Hi. The Issue I'm having is that I will get random lag. It's not constant, I'll be playing fine and then it will lag. Play fine, lag again. It happens in all multiplayer based games except one. I've been monitoring task manager and the issue seems to be power related.

It will say the game is using very high power, while cpu, memory and gpu will spike. I've never had problems before till recent months and have no clue why. It's even weirder because there are days and times where I have no problems what so ever.

It seems like it's internet/connection based since it never happens in sp games. Before anyone asks, I already ruled out that someone could be on Netflix or some other device that also uses internet and that's not the case. It's really confusing.
