Not so long ago, NVIDIA released version 430.39 of the graphics driver for the Windows platform with support for the May OS update from Microsoft. Among other things, the new driver version includes support for new processors, G-Sync compatible monitors, etc.
The driver contains important updates, but some users have noticed that using it leads to high CPU usage. Online sources report that this is due to the "nvcontainer" process, which even when idle uses 10% of the CPU power. Users say that restarting the PC solves the problem for a while, but later it resumes, and the process can take up to 15-20% of computing power.
NVIDIA has acknowledged the problem. A solution is currently being sought. On the official forum, an NVIDIA employee reported that the developers were able to reproduce the problem and began to fix it. According to some information, the prepared fix is already at the testing stage and will soon begin to be distributed among users.
At the moment, there are no solutions to the problem with CPU usage after installing the video driver version 430.39. Before an official fix pack is released, users experiencing this issue are advised to revert to a previous version of their graphics driver.
