GPU Usage

#1 · 29/09/2025, 08:47

Hey i have been using spacedesk for a couple of hours and it works great (i have turned the laptop monitor as my second monitor for my main pc) but i have noticed that when videos play on that monitor my gpu usage spikes to 40-50%. Any help? The connection is over WIFI. My specs are: RX 590 GPU and Ryzen 5 3600 CPU.

Hi @mpaok,

This is expected you have a video or if you have a game running and you’re using Hardware Encoding. You may also try Software Encoding to compare its performance.
