Weird CPU issues

Im running 7 accounts and about a month ago the cpu started going up the longer im playing, about an hour or more. Only when I re-log some of my accounts or change systems in game or dock and un dock does the cpu go back down. My system is good, and i haven't had issues until a month ago. 3.40GHz CPU, 12 GB Ram, running AMD Radeon HD 6670.

Any thoughts, please i need to resolve this so i can keep playing.

Your CPU shouldn't be doing anything out of the ordinary unless there's something that needs to be done (in the game). I mean, if you're sitting somewhere staring out into space where you should only have 10% CPU load, and for some reason you've got 50% load, then I don't think ISBoxer is to blame since it doesn't have much of anything to do with increasing overhead.

Are you 100% certain that there aren't other background processes eating up CPU cycles at certain times? An AV running a scan in the background? YouTube videos playing in the background?

I guess you could always try using a different CPU strategy.

Re: Weird CPU issues

Yes im 100% cretin, i mine everyday and its been acting up like this for a week or so. Its when im out in the belt mining that it happens. the rest of the time i have most accounts docked and im only running 1 or 2 and the cpu goes back down to normal levels. At this point every time i change a belt i either have to dock, jump out and back in to the system or just relog to get the cpu back down. i mean its going up to 100% after about 45 min of mining. I lost 6bill on a scam 2 weeks ago so i have been putting in some serious mining hours everyday to get the isk back. Because of this i am 100% sure that its an issue with either the game or the multiboxing app. Any thoughts on what i can do to isolate the cause and or fix it all together?

Re: Weird CPU issues

Unfortunately, I'm unfamiliar with EVE itself so I can't say that I would know what it might be, but if ISBoxer was the cause of high CPU usage then other people would be here talking about it as well. Until that happens, I'm going to guess that something on your computer (hardware/software) is the cause of the issue.

You can also provide a diagnostic for game crashes (yes, I know the game isn't crashing) when you experience this behavior to see if it reveals anything.
