Hi my processor has recently started topping 100% usage on all games where before it wouldn't do that on games such as fortnite, which it has basically made it unplayable and stream-able at the same time, its does it on all games i play and i'm not sure why? if anyone has any ideas that would be great its a intel core i5-7400

Mentioning the exact model number (not the product number) always helps analyze your system.
Another factor that is overlooked is internet speed, and bandwidth of the site. Too many players at the same time, and with the present worldwide health crisis, the idle play games.

I asked that you mention the model number. Why you gave the product number is curious.
