GPU Utilization Differences When Running UE5 Build Files on Windows 10 vs Windows 11

Hello,

Since my English isn’t very strong, I used GPT to translate this. I apologize if any parts sound awkward.

While testing a UE5 build file, I observed a striking difference in GPU utilization in Task Manager between Windows 10 and Windows 11:

  • On Windows 10, GPU usage was below 1%.
  • On Windows 11, GPU usage ranged between 80% and 90%.

I would like to understand why the same build file shows such different GPU utilization depending on the Windows version.

Thank you.

Additional Information:

  • Test PC GPU Specifications:

    • Windows 10 PC: RTX 3060 Ti
    • Windows 11 PC: RTX 3060 Ti

  • Additional Observation:

    • I also checked the GPU usage after upgrading my pc from Windows 10 to Windows 11, and the same issue was observed.

  • Test Project Details:

    • The tests were conducted using the UE Cropout Sample Project build file (UE5.3/UE5.4/shipping/development/DirectX12, built on Windows 10).
