High temps/GPU usage in game lobby after update.

I don't know what happened after update and if it's an issue with the new lobby but my GPU is going nuts in the lobby. Games are fine but if I leave the lobby running for 10+ minutes, temps and GPU is rising to crazy levels. Capping fps didn't help at all.

    Wow you're not kidding. I assume you mean you capped the fps in the ingame settings? If you have nvidia try going into the nvidia control panel and in the part where you can change settings for individual games change the max frame rate to 60 (or 120 or whatever) and the "background application max frame rate" to 20. I think that might have fixed the issue for me.

    Noticed the same. Before the update my GPU was on max 70% while running DBD, now it's on 100% if I don't cap the game down to 30 FPS on high graphics. Tried the game on my partners PC with a Nvidia GPU from this year and DBD needs more power than some AAA games.
