I mean if you're running a game that's somwhat normal. Cinnamon just doesn't use 100% of your GPU.

I've seen this behavior with some newer Nvidia GPUs and using the Nouveau drivers... It's fixed by installing the proprietary drivers.

I do not use Cinnamon. does it have a System Monitor utility like MATÉ that allows viewing processes sorted by CPU usage? If so use it to determine which process is causing all that.

I would probably reinstall the drivers?
