest driver to be added to NVCleanstall.

TFW the Intel driver update utility uses fewer resources than NVIDIA's drivers...

Try uninstalling the NV drivers first, then reboot, then run NVCleanstall, that should remove all telemetry. Would appreciate if you could test and confirm

I'm using this driver, noticed zero problems.

With Geforce driver version 419.67, I have 0% CPU utilization showing in Task Manager.

I reran NVCleanstall and did clean install instead of express. Seems to have fixed the issue for now. Will try what you said if it happens again.

Oh, you'd know.

30% CPU usage by the NVIDIA drivers was back on my laptop. Ended up just uninstalling 430.39 and went back to 419.35. I'll wait til the version without the issue is added to NVCleanstall.

NVIDIA really needs to learn how to code. All of the other drivers on my laptop (even ones from Clevo for the keyboard and the Synaptics trackpad drivers) have 0% CPU usage most of the time.
