Synapse 3.0| GPU usage?! | Razer Insider
Skip to main content
Hey Guys,



Recently I've been running in to some issues where the Synapse is using my GPU... It has never done this before.



How I noticed:

- In idle state my CPU and GPU fans started to ramp up.

- FPS drops in games where I usually am running 200+ FPS.

- (Check Screenshot)







So yeah... Can anyone explain to me as to why razer is using my GPU?

Hi there! Thanks for posting your Razer Synapse 3's concern here. The Razer Lighting Engine Helper process is utilized to render the Razer Synapse 3's "Ambient awareness" effect. The computer's CPU/GPU usage will depend on how many layers of the Chroma effect, different viewports, chroma effects, and screen resolution settings are running in your computer's background.

Hey, thank you for replying, what if I told you I had only 1 layer running (static blue) and no other profile?

Does that explain the amount GPU usage?

And check this out, 1 layer is using nearly 20-30% of a 2080 TI!!!! How rad is that?!
