Massive CPU Spikes almost every 5 minutes in actual game

Hello there! For quite some time, I’ve been grappling with the issue outlined in the title. I’ve monitored the in-game performance statistics, and it’s a consistent problem across all games. Roughly every two to five minutes, my CPU latency spikes to over 200 ms.

Below is a screenshot captured during one of these occurrences:

Any help is appreciated! :smile:

I am experiencing the exact same issue. I always thought it was on my end, due to an issue with my computer, but seeing your post makes me wonder if this is actually a problem with Roblox itself. Anyways, it sucks because it makes playing/developing games nearly impossible for me due to the fps dropping to the single digits when the CPU spikes. Hope you can figure it out!

What are your PC specs (CPU, RAM, GPU… etc)? Does it happen outside of that one game? Does it happen outside of Roblox?

If you on a 13th or 14th gen Intel CPU, PLEASE update your BIOS. It’s a known issue that these CPUs are unstable due to issues with old BIOS versions. If you haven’t already, UPDATE IT NOW.

This issue persists only in Roblox and not any other game. I think it’s because of how Roblox manages rendering. Because, while this happens, there are rendering, physics and FPS spikes.

I thought I was the only one experiencing this issue. Seems like it has become a problem for many users. It’s really frustrating, as I have had this issue for almost 1.5 years. Almost when Roblox added Byfron and I still haven’t figured out the issue, although I’ve done many tweaks and modifications.

I’m having the same issue and it’s been really frustrating. I’ve tried reinstalling Windows, Roblox, and my graphics drivers, and I’ve also made sure Roblox is using the dedicated GPU—but nothing has helped. Interestingly, this problem only happens with Roblox; other games run fine. It seems like this could be a Roblox-specific bug.
