    whenver i start CPU stress test prime 95 while running kombustor, the loading of GPU in kombustor drop to around 60% and the temp of GPU drop accordingly. when i stop the prime 95, the loading and temp of GPU rise again, why?

    if lack of power the GPU should be running slower but now is the percentage of loading lower

    my guess is that high CPU load affects some sort of driver instructions that affect rendering... I dont think its power as even if you disable 3 out of 4 CPu cores you still get the same result.
