GPU Utilization and Clock Spikes After Update to Version 2.4.15

Hello Signal RGB Support Team,

After updating to Version 2.4.15, I’ve been experiencing unusual GPU behavior while running Signal RGB. Specifically:

  • GPU utilization fluctuates between 10%-20% at idle.
  • Both GPU clock speed and memory clock spike frequently when idle. For example, my GPU clock jumps from its usual 210 MHz idle state to 2595 MHz.

I’ve monitored this using MSI Afterburner and confirmed that once Signal RGB is closed, GPU utilization drops back to 0%-2%, and all clock speeds return to normal. This issue started after the recent update, and I’m unsure if this is a bug or related to the shift back to DirectX for rendering.

The fluctuations and spikes at idle are concerning, as it is putting unnecessary strain on my GPU when it should be idle. Any guidance or troubleshooting steps would be greatly appreciated.

System Details:

  • Signal RGB Version: 2.4.15
  • GPU: Gigabyte Gaming OC 4080 Super
  • OS: Windows 11

Thank you for your help!

Hey guys! Try out version 2.4.22, We swapped the default renderer to an updated version of Ultralight which should show much better resource usage (at the cost of some features like WebGL)
