palikka0x45 last edited by palikka0x45Hi I have getting some high CPU usages since last update.   I have reported the issue alrealy ~2 weeks ago, but havent got any information back. am i only with this issue? Reinstall didint help. 5900x 1080ti. hardware acceleration fixes this issue, but destroys livestreams/youtube playback. 
 Your OS (Linux, Mac, Windows) Windows 10 Your version of Opera GX Your version is LVL 3 (core: 79.0.4143.73) A screen-shot of the problem if it's related to something not showing as should Included A description of the problem, including as much as information as possible High CPU-usage Steps to (try to) reproduce the issue Update latest Opera updates Expected behavior and actual one New Opera GX version

leocg Moderator Volunteer last edited by@palikka0x45 Hardware acceleration is off, that's probably why you are having a high CPU usage. If you have disabled it, turn it back on.

leocg Moderator Volunteer last edited by@palikka0x45 Hardware acceleration should make videos run better. If it doesn't happen, then maybe there is a incompatibility with your graphics card. Its drivers are up to date?

palikka0x45 last edited by palikka0x45@leocg Drivers are okay. GX ain't. No problems on different browsers. Edit: Im just waiting Chromium update.

MikahS last edited byHello. I've been running to an issue where after some time of using the browser a process seems to appear out of nowhere that consumes a lot of CPU resources. Ending this process doesn't affect the browser in any way. Any idea what might be causing this issue? This happens once a day every time I use the browser.

palikka0x45 last edited by@palikka0x45 said in The High CPU/RAM/ETC Usage Topic - Opera GX:  Still same issue as last time. Hardware Acceleration fixes this, but makes videos/streams/gifs diashow, laggy and unstable.

MikahS last edited by@palikka0x45 Yeah it's the same issue. I also have hardware acceleration turned-off since Discord streaming doesn't work properly with the browser having it turned on.
