Microsoft FS2020 Installer weird behavior

Featured Replies

Ran across a 'bug' perhaps in the Installer/Downloader from MS? Since my internet connection is only running @ 12mbs I have plenty of time to just what download go by. Since the installer doesn't show current download speed I had the task manager open to watch the Ethernet speed go by. AS you may know it also shows things like CPU % utilization and GPU % utilization. Well, the installer was using 22% of my GPU so I figured, maybe if I minimize that it might cut back on its % of utilization. On minimize the Installer was now using 82% of my GPU! Ouchie. So much for keeping the GPU cool for the 10 hour install time. 🙂

That wasn't all I noticed when minimized CPU usage went from 10-11% to 32-38%. Guess its better to keep the window open I guess. 🤔

 

Oh yeah for reference my CPU in an AMD 3700X & GPU is an Powercolor Red Devil 5700XT.

My GPU utilisation goes to 99% when the installer is minimised. Go figure. Must be that progress bar giving it a hard time lol

Maybe it's trying to mine some crypto currency when minimized. 🤯 😉

I reckon it's calculating some ambient occlusion on the progress bar.
