  • Just a guess... what happens if you close Chrome? What other programs are running? Have you rebooted? – Mokubai Dec 04 '20 at 15:22

The "Client Server Runtime Process" (or csrss.exe) is an essential Windows component and does not use heavily the GPU. However, many bitcoin mining viruses love to disguise themselves as this process, and they do use the GPU.

I suggest using Process Explorer to verify that the running process is indeed C:\Windows\System32\csrss.exe.

If that truly the case and this is the legitimate process, then something is wrong with Windows. Start with running the commands sfc /scannow and the DISM command in the article. If this doesn't help, do a Repair Install of Windows 10 with an In-place Upgrade.

If the process is not legitimate, run deep antivirus scans using at least Windows Defender and Malwarebytes. For more advice see the post How can I remove malicious spyware, malware, adware, viruses, trojans or rootkits from my PC?

  • I found "verify" button in `procexp` and it showed "verified" against publisher. Although at the moment of test, `csrss` was not consuming `GPU` while `dwm` was. Verifying of it also shown ok. – Dims Dec 04 '20 at 23:32
  • Desktop Window Manager (dwm.exe) renders all those pretty effects in Windows and cannot be turned off. It should use fairly minimal resources, except perhaps for some intense graphical applications (although I have never encountered such). – harrymc Dec 05 '20 at 08:37
