He's correct, 1803 made me reduce ALL my profile settings. I bet only people who pushed their GPU very close to the edge noticed this. If your settings were not very demanding, I bet you wouldn't even notice the switch. I also bet if a person in this scenario had paid attention to their GPU usage before and after they would have seen a huge spike in usage... I have thrown every trick and tweak, including the kitchen sink at this issue to no avail.

Starting to wonder if MS added an ultra hidden crypto miner in the OS to make a few bucks!! LOL :P

Seriously starting to wonder if this was also the cause of my R9 270X to fail (black screen when the GPU goes into a standard resolution, low-def such as safe mode still works)… At least my ancient HD 5770 still works so I can wait for Vega prices to fall or Navi to be released (Polaris sucks for madVR and is therefore not an option)
