So i just came back home and my computer was loud AF, it was my Rx480 nitro's fan going crazy ,i open up TRIXX and i see that the temperature is around 60-65 celsius, which seems crazy to me because my PC was not doing anything.
At first i thought it was because of my currently not so efficient setup (having the PC in a somewhat cramped place with just the stock case fan) + because it's summer and i live in Greece.

But once i turned on the screen (since it was off, the PC was left on though) checked the temp,and went about posting this in a QTDTOT thread (but there was none)...and it cooled down, right now it's at 45 with fans at 0%..

Which seems odd to me,and more than a bit suspicious, Is there any chance my PC has caught something? is my GPU being used for bitcoin mining or something without my knowledge?

help /g/ im scared ':(
>>
to clarify.

I had left my PC on when i left,but had turned off the screen, so when i came back it had been sitting idle for about 6 hours

Monitor GPU usage. If its 100% all the time, you are very likely infected with a crypto mining malware. Had something similar.

>>60791228
this just happened again, When i came it was loud again.

I check TRIXX and it tells me that GPU usage is at 0%
speccy tells me that my Current GPU Clock is at 1214 MHz

and pardon my PC illiteracy, seems a bit high to me for a GPU clocked at 1342 MHz
(but that's probably not how it works, is it?)

what software can i use to check what my GPU usage when my PC is IDLE

>>60791713
mean, it's not really /v/ material. It's not /g/ either, unless there is a dumb question thread.
>>
>>60791734
yeah sorry, it's just that there was dumb question thread so i posted here instead.
So, I'm worried about my PC, and i'm tired of being a worthless pleb
what do i do to help with my current PC situation, And also now, how do i gain the computer smarts like this >>60791713 guy so obviously possesses so i don't have to ask stupid questions and litter your board ?
>>
>>60791734
It's not the question, your desktop and your fisher price cringe worthy apps. Update you drivers
